Prelithiated, electrospun α-Fe2O3 nanofibers display an exceptional cycleability when it is paired with commercial LiMn2O4 cathode in full-cell assembly. The performance of such α-Fe2O3 nanofibers is mainly due to the presence of unique morphology with porous structure, appropriate mass balance, and...
