Abstract: Peapod-like carbon-encapsulated cobalt chalcogenide nanowires are designed and synthesized by a facile method. The nanowires show excellent electrochemical performance for sodium storage, suggesting that chalcogenides, especially selenides, have potential as advanced anodes for sodium-ion batteries.
