Abstract
Due to their eco-sustainability and versatility, organic electrodes are promising candidates for large-scale energy storage in rechargeable aqueous batteries. This is notably the case of aqueous hybrid batteries that pair the low voltage of a zinc anode with the high voltage of a quinone-based (or analogue of quinone-based) organic cathode. However, the mechanisms governing their charge-discharge cycles remain poorly understood and are even a matter of debate and controversy. No consensus exists on the charge carrier in mild aqueous electrolytes, especially when working in an electrolyte containing a multivalent metal cation such as Zn2+. In this study, we comprehensively investigate the electrochemical reactivity of two model quinones, chloranil, and duroquinone, either diluted in solution or incorporated into carbon-based composite electrodes. We demonstrate that a common nine-member square scheme proton-coupled electron transfer mechanism allows us to fully describe and rationalize their electrochemical behavior in relation to the pH and chemical composition of the aqueous electrolyte. Additionally, we highlight the crucial role played by the pKas associated with the reduced states of quinones in determining the nature of the charge carrier that compensates for the negative charges reversibly injected in the active material. Finally, contrary to the widely reported findings for Zn/organic batteries, we unequivocally establish that the predominant solid-state charge carriers in Zn2+-based mild aqueous electrolytes are not multivalent Zn2+ cations but rather protons supplied by the weakly acidic hexaaqua metal ions (i.e., [Zn(H2O)6]2+]).

Abstract
Calcium-ion batteries (CIBs) are considered as potential next-generation energy storage systems due to their abundant reserves and relatively low cost. However, irreversible structural changes and weak conductivity still hinder in current CIBs cathode materials. Herein, an organic molecular intercalation strategy is proposed, in which V2O5 regulated with quinoline, pyridine, and water molecules are studied as cathode material to provide fast ion diffusion channels, large storage host, and high conductivity for Ca ions. Among them, V2O5-quinoline (QVO) owns the largest interplanar spacing of 1.25 nm and the V-O chains are connected with organic molecular by hydrogen bond, which stabilizes the crystal structure. As a result, QVO exhibits a specific capacity of 168 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 and capacity retention of 80% after 500 cycles at 5 A g-1 than the other materials. Furthermore, X-Ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy results reveal a reversible order-disorder transformation mechanism of Ca2+ for QVO, which can make full use of the abundant active sites for high capacity and simultaneously achieve fast reaction kinetics for excellent rate performance. These results demonstrate that QVO is a promising cathode material for CIBs, providing more choices for the development of high-performance CIBs.

Abstract
The emergence of layered sodium transition metal oxides featuring a multiphase structure presents a promising approach for cathode materials in sodium-ion batteries, showcasing notably improved energy storage capacity. However, the advancement of cathodes with multiphase structures faces obstacles due to the limited understanding of the integrated structural effects. Herein, the integrated structural effects by an in-depth structure-chemistry analysis in the developed layered cathode system NaxCu0.1Co0.1Ni0.25Mn0.4Ti0.15O2 with purposely designed P2/O3 phase integration, are comprehended. The results affirm that integrated phase ratio plays a pivotal role in electrochemical/structural stability, particularly at high voltage and with the incorporation of anionic redox. In contrast to previous reports advocating solely for the enhanced electrochemical performance in biphasic structures, it is demonstrated that an inappropriate composite structure is more destructive than a single-phase design. The in situ X-ray diffraction results, coupled with density functional theory computations further confirm that the biphasic structure with P2:O3 = 4:6 shows suppressed irreversible phase transition at high desodiated states and thus exhibits optimized electrochemical performance. These fundamental discoveries provide clues to the design of high-performance layered oxide cathodes for next-generation SIBs.

Abstract
Compared with conventional inorganic materials, organic electrodes are competitive candidates for secondary battery cathodes due to their resourcefulness, environmental friendliness, and cost-effectiveness. Much effort is devoted at the level of chemical structure, while ignoring the impact of molecular aggregation on battery behavior. Herein, this work designs a series of organic molecules with two electrochemically active phenothiazine groups linked by different lengths of alkyl chain to regulate molecular symmetry and crystallinity. The results emphasize the equally important role of molecular aggregation and chemical structure for battery performance. Among them, 2PTZ-C7H14|Li cell exhibits the most impressive cycle and rate performance. At the high rate of 50 C, it can still deliver a capacity of 63.4 mA h g-1 and 74.5% capacity retention after 10 000 cycles. Besides, the dropout voltage of 2PTZ-C9H18|Li cell is only 52 mV, which is among the lowest reported for lithium-organic batteries to the best of the author's knowledge.

Abstract
Versatile nitrogen-centered organic redox-active molecules have gained significant attention in alkali metal-ion batteries (AMIBs) due to their low cost, low toxicity, and ease of preparation. Specially, their multiple reaction categories (anion/cation insertion types of reaction) and higher operating voltage, when compared to traditional conjugated carbonyl materials, underscore their promising prospects. However, the high solubility of nitrogen-centered redox active materials in organic electrolyte and their low electronic conductivity contribute to inferior cycling performance, sluggish reaction kinetics, and limited rate capability. This review provides a detailed overview of nitrogen-centered redox-active materials, encompassing their redox chemistry, solutions to overcome shortcomings, characterization of charge storage mechanisms, and recent progress. Additionally, prospects and directions are proposed for future investigations. It is anticipated that this review will stimulate further exploration of underlying mechanisms and interface chemistry through in situ characterization techniques, thereby promoting the practical application of nitrogen-centered redox-active materials in AMIBs.

