Multicomponent materials with various double cations have been studied as anode materials of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Heterostructures formed by coupling different-bandgap nanocrystals enhance the surface reaction kinetics and facilitate charge transport because of the internal electric field at the heterointerface. Accordingly, metal selenites can be considered efficient anode materials of LIBs because they transform into metal selenide and oxide nanocrystals in the first cycle.

Novel yolk-shell-structured microspheres consisting of N-doped-carbon-coated metal-oxide hollow nanospheres are designed as efficient anode materials for lithium-ion batteries and synthesized via a spray pyrolysis process. A NiMoO4 yolk-shell architecture formed via spray pyrolysis is transformed into equally structured NiSe2-MoSe2 composite microspheres. Because of the complementary effect between the Ni and Mo components that prevents severe crystal growth during selenization, NiSe2-MoSe2 nanocrystals are uniformly distributed over the yolk-shell structure.
