1D single-crystal nanobelts, assembled from monolayer sodium titanate nanobelts featuring intensively exposed crystal planes, exhibit excellent electrochemical activity, robust electrochemo-mechanical stability, and favorable charge storage kinetics. As a result, these unique structural properties contribute to a low-strain characteristic during repeated...

This study introduces a ring-opening polymerization strategy to reconfigured PAN network via synergetic effect of EC and LLZTO, endowing the PAN-based SPE with enhanced ionic conductivity and interfacial stability toward Li metal. Consequently, the PAN SPE exhibits high ionic conductivity of 2.96 × 10−4 S cm−1, and the LFP/Li cell delivers the excellence...

Pt/C catalysts differing only in the locality of the Pt nanoparticles, whether inside or outside of the pores of the same carbon support, are needed to study the effect of said locality. Depending on the carbon support used, nanoparticles inside the pores can show hindered accessibility and ORR performance. Abstract For global deployment...

Aqueous nickel-organic batteries exhibit significant promise for large-scale energy storage applications. This work employs high-concentration KOH electrolytes to suppress the undesirable dissolution of organic phenazine(PZ) anode. The phenazine anode offers a high initial specific capacity and excellent cycle life. Moreover, ampere-hour-scale PZ/Ni(OH)2...

This review summaries the latest progress on advanced Zn ion capacitors. Importantly, it reveals the inherent relationship between the compatible principle of devices and the design paradigm of electrode materials. Besides, those frontier applications of such device are also pointed out, as well as their development prospective. Abstract The...

A heteronuclear Fe–Zn dual-atom catalyst (FeZnNC) is developed for electrocatalytic CO2 reduction to CO. The intrinsic electron transfer between the Fe and Zn centers in Fe–Zn diatomic sites regulates the adsorption and activation of the reactant and intermediates on active Zn sites, endowing FeZnNC with ≈100% selectivity for CO products in strongly...
