The development of nanotechnology and energy-related technologies in the past three decades has led to an increased interest in the application of carbon fiber-based materials in electrochemical energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors, Li/Na-ion batteries. However, the electrochemical performance of carbon fiber-based materials is closely related to their structure and fabrication methods. Therefore, how to control the micro-nanostructure of carbon fiber-based materials and gain a deep understanding of the relationship between their electrochemical performance, structure, and fabrication methods is an essential requirement for expanding the application of these materials in electrochemical energy storage devices. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the preparation of carbon fiber-based materials, structural control, and the optimization of their electrochemical performance when used as negative electrodes in Li/Na-ion batteries. It is intended to serve as a guide for researchers and practitioners in the field, offering both theoretical and experimental evidence for the electrochemical applications of carbon fiber-based materials.
