Reserving interior void space in the cable-like structure of multiwalled carbon nanotubes-in-SnO2-in-carbon layer (MWNTs@SnO2@C) is reported for the first time. Such a design enables the structure performing excellent for Li and Na storage, which benefit from the good electrical conductivity of MWNT...
