Monolithic co-aerogels of carbon/titanium dioxide as three dimensional nanostructured electrodes for energy storage

► We developed a simple one-pot method for the synthesis of co-gel of carbon and TiO2. ► The co-aerogel of carbon and TiO2 demonstrated superior electrochemcial properties for Li battery. ► We demonstrated the existence of interconnected carbon and metal oxide network in the co-aerogel structures.
