Graphene, a one-atom layer of graphite, possesses unique two dimensional structure and excellent electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. It is considered as one of the most promising candidates for the future electrode materials for lithium ion batteries. Since the microstructure of the electrode material has great influence on its performance, the synthesis of electrode materials with graphene is widely studied to obtain specific morphologies and microstructures with great electrochemical performance improvements. In this review, we highlight recent advancements in the studies of the graphene-containing materials used in lithium ion batteries. Graphene acts as not only a mechanically stable buffer to accommodate the volume effect during cycling, but also a conductive network to enhance the electric conductivity of the anode composite materials. The graphene-containing anode materials can exhibit better cycling and rate performances. Especially, when forming optimized microstructures, such as sandwich-like blocks or other well-controlled encapsulating structures, the graphene can significantly improve electrochemical properties of anode composite materials. A continuous 3D conductive network formed by graphene in the cathode composite materials can effectively improve the electron and ion transportation. Additionally, graphene used as the conductive additive can achieve better charge/discharge performance with a much lower adding amount than those of commercial carbon-based additives. A prospect for future research developments in this field is proposed at the end of this review. Contents
