A Hollow‐Shell Structured V2O5 Electrode‐Based Symmetric Full Li‐Ion Battery with Highest Capacity

The symmetric batteries with an electrode material possessing dual cathodic and anodic properties are regarded as an ideal battery configuration because of their distinctive advantages over the asymmetric batteries in terms of fabrication process, cost, and safety concerns. However, the development of high‐performance symmetric batteries is highly challenging due to the limited availability of suitable symmetric electrode materials with such properties of highly reversible capacity. Herein, a triple‐hollow‐shell structured V₂O₅ (THS‐V₂O₅) symmetric electrode material with a reversible capacity of >400 mAh g^?1 between 1.5 and 4.0 V and >600 mAh g^?1 between 0.1 and 3.0 V, respectively, when used as the cathode and anode, is reported. The THS‐V₂O₅ electrodes assembled symmetric full lithium‐ion battery (LIB) exhibits a reversible capacity of ≈290 mAh g^?1 between 2 and 4.0 V, the best performed symmetric energy storage systems reported to date. The unique triple‐shell structured electrode makes the symmetric LIB possessing very high initial coulombic efficiency (94.2%), outstanding cycling stability (with 94% capacity retained after 1000 cycles), and excellent rate performance (over 140 mAh g^?1 at 1000 mA g^?1). The demonstrated approach in this work leaps forward the symmetric LIB performance and paves a way to develop high‐performance symmetric battery electrode materials.     

Mesoporous MoS2 as a Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Exhibiting Pseudocapacitive Li and Na‐Ion Charge Storage

The ion insertion properties of MoS₂ continue to be of widespread interest for energy storage. While much of the current work on MoS₂ has been focused on the high capacity four‐electron reduction reaction, this process is prone to poor reversibility. Traditional ion intercalation reactions are highlighted and it is demonstrated that ordered mesoporous thin films of MoS₂ can be utilized as a pseudocapacitive energy storage material with a specific capacity of 173 mAh g^?1 for Li‐ions and 118 mAh g^?1 for Na‐ions at 1 mV s^?1. Utilizing synchrotron grazing incidence X‐ray diffraction techniques, fast electrochemical kinetics are correlated with the ordered porous structure and with an iso‐oriented crystal structure. When Li‐ions are utilized, the material can be charged and discharged in 20 seconds while still achieving a specific capacity of 140 mAh g^?1. Moreover, the nanoscale architecture of mesoporous MoS₂ retains this level of lithium capacity for 10 000 cycles. A detailed electrochemical kinetic analysis indicates that energy storage for both ions in MoS₂ is due to a pseudocapacitive mechanism.     

Incorporating Solvate and Solid Electrolytes for All‐Solid‐State Li2S Batteries with High Capacity and Long Cycle Life

The development of all‐solid‐state lithium–sulfur batteries is hindered by the poor interfacial properties at solid electrolyte (SE)/electrode interfaces. The interface is modified by employing the highly concentrated solvate electrolyte, (MeCN)₂?LiTFSI:TTE, as an interlayer material at the electrolyte/electrode interfaces. The incorporation of an interlayer significantly improves the cycling performance of solid‐state Li₂S batteries compared to the bare counterpart, exhibiting a specific capacity of 760 mAh g^?1 at cycle 100 (330 mAh g^?1 for the bare cell). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy shows that the interfacial resistance of the interlayer‐modified cell gradually decreases as a function of cycle number, while the impedance of the bare cell remains almost constant. Cross‐section scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/ energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS) measurements on the interlayer‐modified cell confirm the permeation of solvate into the cathode and the SE with electrochemical cycling, which is related to the decrease in cell impedance. In order to mimic the full permeation of the solvate across the entire cell, the solvate is directly mixed with the SE to form a “solvSEM” electrolyte. The hybrid Li₂S cell using a solvSEM electrolyte exhibits superior cycling performance compared to the solid‐state cells, in terms of Li₂S loading, Li₂S utilization, and cycling stability. The improved performance is due to the favorable ionic contact at the battery interfaces.     

