Antimony-doped　tin　oxide　(ATO)　nanotubes　were　synthesized　by　a　modified　template　method　in　this　work.　The　nanotubes,　which　were　similar　to　200　nm　in　diameter　and　10-20　nm　in　wall　thickness,　were　composed　of　a　large　number　of　5-15　nm　ATO　nanocrystals.　The　doping　level　of　Sb　in　the　ATO　could　be　varied　by　the　experimental　conditions.　ATO　nanotubes　with　Sn:Sb　ratios　of　9:1　or　5:1,　in　particular,　were　good　reversible　Li　storage　materials,　showing　high　capacities　and　good　cyclability　at　both　common　and　high　rates　of　charge　and　discharge.　(C)　2011　Elsevier　B.V.　All　rights　reserved.
