Abstract
Graphene has demonstrated great potential to tackle the challenges facing lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to its unique physical and electronic properties. In this chapter, most recent advances in the rational design and preparation of graphene-containing nanocomposites containing a wide range of electrode materials for LIBs are presented. The synthetic routes to graphene-containing electrodes as well as their structural configurations and electrochemical performances are highlighted. The lithium storage properties of the hybrids and the multiple functions of graphene are discussed.
