Mono-dispersed single-crystalline LiMnPO4 nanobelts and nanorods have been successfully prepared via a simple hydrothermal method. With the basis of the experimental results, a possible mechanism for the formation of the monodispersed LiMnPO4 nanobelts and nanorods was proposed. Compared to our previously proposed flower-like, stamen-like LiMnPO4/C nanostructures selfassembled with (010) nanosheets and [001] nanorods, the corresponding monodispersed nanoparticles express more excellent electrochemical performances due to the full carbon-coating along the surface. Moreover, since of the narrowed size along [100] the LiMnPO4@C nanorods derive much higher discharge capacity compared to the LiMnPO4@C nanobelts.
