Monovalent Li-substitution has been proven to be an effective strategy resolve the pivotal problems confronted with P2-type layered Mn oxides, such as cooperative Jahn–Teller distortions of Mn3+ ions and drastic P2-(OP4)-O2 phase transformations occurring during desodiation. However, cycling stability most Li+-substituted P2-NaxLiyMn1–yO2 remains far from satisfactory. We herein develop a facile Ti-substitution method improve cyclability by taking Na0.72Li0.24Mn0.76O2 (NLMO) example. As...
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) show great application prospects in large-scale energy storage. P2-type manganese-based layered oxides have received special attention by virtue of their high theoretical capacity, low cost, and environmental friendliness. However, water sensitivity limited cycling stability hinder application, especially since the underlying mechanisms for above two issues are still unclear. In this work, copper substitution is used to suppress Jahn–Teller effect Mn3+ affect...

Na-ion cathode materials cycling at high voltages with long life and capacity are of imminent need for developing future high-energy batteries. However, the irreversible anionic redox activity layered results in structural distortion poor retention upon cycling.

On basis comprehensive comparison Cu-free material, both over-oxidation O2- trapped molecular O2...
Na-ion layered oxides with Na-O-A' local configurations (A' represents nonredox active cations such as Li+, Na+, Mg2+, Zn2+) are attractive cathode choices for energy-dense batteries owing to the accumulation of cationic and anionic redox activities. However, migration A' would degrade stability configuration, bringing about drastic capacity decay structural distortions upon cycling. Herein, we uncover close interplay between irreversible Zn inactivation lattice oxygen (LOR) based on Na-O-Zn...

Our previous work suggested that more carboxylate groups might lead to higher energy density for metal–organic frameworks. In this study, we synthesized a layered framework (MOF) Ni-BHC by use of 1,2,3,4,5,6-benzenehexacarboxylic acid. After evacuation thermal treatment, MOF was employed as an anode lithium storage. For its rich lithiation sites well fast-kinetics structure, it delivers superior reversible capacity 1261.3 mA h g–1 at 100 g–1, far exceeding the performance previously reported...
Herein, the structure–electrochemistry relationship of O2-Li5/6(Li0.2Ni0.2Mn0.6)O2 is deliberately studied by local-structure probes including site-sensitive 7Li pj-MATPASS NMR, quantitative 6Li magic-angle spinning and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The extraction reinsertion LiTM (Li in transition metal layer) during first cycle are only partially reversible, bringing about formation tetrahedral LiLi Li that can be reversibly (de)intercalated after activation cycle. high-voltage...
Triggering reversible lattice oxygen redox (LOR) in oxide cathodes is a paradigmatic approach to overcome the capacity ceiling determined by orthodox transition-metal (TM) redox. However, LOR reactions P2-structured Na-layered oxides are commonly accompanied irreversible nonlattice (non-LOR) and large local structural rearrangements, bringing about capacity/voltage fading constantly evolving charge/discharge voltage curves. Herein, novel Na0.615 Mg0.154 Ti0.154 Mn0.615 ◻0.077 O2 (◻ = TM...

Dual-mode electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was employed to analyze redox mechanisms in lithium cobalt oxide LiCoO2 (LCO) cathode material during delithiation and lithiation. It found that the O3-II could not fully convert back pristine O3–I phase while oxygen vacancies quickly generate accumulate cycling. Our study paves way for better understanding doping effects of different elements on future.
