Abstract

A genetically modified bacterial surface not only serves as a confined environment for controlling the monodispersity of particle size, but also provides a carbon source in situ. The carbon coated SnO₂ composite exhibits good lithium storage properties as an anode electrode, which are due to the ultrasmall size of the particles, the carbon coating and mesoporous structure.
