Totally tubular electrodes : A new design is proposed for nanostructured electrodes for high‐performance lithium batteries (see picture) based on the use of carbon tube‐in‐tube (CTIT) as both a nanoreactor and an efficient ion‐ and electron‐conducting network. A V 2 O 5 /CTIT nanocomposite electrode is prepared to demonstrate this concept. The resulting materials exhibit a significant improved lithium‐storage performance.