Dial the Mechanism Switch of VN from Conversion to Intercalation toward Long Cycling Sodium‐Ion Battery

Transition metal nitrides are promising energy storage materials in regard to good metallic conductivity and high theoretical specific capacity, but their cycling stability is impeded by the huge volume change caused by the conversion reaction mechanism. Here, a simple strategy to produce an intercalation pseudocapacitive‐type vanadium nitride (VN) by one‐step ammonification of V₂C MXene for sodium‐ion batteries is reported. Profiting from a distinctive layered structure pillared by Al atoms in the layer spacing, it delivers a high capacity of 372 mA h g^?1 at 50 mA g^?1 and a desirable rate performance. More importantly, it shows remarkably long cycling stability over 7500 cycles without capacity attenuation at 500 mA g^?1. As expected, it is found that the intercalation pseudocapacitance plays an important role in the excellent performance, by using in situ X‐ray diffraction and ex situ X‐ray absorption structure characterization. Even more remarkable, are the high energy and power density of the sodium‐ion capacitor after coupling with a carbon‐based cathode. The hybrid device possesses an energy density of 78.43 Wh kg^?1 at power density of 260 W kg^?1. The results clearly show that such a unique‐layered VN with outstanding Na storage capability is an excellent new material for energy storage systems.     

Superior Lithium Storage Properties of β‐FeOOH

Several crystal forms of FeOOH are recently reported to be highly promising for lithium storage due to their high capacity, low cost, and environmental friendliness. In particular, β‐FeOOH has shown a capacity of ≈1000 mAh g^?1, which is comparable to other promising iron‐based anodes, such as Fe₂O₃ and Fe₃O_4. However, its storage mechanisms are unclear and the potential for further improvement remains unexplored. Here, it is shown that this material can have a very high reversible capacity of ≈1400 mAh g^?1, which is 20%–40% higher than Fe₂O₃ and Fe₃O₄. Such a high capacity is delivered from a series of reactions including intercalation and conversion reactions, formation/deformation of solid‐state electrolyte interface layers and interfacial storage. The mechanisms are studied by a combination of electrochemical and X‐ray absorption near edge spectroscopic approaches. Moreover, very long cycling performance, that is, after even more than 3000 cycles the material still has a significant capacity of more than 800 mAh g^?1, is obtained by a simple electrode design involving introducing a rigid support into porous electrodes. Such long cycling performance is for the first time achieved for high‐capacity materials based on conversion reactions.

Sodium ion batteries (NIBs) have become attractive promising alternatives to lithium ion batteries in a broad field of future energy storage applications. The development of high‐performance anode materials has become an essential factor and a great challenge toward satisfying the requirements for NIBs, advancement. This work is the first report on GeS₂ nanocomposites uniformly distributed on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as promising anode materials for NIBs prepared via a facile hydrothermal synthesis and a unique carbo‐thermal annealing. The results show that the GeS₂/rGO hybrid anode yields a high reversible specific capacity of 805 mA h g^?1 beyond the theoretical capacity, an excellent rate capability of 616 mA h g^?1 at 5 A g^?1, and a cycle retention of 89.4% after 100 cycles. A combined ex situ characterization study reveals that the electrochemically driven amorphization plays a key role in achieving efficient sodium storage by accommodating excess sodium ions in the electrode materials. Understanding the sequential conversion‐alloying reaction mechanism for GeS₂/rGO hybrid anodes provides a new approach for developing high‐performance energy storage applications.     

CuS Microspheres with Tunable Interlayer Space and Micropore as a High‐Rate and Long‐Life Anode for Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Layered transition metal sulfides (LTMSs) have tremendous commercial potential in anode materials for sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) in large‐scale energy storage application. However, it is a great challenge for most LTMS electrodes to have long cycling life and high‐rate capability due to their larger volume expansion and the formation of soluble polysulfide intermediates caused by the conversion reaction. Herein, layered CuS microspheres with tunable interlayer space and pore volumes are reported through a cost‐effective interaction method using a cationic surfactant of cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB). The CuS–CTAB microsphere as an anode for SIBs reveals a high reversible capacity of 684.6 mAh g^?1 at 0.1 A g^?1, and 312.5 mAh g^?1 at 10 A g^?1 after 1000 cycles with high capacity retention of 90.6%. The excellent electrochemical performance is attributed to the unique structure of this material, and a high pseudocapacitive contribution ensures its high‐rate performance. Moreover, in situ X‐ray diffraction is applied to investigate their sodium storage mechanism. It is found that the long chain CTAB in the CuS provides buffer space, traps polysulfides, and restrains the further growth of Cu particles during the conversion reaction process that ensure the long cycling stability and high reversibility of the electrode material.

