Sumario:Embedded Si/graphene composite was fabricated by a novel method, which was in situ generated SiO(2) particles on graphene sheets followed by magnesium-thermal reduction. The tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and flake graphite was used as original materials. On the one hand, the unique structure of as-obtained composite accommodated the large volume change to some extent. Simultaneously, it enhanced electronic conductivity during Li-ion insertion/extraction. The MR-Si/G composite is used as the anode material for lithium ion batteries, which shows high reversible capacity and ascendant cycling stability reach to 950 mAh·g(−1) at a current density of 50 mA·g(−1) after 60 cycles. These may be conducive to the further advancement of Si-based composite anode design.
