To address this issue, we design a hybrid structure of N-doped carbon fibers@SnO_2 nanoflowers(NC@SnO_2) to overcome it in this work. The hybrid NC@SnO_2 is synthesized through the hydrothermal growth of SnO_2 nanoflowers on the surface of N-doped carbon fibers obtained by electrospinning. The NC is introduced not only to provide a support framework in guiding the growth of the SnO_2 nanoflowers and prevent the flower-like structures from agglomeration, but also serve as a conductive network to accelerate electronic transmission along one-dimensional structure effectively. When the hybrid NC@SnO_2 was served as anode, it exhibits a high discharge capacity of 750 Ah g-1 at 1 A g-1 after 100 cycles in Li-ion battery and 270 mAh g-1 at 100 mA g-1 for 100 cycles in Na-ion battery, respectively.展开更多
