APCNDI is composed of n-type 1,4,5,8-naphthalene tetracarboxylic diimide that stores Li cations and p-type carbazole groups which react with anions and serve as polymerization sites. Electropolymerization completely eliminated the dissolution problem of APCNDI, and the electropolymerized cathode demonstrated a bipolar reaction with excellent electrochemical performance, stable cycling performance with a capacity retention of 92 mA h g;after1000 cycles, and a superior rate performance of 72 mA h g;at 10 A g;. The bipolar feature and reactions of APCNDI were systematically investigated and verified by multiple characterization techniques.
