Abstract

ZnSb nanotubes were grown through a template free electrodeposition method under over-potential conditions. The growth of the nanotubes was attributed to the template effect from H₂ bubbles. Due to their hollow structure, the ZnSb nanotubes depicted better Li ion storage performance compared to that of ZnSb nanoparticles deposited under different conditions.
