A simple synthetic approach for graphene‐templated nanostructured MnO 2 nanowires self‐inserted with Co 3 O 4 nanocages is proposed in this work. The Co 3 O 4 nanocages were penetrated in situ by MnO 2 nanowires. As an anode, the as‐obtained MnO 2 –Co 3 O 4 –RGO composite exhibits remarkable enhanced performance compared with the MnO 2 –RGO and Co 3 O 4 –RGO samples. The MnO 2 –Co 3 O 4 –RGO electrode delivers a reversible capacity of up to 577.4 mA h g −1 after 400 cycles at 500 mA g −1 and the Coulombic efficiency of MnO 2 –Co 3 O 4 –RGO is about 96 %.
