In this work, rattle-type ball-in-ball V2O5 hollow microspheres are controllably synthesized with the assistance of carbon colloidal spheres as hard templates. Carbon spheres@vanadium-precursor (CS@V) core–shell composite microspheres are first prepared through a one-step solvothermal method. The co...
