SrLi 2 Ti 6 O 14 (SLTO) coated with different amount of ZrO 2 was successfully prepared. The as-obtained composites are stacked by a series of particles with a pure phase structure and a good crystallinity. Furthermore, ZrO 2 coating not only enhances the structural stability of the materials but also facilitates the diffusion of lithium through the SEI film. As a result, the redox polarization was reduced, and the reversibility of the electrochemical reaction was enhanced. Particularly, SLTO-ZrO 2 -2 sample delivers a high initial lithiation capacity of 283.6 mA h g −1 , and the values maintain at 251.7, 228.0, 207.4, 175.3, and 147.7 mA h g −1 at the current densities of 0.13, 0.26, 0.54, 1.31, and 2.62 A g −1 , respectively. Our experiment also confirmed that SLTO materials coated with ZrO 2 are suitable for high power density applications, and the lithiation specific energy efficiency of SLTO-ZrO 2 -2 is 200% as high as that of pure SLTO at a power density of 1257 W kg −1 .

The Li-rich cathode material for long cycle performance and long-term storage performance is a challenge for next-generation lithium-ion batteries due to the rapid capacity degradation over cycling and the formation of residual lithium on the surface during long-term storage. Herein, an elevated performance of Li 1.2 Mn 0.54 Ni 0.13 Co 0.13 O 2 materials via CeO 2 inlay is reported, which was prepared from Li 1.2 Mn 0.54 Ni 0.13 Co 0.13 O 2 by sol-gel inlay with CeO 2 . It was proved by scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy that cerium oxide cladding not only covered the surface of the material but also diffused into the interior of the material change crystal structure. Cerium oxide on the cladding not only reduces the material's contact with water and carbon dioxide in the air, but also prevents the material from being corroded by electrolyte during electrochemical test. The position of the transition metal atom is replaced Ce atoms, which increases the unit cell volume and the stability of the Li-rich material during the cycling. The results show that the storage property and the electrochemical cycling property of the material have been improved obviously. The CeO 2 inlaid lithium rich material discharged 204.6 mAh/g for the first time at the current of 1C, and 164.4 mAh/g after 150 charge and discharge cycles with corresponding capacity retention rate of 80.35%, compared with the retention rate of 57.26% for pristine Li-rich material capacity. After being stored in humid air for 40 days, the CeO 2 inlaid lithium-rich material showed better electrochemical performance than the pristine one. It is powerfully demonstrated that the CeO 2 inlay strategy here holds huge promise for surface modification of electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

SiO x is regarded as a promising anode material for the next-generation lithium-ion batteries with high energy density. However, the reduplicative volume changes during cycling cause the pulverizations of Si, leading to decreased utilization of active Si component and poor cycling performance. Herein, a facile and scalable Fe-Cr decorating strategy is reported to boost the lithium storage of SiO x anode. Our comprehensive characterizations indicate that there are strong interactions between Fe-Cr and SiO x during a facile ball milling process. After cycling, Fe-Cr nanoparticles are dispersed in the in-situ formed lithium silicates and Li 2 O matrix, which can maintain superior conductivity of lithium ion and electron for the active components through point-to-point connections. This unique structure boosts the electrochemical de-alloying process of the low-valent Li x Si (0 ≤ x ≤ 2), and increases effective utilization of the active Si component during cycling, resulting in improvement of reversible capacity and cycling stability. This bm SiO x -FeCr electrode can deliver high reversible specific capacity (1370 m Ah g −1 at 200 mA g −1 ), good rate capability (653.8 m Ah g −1 at 2000 mA g −1 ), and superior cycling stability. This work provides a promising route for improving the utilization of active Si component and the structural stability of SiO x -based anodes.

