A hierarchical multi-shell structure of MoO2 is synthesized through a template-free one-pot solvothermal method. The relative MoO2 electrode exhibits high reversible specific capacity of 780 mA h g−1 after 40 cycles, good stability, high capacity retention and improved rate performance in the lithiu...
