Abstract:	Ultrafine LiMn 2O 4/carbon nanotube (CNT) nanocomposite is synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal treatment. In the nanocomposite, LiMn 2O 4 nanoparticles of 10-20 nm in diameters are well crystallized and uniformly distributed in the CNT matrix. The CNTs not only provide a conductive matrix, facilitating fast electron transport, but also effectively reduce agglomeration of LiMn 2O 4 nanoparticles. The nano-LiMn 2O 4/CNT nanocomposite exhibits superior rate capability and cycling stability compared with the sol-gel synthesized LiMn 2O 4, making it promising for high-power applications. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
