Germanium is considered as a promising anode material because of its comparable lithium and sodium storage capability, but it usually exhibits poor cycling stability due to the large volume variation during lithium or sodium uptake and release processes. In this paper, germanium@graphene nanofibers are first obtained through electrospinning followed by calcination. Then atomic layer deposition is used to fabricate germanium@ graphene@TiO2 core-shell nanofi bers (Ge@G@TiO2 NFs) as anode materials for lithium and sodium ion batteries (LIBs and SIBs). Graphene and TiO2 can double protect the germanium nanofi bers in charge and discharge processes. The Ge@G@TiO2 NFs composite as an anode material is versatile and exhibits enhanced electrochemical performance for LIBs and SIBs. The capacity of the Ge@G@TiO2 NFs composite can be maintained at 1050 mA h g(-1) (100th cycle) and 182 mA h g(-1) (250th cycle) for LIBs and SIBs, respectively, at a current density of 100 mA g(-1), showing high capacity and good cycling stability (much better than that of Ge nanofi bers or Ge@G nanofibers).
