High capacity and superlong cycle life of Li3VO4 have been actualized via carbon hybridization and N doping. The Li3VO4/N doped C (Li3VO4/N–C) that fabricated via an in situ carbonization method based on an intermedial solution phase delivers initial discharge and charge capacities of 686 and 540 mAh g−1 at a specific current of 0.15 A g−1, which maintain of 538 and 536 mAh g−1 after 800 cycles, showing excellent cycle stability. Meanwhile, the Li3VO4/N–C exhibits superior rate performance and long life performance. After 150 cycles at various specific currents from 0.1 to 2.0 A g−1, the discharge and charge capacities can restore 100% when reverting the specific current to 0.1 A g−1. After 1100 cycles at a specific current of 2.0 A g−1, the discharge and charge capacities can maintain of 340 and 337 mAh g−1, showing no capacity attenuation in cycling.
