The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion battery materials, and discloses a nitrogen-doped mesonphase carbosphere and a preparation method and application thereof. The nitrogen-doped mesonphase carbosphere comprises a mesonphase carbosphere body and nitrogen, wherein the nitrogen is doped in a lamellar structure of the mesonphase carbosphere body. The preparation method comprises the following steps: heating asphalt to a semi-solidified state, then introducing naphthalene steam to obtain isotropic pitch, carrying out a thermal polycondensation reaction on the isotropic pitch, then conducting cooling, carrying out extracting, subjecting an aqueous extract to filtering, cleaning and drying so as to obtain the mesonphase carbosphere body, uniformly mixing the mesonphase carbosphere body, a defect introducing agent and a polar solvent, successively conducting drying and sintering to obtain a mesonphase carbosphere body with defects, mixing the mesonphase carbosphere body with defects with ammonia water, carrying out a heating reaction, conducting filtering, and cleaning filter residues to obtain the nitrogen-doped mesonphase carbosphere. According to the nitrogen-doped mesonphase carbosphere synthesized by using the method, the uniformity of the nitrogen-doped mesonphase carbosphere can be greatly improved, and the nitrogen-doped mesonphase carbosphere has excellent charge-discharge capacity and structural stability.
