and the University of Illinois at Urbana – Champaign has developed a double-layered silicon-germanium nanotube array as an anode material for high-capacity lithium-ion batteries. this system is that it requires high- power-rate properties, due to the inherently low electron conductivity and ion diffusivity of silicon.