In particular, the significant effects of the MTMO morphology, micro/nanostructure, and crystallinity on battery performance are highlighted. Furthermore, the future trends and prospects, as well as potential problems, are presented to further develop advanced MTMO anodes for more promising and large‐scale commercial applications of lithium‐ion batteries.     

Ultrahigh‐Energy‐Density Lithium‐Ion Batteries Based on a High‐Capacity Anode and a High‐Voltage Cathode with an Electroconductive Nanoparticle Shell

The combination of high‐capacity anodes and high‐voltage cathodes has garnered a great deal of attention in the pursuit of high‐energy‐density lithium‐ion batteries. As a facile and scalable electrode‐architecture strategy to achieve this goal, a direct one‐pot decoration of high‐capacity silicon (Si) anode materials and of high‐voltage LiCoO₂ (LCO) cathode materials is demonstrated with colloidal nanoparticles composed of electroconductive antimony‐doped tin oxide (ATO). The unusual ATO nanoparticle shells enhance electronic conduction in the LCO and Si electrode materials and mitigate unwanted interfacial side reactions between the electrode materials and liquid electrolytes. The ATO‐coated LCO materials (ATO‐LCO) enable the construction of a high‐mass‐loading cathode and suppress the dissolution of cobalt and the generation of by‐products during high‐voltage cycling. In addition, the ATO‐coated Si (ATO‐Si) anodes exhibit highly stable capacity retention upon cycling. Integration of the high‐voltage ATO‐LCO cathode and high‐capacity ATO‐Si anode into a full cell configuration brings unprecedented improvements in the volumetric energy density and in the cycling performance compared to a commercialized cell system composed of LCO/graphite.

To accommodate the decreasing lithium resource and ensure continuous development of energy storage industry, sodium‐based batteries are widely studied to inherit the next generation of energy storage devices. In this work, a novel Na super ionic conductor type KTi₂(PO₄)₃/carbon nanocomposite is designed and fabricated as sodium storage electrode materials, which exhibits considerable reversible capacity (104 mAh g^?1 under the rate of 1 C with flat voltage plateaus at ≈2.1 V), high‐rate cycling stability (74.2% capacity retention after 5000 cycles at 20 C), and ultrahigh rate capability (76 mAh g^?1 at 100 C) in sodium ion batteries. Besides, the maximum ability for sodium storage is deeply excavated by further investigations about different voltage windows in half and full sodium ion cells. Meanwhile, as cathode material in sodium‐magnesium hybrid batteries, the KTi₂(PO₄)₃/carbon nanocomposite also displays good electrochemical performances (63 mAh g^?1 at the 230th cycle under the voltage window of 1.0–1.9 V). The results demonstrate that the KTi₂(PO₄)₃/carbon nanocomposite is a promising electrode material for sodium ion storage, and lay theoretical foundations for the development of new type of batteries.

High ionic conductivity of up to 6.4 × 10^?3 S cm^?1 near room temperature (40 °C) in lithium amide‐borohydrides is reported, comparable to values of liquid organic electrolytes commonly employed in lithium‐ion batteries. Density functional theory is applied coupled with X‐ray diffraction, calorimetry, and nuclear magnetic resonance experiments to shed light on the conduction mechanism. A Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ half‐cell battery incorporating the lithium amide‐borohydride electrolyte exhibits good rate performance up to 3.5 mA cm^?2 (5 C) and stable cycling over 400 cycles at 1 C at 40 °C, indicating high bulk and interfacial stability. The results demonstrate the potential of lithium amide‐borohydrides as solid‐state electrolytes for high‐power lithium‐ion batteries.     

