Abstract Heteroatom doping has been proved to effectively enhance the sloping capacity, nevertheless, high capacity almost encounters a conflict with disappointing initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE). Herein, we propose heteroatom configuration screening strategy by introducing secondary carbonization process for phosphate‐treated carbons remove irreversible configurations but reversible ones and free radicals remaining, achieving simultaneity between ICE (≈250 mAh g −1 80 %). The Na storage...
The anionic redox reaction (ARR) is a promising charge contributor to improve the reversible capacity of layered-oxide cathodes for Na-ion batteries; however, some practical bottlenecks still need be eliminated, including low retention, large voltage hysteresis, and rate capability. Herein, we proposed high-Na content honeycomb-ordered cathode, P2-Na5/6[Li1/6Cu1/6Mn2/3]O2 (P2-NLCMO), with combined cationic/anionic redox. Neutron powder diffraction X-ray P2-NLCMO suggested P2-type stacking...
Abstract Na‐ion batteries (NIBs) are promising for grid‐scale energy storage applications. However, the lack of Co, Ni‐free cathode materials has made them less cost‐effective. In this work, Mg 2+ is successfully utilized to activate oxygen redox reaction in earth‐abundant Fe/Mn‐based layered cathodes achieve reversible hybrid anionic and cationic capacities. A high first charge capacity ≈210 mAh g −1 with balanced charge–discharge efficiency achieved without O‐loss, showing a cost $2.02 kWh...
Air sensitivity remains a substantial barrier to the commercialization of sodium (Na)-layered oxides (NLOs). This problem has puzzled community for decades because complexity interactions between air components and their impact on both bulk surfaces NLOs. We show here that water vapor plays pivotal role in initiating destructive acid oxidative degradations NLOs only when coupled with carbon dioxide or oxygen, respectively. Quantification analysis revealed reducing defined cation competition...
Abstract The irreversible consumption of sodium at the anode side during first cycle prominently reduces energy density Na‐ion batteries. Different sacrificial cathode additives have been recently reported to address this problem; however, critical issues such as by‐products (e.g., CO 2 ) release cycling and incompatibility with current battery fabrication procedures potentially deteriorate full‐cell performance prevent practical application. Herein, an additive‐free self‐presodiation...

An effective way increase charging voltage O3‐type layered cathodes preferably 4.2 V versus Na/Na + (V Na ). Nevertheless, extremely challenging achieve stable cycling at such a high cut‐off voltage. Here novel electrolyte strategy design an intermolecular‐reinforced (IRE) presented, utilizing meticulously protected ether molecules, which facilitates...

Abstract Sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) are receiving considerable attention as economic candidates for large‐scale energy storage applications. Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) O F (NVPF) is intensively regarded one of the most promising cathode materials SIBs, due to its high density, fast ionic conduction, and robust + ‐super‐ionic conductor (NASICON) framework. However, poor rate capability ascribed intrinsically low electronic conductivity severely hinders their practical Here, high‐rate highly reversible...
Abstract In Na-ion batteries, O3-type layered oxide cathode materials encounter challenges such as particle cracking, oxygen loss, electrolyte side reactions, and multi-phase transitions during the charge/discharge process. This study focuses on surface coating with NiTiO 3 achieved via secondary heat treatment using a precursor material. Through in-situ x-ray diffraction (XRD) differential electrochemical mass spectrometry (DEMS), along crystal structure characterizations of post-cycling...
