Abstract With the aim of enhanced cyclic stability and rate capability for lithium storage of MnS‐based anode materials, a composite consisting of mesoporous MnS nanoparticles and nitrogen and sulfur co‐doped graphene (NS‐G/MnS) can be synthesized by a facile one‐pot solvothermal procedure with thiourea as the single nitrogen and sulfur precursor. The resultant composite serves as an active anode material for lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) and exhibits a large specific capacity, good rate capability, and excellent cyclic stability. The superior lithium storage property can be ascribed to the synergistic effect between the NS‐G nanosheets and mesoporous MnS nanoparticles. The NS‐G/MnS composite with superior lithium storage properties can be considered as a promising candidate for high‐performance LIB anodes.