Mesoporous TiO2‐Sn/C Core‐Shell Nanowire Arrays as High‐Performance 3D Anodes for Li‐Ion Batteries

Three‐dimensional mesoporous TiO₂‐Sn/C core‐shell nanowire arrays are prepared on Ti foil as anodes for lithium‐ion batteries. Sn formed by a reduction of SnO₂ is encapsulated into TiO₂ nanowires and the carbon layer is coated onto it. For additive‐free, self‐supported anodes in Li‐ion batteries, this unique core‐shell composite structure can effectively buffer the volume change, suppress cracking, and improve the conductivity of the electrode during the discharge‐charge process, thus resulting in superior rate capability and excellent long‐term cycling stability. Specifically, the TiO₂‐Sn/C nanowire arrays display rechargeable discharge capacities of 769, 663, 365, 193, and 90 mA h g^?1 at 0.1C, 0.5C, 2C 10C, and 30C, respectively (1C = 335 mA g^?1). Furthermore, the TiO₂‐Sn/C nanowire arrays exhibit a capacity retention rate of 84.8% with a discharge capacity of over 160 mA h g^?1, even after 100 cycles at a high current rate of 10C.     

Enhanced Cyclability of Lithium–Oxygen Batteries with Electrodes Protected by Surface Films Induced via In Situ Electrochemical Process

Although the rechargeable lithium–oxygen (Li–O₂) batteries have extremely high theoretical specific energy, the practical application of these batteries is still limited by the instability of their carbon‐based air‐electrode, Li metal anode, and electrodes, toward reduced oxygen species. Here a simple one‐step in situ electrochemical precharging strategy is demonstrated to generate thin protective films on both carbon nanotubes (CNTs), air‐electrodes and Li metal anodes simultaneously under an inert atmosphere. Li–O₂ cells after such pretreatment demonstrate significantly extended cycle life of 110 and 180 cycles under the capacity‐limited protocol of 1000 mA h g^?1 and 500 mA h g^?1, respectively, which is far more than those without pretreatment. The thin‐films formed from decomposition of electrolyte during in situ electrochemical precharging processes in an inert environment, can protect both CNTs air‐electrode and Li metal anode prior to conventional Li–O₂ discharge/charge cycling, where reactive reduced oxygen species are formed. This work provides a new approach for protection of carbon‐based air‐electrodes and Li metal anodes in practical Li–O₂ batteries, and may also be applied to other battery systems.     

Toward a High‐Performance All‐Plastic Full Battery with a'Single Organic Polymer as Both Cathode and Anode

The design and fabrication of high‐performance all‐plastic batteries is essentially important to achieve future flexible electronics. A major challenge in this field is the lack of stable and reliable soft organic electrodes with satisfactory performance. Here, a novel all‐plastic‐electrode based Li‐ion battery with a single flexible bi‐functional ladderized heterocyclic poly(quinone), (C₆O₂S₂)_n, as both cathode and anode is demonstrated. Benefiting from its unique ladder‐like quinone and dithioether structure, the as‐prepared polymer cathode shows a high energy density of 624 Wh kg^?1 (vs lithium anode) and a stable battery life of 1000 cycles. Moreover, the as‐fabricated symmetric full‐battery delivers a large capacity of 249 mAh g^?1 (at 20 mA g^?1), a good capacity retention of 119 mAh g^?1 after 250 cycles (at 1.0 A g^?1) and a noteworthy energy density up to 276 Wh kg^?1. The superior performance of poly(2,3‐dithiino‐1,4‐benzoquinone)‐based electrode rivals most of the state‐of‐the‐art demonstrations on organic‐based metal‐ion shuttling batteries. The study provides an effective strategy to develop stable bi‐functional electrode materials toward the next‐generation of high performance all‐plastic batteries.     

