Nevertheless, the development of NIMSCs are hugely impeded by the low capacity and sluggish Na ion kinetics in the negative electrode.Herein, we demonstrate a novel carbon-coated Nb_(2)O_5 microflower with a hierarchical structure composed of vertically intercrossed and porous nanosheets, boosting Na ion storage performance. The unique structural merits, including uniform carbon coating, ultrathin nanosheets and abun-dant pores, endow the Nb_(2)O_5 microflower with highly reversible Na ion storage capacity of 245 mAh g^(-1) at 0.25 C and excellent rate capability.Benefiting from high capacity and fast charging of Nb_(2)O_5 microflower, the planar NIMSCs consisted of Nb_(2)O_5 negative electrode and activated car-bon positive electrode deliver high areal energy density of 60.7 μWh cm^(-2),considerable voltage window of 3.5 V and extraordinary cyclability. Therefore, this work exploits a structural design strategy towards electrode materials for application in NIMSCs, holding great promise for flexible microelectronics.展开更多

Here, hard carbons(HC) prepared by cellulose pyrolysis were investigated with varying pyrolysis temperature from 700 °C to 1600 °C. Characterisation methods such as Small Angle X-ray Scattering(SAXS) measurements and N_2 adsorption were performed to analyse porosity differences between the samples. The graphene sheet arrangements were observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM): an ordering of the graphene sheets is observed at temperatures above 1150 °C and small crystalline domains appear over 1400 °C. As the graphene sheets start to align, the BET surface area decreases and the micropore size increases. To correlate hard carbon structures and electrochemical performances, different tests in Na//HC cells with 1 M NaPF_6 ethylene carbonate/dimethyl carbonate(EC/DMC) were performed. Samples pyrolysed from 1300 °C to 1600 °C showed a 300 m Ah/g reversible capacity at C/10 rate(where C = 372 mA/g) with an excellent stability in cycling and a very good initial Coulombic efficiency of up to 84%. Furthermore, hard carbons showed an excellent rate capability where sodium extraction rate varies from C/10 to 5C. At 5C more than 80% of reversible capacity remains stable for hard carbons synthesized from 1000 °C to 1600 °C.展开更多

However, its sodium storage capability is severely limited by the sluggish sodiation/desodiation reaction kinetics. Herein, NiCo_2O_4 double-shelled hollow spheres were synthesized via a microwave-assisted, fast solvothermal synthetic procedure in a mixture of isopropanol and glycerol, followed by annealing. Isopropanol played a vital role in the precipitation of nickel and cobalt,and the shrinkage of the glycerol quasi-emulsion under heat treatment was responsible for the formation of the double-shelled nanostructure. The as-synthesized productwas tested as an anode material in a sodium ion battery,was found to exhibit a high reversible specific capacity of 511 m Ahg^(-1) at 100 m Ag^(-1), and deliver high capacity retention after 100 cycles.展开更多

Nitrogen-doped lignin-based carbon microspheres represent well-developed spherical morphology with many active sites, ultramicroporous(< 0.7 nm) structure, and large interlayer spacing. Consistent with the obtained physical structures and properties, the nitrogen-doped carbon microspheres exhibit fast sodium ion adsorption/intercalation kinetic process and excellent electrochemical performance. For example, a reversible specific capacity of 374 m Ah g^(-1) at 25 m A g^(-1) with high initial coulombic efficiency of 85% and high capacitance retention of 90% after 300 cycles at 100 m A g^(-1) and stable charge/discharge behavior at different current density is obtained. The additional defects and abundant ultramicroporous structure can enhance sloping capacity, and large interlayer spacing is considered to be the reason for improving plateau capacity.展开更多

T...Hard carbons are widely investigated as potential anodes for lithium and sodium ion batteries owing to their internally well-tailored textures(closed pores and defects) and large microcrystalline interlayer spacing. The renewable biomass is a green and economically attractive carbon source to produce hard carbons. However, the chemical and structural complexity of biomass has plagued the understanding of evolution mechanism from organic precursors to hard carbons and the structure-property relationship.This makes it difficult to finely tune the microstructure of biomass-derived hard carbons, thus greatly restricting their high-performance applications. Most recently, the optimal utilization and controllable conversion of biomass-derived biopolymers(such as starch, cellulose and lignin) at the molecular level have become a burgeoning area of research to develop hard carbons for advanced batteries.Considering the principal source of carbonaceous materials is from biomass pyrolysis, we firstly overview the chemical structures and pyrolysis behaviors of three main biopolymers. Then, the controllable preparation of hard carbons using various physicochemical properties of biopolymers at the molecular level is systematically discussed. Furthermore, we highlight present challenges and further opportunities in this field. The Review will guide future research works on the design of sustainable hard carbons and the optimization of battery performance.展开更多