Hollow microstructure always exhibits some special properties in the field of electrochemistry . Here, this study reports the rational design and preparation of TiNb 2 O 7 nanofibers with one dimensional hollow structure via co-electrospinning. The as-electrospun TiNb 2 O 7 hollow nanofibers show high intercalation potential, low charge-charge resistance and fast electrochemical kinetics . The electrochemical results exhibit that the TiNb 2 O 7 hollow nanofibers deliver a reversible capacity of 210.1 mAh g −1 after 150 cycles at a current rate of 0.4 C, and 158.4 mAh g −1 after 900 cycles even at a current rate of 10 C with an outstanding capacity retention of 80.6%. The excellent electrochemical performance of nanofibers can be related to the unique morphology of hollow structure. Furthermore, the lithium ions storage mechanism of TiNb 2 O 7 hollow nanofibers is also systematically analyzed, which is related to one two-phase coexistence and two solid-solution processes during the whole charge-discharge cycle. In addition, it is also demonstrated by in situ and ex situ observations that TiNb 2 O 7 hollow nanofibers have outstanding structural stability and electrochemical reversibility. Therefore, the TiNb 2 O 7 hollow nanofibers can be applied as an alternative promising electrode material for the next rechargeable lithium ions batteries .

Owing to the high theoretic capacity (2596 mAh g −1 ) and suitable lithiation potential (～0.7 V vs. Li + /Li), Black phosphorus (BP) is considered as an ideal anode material for the fast-charging lithium-ion batteries. However, BP still faces the large volume change and low Li + transfer during the charge/discharge. In this work, a facile two-step high-energy ball milling method is developed to synthesis the black phosphorus@TiP 2 –C (CBP@TiP 2 –C) nanocomposite for the high-rate performance anode material, in which the conductive nanocrystalline TiP 2 is in-situ introduced and uniformly distributed into BP-C matrix. We reveal that the uniformly dispersed TiP 2 nanocrystals can enhance the electronic and ionic conductivities of active particles and the electrode reaction kinetics. The lithiation product cubic Li y TiP 4 phase is beneficial to release the stress, reduce the Li + diffusion energy barrier and accelerate the Li + extraction from LiP 3 upon delithiation . Moreover, the contact among different components can be improved by Ti–C and P–C bonds in the CBP@TiP 2 –C, thus ensuring excellent electric contact within the material and enhancing the structural stability of composites. As a result, the CBP@TiP 2 –C anode displays a high reversible capacity of 1007.4 mAh g −1 at 10.0 A g −1 and excellent capacity retention of 925.6 mAh g −1 after 500 cycles at 2 A g −1 .

A super solid electrolyte of Ba-substituted Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 is designed and fabricated to achieve high electrochemical stability. Among the Ba-substituted Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 solid electrolytes, the composition of Li 9.4 Ba 0.3 GeP 2 S 12 exhibits the highest ionic conductivity of 7.04 × 10 − 4 S cm − 1 with an activation energy of 28.27 kJ mol − 1 at 25 °C. The electrochemical window of Li 9.4 Ba 0.3 GeP 2 S 12 is between 0 and 6 V (vs. Li), which is higher than the typical 5 V window of Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 . As compared with Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 , Li 9.4 Ba 0.3 GeP 2 S 12 demonstrates a significantly reduced polarization and a better cycle stability though its ionic conductivity is slightly lower than that of the former. The electrochemical stability of Ba-substituted Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 can be attributed to the structural stability resulting from the stable interaction between Ba 2 + and S 2 − in the structure.

Ni-rich cathodes especially with Ni content over 90 % are promising next-generation cathode materials for advanced high energy lithium − ion batteries. However, in comparison with Ni ≤ 80 % Ni-rich cathodes, these ultrahigh Ni-rich materials face more severe challenges in terms of harmful H2 − H3 phase transformations and structural degradation during cycling. Herein, we present a robust surface structure composted of defect-rich disordered structures and LiF/Li 2 SiO 3 coating for stabilizing the ultrahigh Ni-rich cathode LiNi 0.96 Co 0.03 Mn 0.01 O 2 (NCM96) by modification with (NH 4 ) 2 SiF 6 . The surface disordered structures including Li/TM mixing, spinel, and rock salt structure play a crucial role in inhibiting the irreversible H2-H3 phase transition and reducing lattice volume changes by lattice coherence effect. Moreover, the disordered surface in collaboration with the co-coating restrains the rapid growth of surface rock salt phase into the bulk, enhancing structural stability. The modified sample NSF-0.5 delivers a capacity of 238 mAh/g at 0.1C and maintains a capacity retention of 88.5 % at 0.5C after 100 cycles in half cell as well as 82.3 % at 1C after 300 cycles in full cell, significantly superior to the NCM96. The findings provide a simple and cost-effective surface modification strategy to enhance the structural stability and electrochemical performance of ultrahigh nickel cathodes for high-energy density LIBs.