3D Porous Cu–Zn Alloys as Alternative Anode Materials for Li‐Ion Batteries with Superior Low T Performance

Zinc is recently gaining interest in the battery community as potential alternative anode material, because of its large natural abundance and potentially larger volumetric density than graphite. Nevertheless, pure Zn anodes have shown so far very poor cycling performance. Here, the electrochemical performance of Zn‐rich porous Cu–Zn alloys electrodeposited by an environmentally friendly (aqueous) dynamic hydrogen bubble template method is reported. The lithiation/delithiation mechanism is studied in detail by both in situ and ex situ X‐ray diffraction, indicating the reversible displacement of Zn from the Cu–Zn alloy upon reaction with Li. The influence of the alloy composition on the performance of carbon‐ and binder‐free electrodes is also investigated. The optimal Cu:Zn atomic ratio is found to be 18:82, which provides impressive rate capability up to 10 A g^?1 (≈30C), and promising capacity retention upon more than 500 cycles. The high electronic conductivity provided by Cu, and the porous electrode morphology also enable superior lithium storage capability at low temperature. Cu₁₈Zn₈₂ can indeed steadily deliver ≈200 mAh g^?1 at ?20 °C, whereas an analogous commercial graphite electrode rapidly fades to only 12 mAh g^?1.     

Low‐Temperature Reduction Strategy Synthesized Si/Ti3C2 MXene Composite Anodes for High‐Performance Li‐Ion Batteries

Silicon is attracting enormous attention due to its theoretical capacity of 4200 mAh g^?1 as an anode for Li‐ion batteries (LIBs). It is of fundamental importance and challenge to develop low‐temperature reaction route to controllably synthesize Si/Ti₃C₂ MXene LIBs anodes. Herein, a novel and efficient strategy integrating in situ orthosilicate hydrolysis and a low‐temperature reduction process to synthesize Si/Ti₃C₂ MXene composites is reported. The hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate leads to homogenous nucleation and growth of SiO₂ nanoparticles on the surface of Ti₃C₂ MXene. Subsequently, SiO₂ nanoparticles are reduced to Si via a low‐temperature (200 °C) reduction route. Importantly, Ti₃C₂ MXene not only provides fast transfer channels for Li⁺ and electrons, but also relieves volume expansion of Si during cycling. Moreover, the characteristics of excellent pseudocapacitive performance and high conductivity of Ti₃C₂ MXene can synergistically contribute to the enhancement of energy storage performance. As expected, Ti₃C₂/Si anode exhibits an outstanding specific capacity of 1849 mAh g^?1 at 100 mA g^?1, even retaining 956 mAh g^?1 at 1 A g^?1. The low‐temperature synthetic route to Si/Ti₃C₂ MXene electrodes and involved battery‐capacitive dual‐model energy storage mechanism has potential in the design of novel high‐performance electrodes for energy storage devices.     

New Binder‐Free Metal Phosphide–Carbon Felt Composite Anodes for Sodium‐Ion Battery

Metal phosphides are promising anode candidates for sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) due to their high specific capacity and low operating potential but suffer from poor cycling stability caused by huge volume expansion and poor solid‐state ion transfer rate. Herein, a new strategy to grow a new class of mesoporous metal phosphide nanoarrays on carbon felt (CF) as binder‐free anodes for SIBs is reported. The resultant integrated electrodes demonstrate excellent cycling life up to 1000 times (>90% retention rate) and high rate capability of 535 mAh g^?1 at a current density of 4 A g^?1. Detailed characterization reveals that the synergistic effect of unique mesoporous structure for accommodating huge volume expansion during sodiation/desodiation process, ultrasmall primary particle size (≈10 nm) for providing larger electrode/electrolyte contact area and shorter ion diffusion distance, and 3D conductive networks for facilitating the electrochemical reaction, leads to the extraordinary battery performance. Remarkably, a full SIB using the new CoP₄/CF anode and a Na₃V₂(PO₄)₂F₃ cathode delivers an average operating voltage of ≈3.0 V, a reversible capacity of 553 mAh g^?1, and very high energy density of ≈280 Wh kg^?1 for SIBs. A flexible SIB with outstanding mechanical strength based on this binder‐free new anode is also demonstrated.     

