Abstract Rechargeable potassium-ion batteries have been gaining traction as not only promising low-cost alternatives to lithium-ion technology, but also high-voltage energy storage systems. However, their development and sustainability are plagued by the lack of suitable electrode materials capable allowing reversible insertion large potassium ions. Here, exploration database for potassium-based has led us discover ion conducting layered honeycomb frameworks. They show capability ions at...
The world is at the cusp of a new era where pivotal importance being attached to development sustainable and high-performance energy storage systems. Potassium-ion batteries are deemed not only as cheap battery candidates, but also penultimate high-voltage systems within monovalent-cation chemistries. However, their performance sustainability undermined by lack suitable electrolytes for operation particularly due limited availability cathode materials. Here, potential ionic liquids based on...
Pentakis-fused TTF derivatives extended with two cyclohexene-1,4-diylidenes (2a and 2b) have been successfully synthesized. Cyclic voltammetry of the tetrakis(2-ethylhexylthio) derivative (2b) has revealed that it exhibits five stages redox process to form 2b10+.

Abstract Many types of batteries have been proposed as next‐generation energy‐storage systems. One candidate is a rocking‐chair‐type “molecular ion battery” in which molecular ion, instead Li + , works charge carrier. Previously, we reported viologen‐type derivative negative electrode material that releases and receives PF 6 − anions during the charge–discharge process; however, its redox potential was not satisfactorily low. Further, two plateaus this (difference=0.5 V) should be reduced....
