High capacity retention ratios up to 88% could be achieved after 1000 cycles at a current density of 2 A/g. The out- standing cycling stability was primarily attributed to the combination of mixed transition metal oxides and rGO, which not only maintains a high electrical conductivity for the overall electrode but also prevents the aggregation and volume expansion of electrochemical materials during the cycling processes.展开更多