文摘Earth abundant O3-type NaFe_(0.5)Mn_(0.5)O_(2)layered oxide is regarded as one of the most promising cathodes for sodium ion batteries due to its low cost and high energy density.However,its poor structural stability and cycle life strongly impede the practical application.Herein,the dynamic phase evolution as well as charge compensation mechanism of O3-type NaFe_(0.5)Mn_(0.5)O_(2)cathode during sodiation/desodiation are revealed by a systemic study with operando X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy,high resolution neutron powder diffraction and neutron pair distribution functions.The layered structure experiences a phase transition of O3→P3→OP2→ramsdellite during the desodiation,and a new O3’phase is observed at the end of the discharge state(1.5 V).The density functional theory(DFT)calculations and nPDF results suggest that depletion of Na^(+)ions induces the movement of Fe into Na layer resulting the formation of an inert ramsdellite phase thus causing the loss of capacity and structural integrity.Meanwhile,the operando XAS clarified the voltage regions for active Mn^(3+)/Mn^(4+)and Fe^(3+)/Fe^(4+)redox couples.This work points out the universal underneath problem for Fe-based layered oxide cathodes when cycled at high voltage and highlights the importance to suppress Fe migration regarding the design of high energy O3-type cathodes for sodium ion batteries.

文摘Sodium iron hexacyanoferrate(FeHCF)is one of the most promising cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)due to its low cost theoretical capacity.However,the low electrochemical activity of Fe^(LS)(C)in FeHCF drags down its practical capacity and potential plateau.Herein,FeHCF with high Fe^(LS)(C)electrochemical activity(C-FeHCF)is synthesized via a facile citric acid-assisted solvothermal method.As the cathode of SIBs,C-FeHCF shows superior cycling stability(ca.87.3%capacity retention for 1000 cycles at 10 C)and outstanding rate performance(ca.68.5%capacity retention at 50 C).Importantly,the contribution of Fe^(LS)(C)to the whole capacity was quantitatively analyzed via combining dQ/dV and discharge curve for the first time,and the index reaches 44.53%for C-FeHCF,close to the theoretical value.In-situ X-ray diffraction proves the structure stability of C-FeHCF during charge-discharge process,ensuring its superior cycling performance.Furthermore,the application feasibility of the C-FeHCF cathode in quasi-solid SIBs is also evaluated.The quasi-solid SIBs with the C-FeHCF cathode exhibit excellent electrochemical performance,delivering an initial discharge capacity of 106.5 mAh g^(−1) at 5 C and high capacity retention of 89.8%over 1200 cycles.This work opens new insights into the design and development of advanced cathode materials for SIBs and the beyond.

文摘Cellulose, the most abundant organic polymer on Earth, is a sustainable source of carbon to use as a negative electrode for sodium ion batteries. Here, hard carbons(HC) prepared by cellulose pyrolysis were investigated with varying pyrolysis temperature from 700 °C to 1600 °C. Characterisation methods such as Small Angle X-ray Scattering(SAXS) measurements and N_2 adsorption were performed to analyse porosity differences between the samples. The graphene sheet arrangements were observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM): an ordering of the graphene sheets is observed at temperatures above 1150 °C and small crystalline domains appear over 1400 °C. As the graphene sheets start to align, the BET surface area decreases and the micropore size increases. To correlate hard carbon structures and electrochemical performances, different tests in Na//HC cells with 1 M NaPF_6 ethylene carbonate/dimethyl carbonate(EC/DMC) were performed. Samples pyrolysed from 1300 °C to 1600 °C showed a 300 m Ah/g reversible capacity at C/10 rate(where C = 372 mA/g) with an excellent stability in cycling and a very good initial Coulombic efficiency of up to 84%. Furthermore, hard carbons showed an excellent rate capability where sodium extraction rate varies from C/10 to 5C. At 5C more than 80% of reversible capacity remains stable for hard carbons synthesized from 1000 °C to 1600 °C.

文摘The ternary transitional metal oxide NiCo_2O_4 is a promising anode material for sodium ion batteries due to its high theoretical capacity and superior electrical conductivity. However, its sodium storage capability is severely limited by the sluggish sodiation/desodiation reaction kinetics. Herein, NiCo_2O_4 double-shelled hollow spheres were synthesized via a microwave-assisted, fast solvothermal synthetic procedure in a mixture of isopropanol and glycerol, followed by annealing. Isopropanol played a vital role in the precipitation of nickel and cobalt,and the shrinkage of the glycerol quasi-emulsion under heat treatment was responsible for the formation of the double-shelled nanostructure. The as-synthesized productwas tested as an anode material in a sodium ion battery,was found to exhibit a high reversible specific capacity of 511 m Ahg^(-1) at 100 m Ag^(-1), and deliver high capacity retention after 100 cycles.

