✦ Synopsis


We report an anhydrous, autogenic technique for synthesizing electronically interconnected, carbonencapsulated, nanoparticulate anatase anode materials (TiO 2 -C) for lithium-ion batteries. The TiO 2 -C nanoparticles provide a reversible capacity of ∼200 mAh g -1 , which exceeds the theoretical capacity of the commercially attractive spinel anode, Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 (175 mAh g -1 ) and is competitive with the capacity reported for other TiO 2 products. The processing method is extremely versatile and has implications for preparing, in a single step, a wide variety of electrochemically active compounds that are coated, in situ, with carbon.

## Abstract The increasing demand for portable energy has generated significant research interest in nanostructured electrode materials, because of their large interfacial contact area with the electrolyte and short path lengths for Li ion transport. To date, titanium dioxide (TiO~2~) has been wide