P2-Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.67 O 2 is considered as a promising cathode material for sodium-ion battery (SIBs) because of its high capacity and discharge potential. However, its practical use is limited by Na + /vacancy ordering and P2-O2 phase transition. Herein, a Ti 4+ /F − co-doping strategy is developed to address these issues. The optimal P2-Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.37 Ti 0.3 O 1.9 F 0.1 exhibits much enhanced sodium storage performance in the high voltage range of 2.0–4.4 V, including a cycling stability of 77.2% over 300 cycles at a rate of 2 C and a high-rate capability of 87.7 mAh g −1 at 6 C. Moreover, the P2-Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.37 Ti 0.3 O 1.9 F 0.1 delivers reversible capacities of 82.7 and 128.1 mAh g −1 at −10 and 50 °C at a rate of 2 C, respectively. The capacity retentions over 200 cycles at −10 °C is 94.2%, implying more opportunity for practical application. In-situ X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that both P2-O2 phase transitions and Na + /vacancy ordering is suppressed by Ti 4+ /F − co-doping, which resulting in fast Na + diffusion and stable phase structure. The hard carbon//P2-Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.37 Ti 0.3 O 1.9 F 0.1 full cell exhibits a high energy density of 310.2 Wh kg −1 and remarkable cyclability with 82.1% retention after 300 cycles at 1 C in the voltage range of 1.5–4.2 V. These results demonstrate that the co-doping Ti 4+ /F − is a promising strategy to improve the electrochemical properties of P2-Na 0.67 Ni 0.33 Mn 0.67 O 2 , providing a facile tactic to develop high performance cathode materials for SIBs.

Hybrid direct carbon fuel cells (HDCFCs) present its inherent and unparalleled advantages in converting chemical energy from organic waste, biomass, and coal directly into clean energy with high efficiency. However, the progress of HDCFC technology continues to be hampered by the sluggish anode reaction kinetics. Herein, an effective design strategy for HDCFC anode is proposed, a Cu-modified Sr 2 Fe 1.3 Cu 0.2 Mo 0.5 O 6-δ (SFCM) perovskite oxide is developed to meet the requirements of intermediate-temperature HDCFC anode. The Cu-doping SFCM anode demonstrates excellent redox structural stability and catalytic activity. In addition, the electrolyte-supported single cell with Cu-doping SFCM anode has improved the peak power density from 285.5 mW cm −2 to 489.3 mW cm −2 at 800 °C with activated carbon as the fuel. The significantly enhanced anode catalytic activity is primarily due to the improved interfacial activity and chemical adsorption of CO. Therefore, the present work shows an effective strategy for designing and developing novel high-performance HDCFCs anode materials .

The development of metal ion-intercalated active materials for excellent electrochemical performance in rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) is challenging. The structure instability and intrinsic electrostatic repulsion of the lattice framework cause structural breakdown and low-rate performance. In response to these problems, yttrium vanadium oxide–poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT@YVO) composite is reported as stable cathode material for AZIBs. The introduction of PEDOT in YVO nanorods improves the crystalline structure with an enlarged interplanar lattice spacing of 3.4 Å. The PEDOT@YVO composite electrode demonstrates effective electric conductivity and a higher initial specific capacity of 308.5 mAh g −1 than that (125.5 mAh g −1 ) of the pure YVO at 0.2 C rate. It also features a long-term stable discharge–charge cycle performance of 4000 cycles with a capacity retention of 79.2% at 1C rate, better than YVO (29.4 mAh g −1 ). The oxygen vacancies and improved electrical conductivity of the composite account for the invigorated electrochemical performance. Consequently, this work reveals another avenue for constructing unique electrodes to enhance the electrochemical properties of AZIBs.