文摘Although sodium ion capacitors(SICs)are considered as one of the most promising electrochemical energy storage devices(organic electrolyte batteries,aqueous batteries and supercapacitor,etc.)due to the combined merits of battery and capacitor,the slow reaction kinetics and low specific capacity of anode materials are the main challenges.Point defects including vacancies and heteroatoms doping have been widely used to improve the kinetics behavior and capacity of anode materials.However,the interaction between vacancies and heteroatoms doping have been seldomly investigated.In this study,a hybrid point defects(HPD)engineering has been proposed to synthesize TiO_(2) with both oxygen vacancies(OVs)and P-dopants(TiO_(2)/C-HPD).In comparison with sole OVs or P-doping treatments,the synergistic effects of HPD on its electrical conductivity and sodium storage performance have been clarified through the density func-tional theory calculation and sodium storage characterization.As expected,the kinetics and electronic conductivity of TiO_(2)/C-HPD3 are significantly improved,resulting in excellent rate performance and outstanding cycle stability.Moreover,the SICs assembled from TiO_(2)/C-HPD3 anode and nitrogen-doped porous carbon cathode show outstanding power/energy density,ultra-long life with good capacity retention.This work provides a novel point defect engineering perspective for the development of high-performance SICs electrode materials.

文摘Developing cost-effective advanced carbon anode is critical for innovation of sodium ion batteries. Herein, we develop a powerful combined method for rational synthesis of free-standing binder-free carbon nanospheres arrays via chemical bath plus hydrothermal process. Impressively,carbon spheres with diameters of 150-250 nm are randomly interconnected with each other forming highly porous arrays. Positive advantages including large porosity, high surface and strong mechanical stability are combined in the carbon nanospheres arrays. The obtained carbon nanospheres arrays are tested as anode material for sodium ion batteries(SIBs) and deliver a high reversible capacity of 102 mAh g^(-1) and keep a capacity retention of 95% after 100 cycles at a current density of 0.25 A g^(-1) and good rate performance(65 mAh g^(-1) at a high current density of 2 A g^(-1)). The good electrochemical performance is attributed to the stable porous nanosphere structure with fast ion/electron transfer characteristics.

文摘Anatase TiO_2 has been investigated as one of the most promising anode materials for sodium ion batteries(SIBs)with low cost and high theoretical capacity.Herein,a composite material of TiO_2 /N,S-RGO@C with carbon coated ultrasmall anatase TiO_2 anchored on nitrogen and sulfur co-doped RGO matrix was successfully prepared by a rational designed process.The composite structure exhibited ultrasmall crystal size,rich porous structure,homogeneous heteroatoms doping and thin carbon coating,which synergistically resulted in elevated electron and ion transfer.The anode exhibited high rate capacities with good reversibility under high rate cycling.The carbon coating was investigated to be effective to prevent active material falling and lead to long term cycling performance with a high capacity retention of 181 m Ah g^(à1)after 2000cycles at 2 C.Kinetic studies were carried out and the results revealed that the superior performance of the composite material were derived from the decreased charge transfer resistance and elevated ion diffusion.Results suggested that the TiO_2 /N,S-RGO@C composite is a promising anode material for sodium ion batteries.

文摘Transition metal selenides have been widely studied as anode materials of sodium ion batteries(SIBs),however,the investigation of solid-electrolyte-interface(SEI)on these materials,which is critical to the electrochemical performance of SIBs,remains at its infancy.Here in this paper,ZnSe@C nanoparticles were prepared from ZIF-8 and the SEI layers on these electrodes with and without reduced graphene oxide(rGO)layers were examined in details by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies at varied charged/discharged states.It is observed that fast and complicated electrolyte decomposition reactions on ZnSe@C leads to quite thick SEI film and intercalation of solvated sodium ions through such thick SEI film results in slow ion diffusion kinetics and unstable electrode structure.However,the presence of rGO could efficiently suppress the decomposition of electrolyte,thus thin and stable SEI film was formed.ZnSe@C electrodes wrapped by rGO demonstrates enhanced interfacial charge transfer kinetics and high electrochemical performance,a capacity retention of 96.4%,after 1000 cycles at 5 A/g.This study might offer a simple avenue for the designing high performance anode materials through manipulation of SEI film.