Hydrogenated Core–Shell MAX@K2Ti8O17 Pseudocapacitance with Ultrafast Sodium Storage and Long‐Term Cycling

Sodium‐ion batteries are considered alternatives to lithium‐ion batteries for energy storage devices due to their competitive cost and source abundance. However, the development of electrode materials with long‐term stability and high capacity remains a great challenge. Here, this paper describes for the first time the synthesis of a new class of core–shell MAX@K₂Ti₈O₁₇ by alkaline hydrothermal reaction and hydrogenation of MAX, which grants high sodium ion‐intercalation pseudocapacitance. This composite electrode displays extraordinary reversible capacities of 190 mA h g^?1 at 200 mA g^?1 (0.9 C, theoretical value of ≈219 mA h g^?1) and 150 mA h g^?1 at 1000 mA g^?1 (4.6 C). More importantly, a reversible capacity of 75 mA h g^?1 at 10 000 mA g^?1 (46 C) is retained without any apparent capacity decay even after more than 10 000 cycles. Experimental tests and first‐principle calculations confirm that the increase in Ti³⁺ on the surface layers of MAX@K₂Ti₈O₁₇ by hydrogenation increases its conductivity in addition to enhancing the sodium‐ion intercalation pseudocapacitive process. Furthermore, the distorted dodecahedrons between Ti and O layers not only provide abundant sites for sodium‐ion accommodation but also act as wide tunnels for sodium‐ion transport.     

Carbon‐Sheathed MoS2 Nanothorns Epitaxially Grown on CNTs: Electrochemical Application for Highly Stable and Ultrafast Lithium Storage

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂), which possesses a layered structure and exhibits a high theoretical capacity, is currently under intensive research as an anode candidate for next generation of Li‐ion batteries. However, unmodified MoS₂ suffers from a poor cycling stability and an inferior rate capability upon charge/discharge processes. Herein, a unique nanocomposite comprising MoS₂ nanothorns epitaxially grown on the backbone of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and coated by a layer of amorphous carbon is synthesized via a simple method. The epitaxial growth of MoS₂ on CNTs results in a strong chemical coupling between active nanothorns and carbon substrate via C? S bond, providing a high stability as well as a high‐efficiency electron‐conduction/ion‐transportation system on cycling. The outer carbon layer can well‐accommodate the structural strain in the electrode upon lithium‐ion insertion/extraction. When employed as an anode for lithium storage, the prepared material exhibits remarkable electrochemical properties with a high specific capacity of 982 mA h g^?1 at 0.1 A g^?1, as well as excellent long‐cycling stability (905 mA h g^?1 at 1 A g^?1 after 500 cycles) and superior rate capability, confirming its potential application in high‐performance Li‐ion batteries.

Potassium‐ion batteries (KIBs) have attracted increasing attention for grid‐scale energy storage due to the abundance of potassium resources, low cost, and competitive energy density. The key challenge for KIBs is to develop high‐performance electrode materials. However, the exploration of high‐capacity and ultrastable electrodes for KIBs remains challenging because of the sluggish diffusion kinetics of K⁺ ions during the charging/discharging processes. This study reports for the first time a facile ion‐intercalation‐mediated exfoliation method with Mg²⁺ cations and NO₃^– anions as ion assistants for the fabrication of expanded few‐layered ternary Ta₂NiSe₅ (EF‐TNS) flakes with interlayer spacing up to 1.1 nm and abundant Se sites (NiSe₄ tetrahedra/TaSe₆ octahedra clusters) for superior potassium‐ion storage. The EF‐TNS deliver a high capacity of 315 mAh g^–1, excellent rate capability (121 mAh g^–1 at a current density of 1000 mA g^–1), and ultrastable cycling performance (81.4% capacity retention after 1100 cycles). Detailed theoretical analysis via first‐principles calculations and experimental results elucidate that K⁺ ions intercalate through the expanded interlayers effectively and prefer to transport along zigzag pathways in layered Ta₂NiSe₅. This work provides a new avenue for designing novel ternary intercalation/pseudocapacitance‐type KIBs with high capacity, excellent rate capability, and superior long‐term cycling performance.