文摘Nitrogen-doped lignin-based carbon microspheres are synthesized using 3-aminophenol as a nitrogen source by the hydrothermal method.The structural change and the effect on the electrochemical properties are systematically investigated. Nitrogen-doped lignin-based carbon microspheres represent well-developed spherical morphology with many active sites, ultramicroporous(< 0.7 nm) structure, and large interlayer spacing. Consistent with the obtained physical structures and properties, the nitrogen-doped carbon microspheres exhibit fast sodium ion adsorption/intercalation kinetic process and excellent electrochemical performance. For example, a reversible specific capacity of 374 m Ah g^(-1) at 25 m A g^(-1) with high initial coulombic efficiency of 85% and high capacitance retention of 90% after 300 cycles at 100 m A g^(-1) and stable charge/discharge behavior at different current density is obtained. The additional defects and abundant ultramicroporous structure can enhance sloping capacity, and large interlayer spacing is considered to be the reason for improving plateau capacity.

文摘WS_(2)with layered graphite-like structure as anode for sodium ion batteries has high specific capacity.However,the poor cycling performance and rate capability of WS_(2)caused by the low electronic conductivity and structure changes during cycles inhibit its practical application.Herein,metallic phase(1T)W_(x)Mo_(1−x)S2(x=1,0.9,0.8 and 0.6)with high electronic conductivity and expanded interlayer spacing of 0.95 nm was directly prepared via a simple hydrothermal method.Specially,1T W_(0.9)Mo_(0.1)S_(2)as anode for sodium ion batteries displays high capacities of 411 mAh g^(-1)at 0.1 A g^(-1)after 180 cycles and 262 mAh g^(-1)at 1 A g^(-1)after 280 cycles and excellent rate capability(245 mAh g^(-1)at 5 A g^(-1)).The full cell based on Na_(3)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(2)O_(2)F/C cathode and 1T W_(0.9)Mo_(0.1)S_(2)anode also exhibits high capacity and good cycling performance.The irreversible electrochemical reaction of 1T W_(0.9)Mo_(0.1)S_(2)with Na ions during first few cycles results in the main products of W-Mo alloy and S.The strong adsorption of W-Mo alloy with polysulfides can effectively suppress the dissolution and shuttle effect of polysulfides,which ensures the excellent cycling performance of 1T W_(0.9)Mo_(0.1)S_(2).

文摘Hard carbons are widely investigated as potential anodes for lithium and sodium ion batteries owing to their internally well-tailored textures(closed pores and defects) and large microcrystalline interlayer spacing. The renewable biomass is a green and economically attractive carbon source to produce hard carbons. However, the chemical and structural complexity of biomass has plagued the understanding of evolution mechanism from organic precursors to hard carbons and the structure-property relationship.This makes it difficult to finely tune the microstructure of biomass-derived hard carbons, thus greatly restricting their high-performance applications. Most recently, the optimal utilization and controllable conversion of biomass-derived biopolymers(such as starch, cellulose and lignin) at the molecular level have become a burgeoning area of research to develop hard carbons for advanced batteries.Considering the principal source of carbonaceous materials is from biomass pyrolysis, we firstly overview the chemical structures and pyrolysis behaviors of three main biopolymers. Then, the controllable preparation of hard carbons using various physicochemical properties of biopolymers at the molecular level is systematically discussed. Furthermore, we highlight present challenges and further opportunities in this field. The Review will guide future research works on the design of sustainable hard carbons and the optimization of battery performance.

文摘The design of anode materials with a high specific capacity,high cyclic stability,and superior rate performance is required for the practical applications of sodium-ion batteries(SIBs).In this regard,we introduce in this work a facile,low-cost and scalable method for the synthesis of nanocomposites of amorphous molybdenum sulfide(a-MoS_(x))and hierarchical porous carbon and have systematically investigated their performance for sodium ion storage.In the synthesis,ammonium molybdate tetrahydrate and thioacetamide are used as molybdenum and sulfur sources,respectively,with abundant corn starch as the carbon source and KOH as an activation agent.A simple pyrolysis of their mixtures leads to the formation of nanocomposites with a-MoS_(x)embedded within a hierarchical porous carbon(MoS_(x)@HPC),which are featured with a high surface area of up to 518.4 m^(2) g^(-1)and hierarchical pores ranging from micropores to macropores.It has also been shown that the annealing of MoS_(x)@HPC results in the formation of crystalline MoS_(2)nanosheets anchored in the hierarchical porous carbon matrix(MoS_(2)@HPC).The as-prepared nanocomposite MoS_(x)@HPC1 at an optimum carbon content of 32 wt%delivers a high specific sodium storage capacity of 599 mAh g^(-1)at 0.2 A g^(-1)and a high-rate performa nce with a retained capacity of 289 mAh g^(-1)at 5 A g^(-1).A comparison of the electrochemical performances of MoS_(x)@HPC and MoS_(2)@HPC demonstrates the superior specific capacity,rate performance,and charge transfer kinetics of the former,highlighting the unique advantageous role of amorphous MoS_(x)relative to crystalline MoS_(2).