Abstract
Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a light-emitting process that occurs via an annihilation reaction among energetic radical intermediates, whose stabilities determine the ECL efficiency. In this study, a ligand-dimerized metal-organic framework (MOF) with ultrastable anion radical is designed as an efficient nanoemitter for self-accumulated ECL. Due to the nonplanar structure of perylene diimide (PDI) derivate, two PDI ligands in the framework form a J-dimer unit with a vertical distance of ∼5.74 Å. In cathodic scanning, the ligand-dimerized MOF demonstrates three-step ECL emissions with a gradual increase in ECL intensity. Unlike the decrease in the PDI ligand, the self-accumulated ECL of the MOF was observed with 16.8-fold enhancement due to the excellent stability of radical intermediates in frameworks. Electron paramagnetic resonance demonstrated the ultrastability of free radicals in the designed frameworks, with 82.2% remaining even after one month of storage. Density functional theory calculations supported that PDI dimerization was energetically favorable upon successive electron injection. Moreover, the ECL wavelength is 610 nm, corresponding to the emission of excited dimers. The radical-stabilized reticular nanoemitters open up a new platform for decoding the fundamentals of self-accumulated ECL systems.

Abstract
Despite the rapid expansion of the organic cathode materials field, we still face a shortage of materials obtained through simple synthesis that have stable cycling and high energy density. Herein, we report a two-step synthesis of a small organic molecule from commercially available precursors that can be used as a cathode material. Oxidized tetraquinoxalinecatechol (OTQC) was derived from tetraquinoxalinecatechol (TQC) by the introduction of additional quinone redox-active centers into the structure. The modification increased the voltage and capacity of the material. The OTQC delivers a high specific capacity of 327 mAh g-1 with an average voltage of 2.63 V vs Li/Li+ in the Li-ion battery. That corresponds to an energy density of 860 Wh kg-1 on the OTQC material level. Furthermore, the material demonstrated excellent cycling stability, having a capacity retention of 82% after 400 cycles. Similarly, the OTQC demonstrates increased average voltage and specific capacity in comparison with TQC in aqueous Zn-organic battery, reaching the specific capacity of 326 mAh g-1 with an average voltage of 0.86 V vs Zn/Zn2+. Apart from good electrochemical performance, this work provides an additional in-depth analysis of the redox mechanism and degradation mechanism related to capacity fading.

Abstract
Organic materials have been considered as promising electrodes for next-generation rechargeable batteries in view of their sustainability, structural flexibility, and potential recyclability. The radical intermediates generated during the redox process of organic electrodes have profound effect on the reversible capacity, operation voltage, rate performance, and cycling stability. However, the radicals are highly reactive and have very short lifetime during the redox of organic materials. Great efforts have been devoted to capturing and investigating the radical intermediates in organic electrodes. Herein, this review summarizes the importance, history, structures, and working principles of organic radicals in rechargeable batteries. More importantly, challenges and strategies to track and regulate the radicals in organic batteries are highlighted. Finally, further perspectives of organic radicals are proposed for the development of next-generation high-performance rechargeable organic batteries.

Abstract
Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) are one of the most practical candidates for solid-state batteries owing to their high flexibility and low production cost, but their application is limited by low Li+ conductivity and a narrow electrochemical window. To improve performance, it is necessary to reveal the structure-property relationship of SPEs. Here, 23 fluorinated linear polyesters were prepared by editing the coordination units, flexible linkage segments, and interface passivating groups. Besides the traditionally demonstrated coordinating capability and flexibility of polymer chains, the molecular asymmetry and resulting interchain aggregation are observed critical for Li+ conductivity. By tailoring the molecular asymmetry and coordination ability of polyesters, the Li+ conductivity can be raised by 10 times. Among these polyesters, solvent-free poly(pentanediol adipate) delivers the highest room-temperature Li+ conductivity of 0.59 × 10-4 S cm-1. The chelating coordination of oxalate and Li+ leads to an electron delocalization of alkoxy oxygen, enhancing the antioxidation capability of SPEs. To lower the cost, high-value LiTFSI in SPEs is recycled at 90%, and polyesters can be regenerated at 86%. This work elucidates the structure-property relationship of polyester-based SPEs, displays the design principles of SPEs, and provides a way for the development of sustainable solid-state batteries.

Abstract
Rechargeable aqueous batteries are potential systems for large-scale energy storage due to their high safety and low cost. However, developing aqueous batteries with high sustainability, affordability, and reversibility is urgent and challenging. Here we report an amphoteric aluminum hydroxyacetate (AlAc(OH)2) electrolyte with the ability of bipolar ionization of H+ and OH-, which facilitates the redox reactions at both the anthraquinone (AQ) anode and nickel hydroxide (Ni(OH)2) cathode. The bipolar ionization ability of the AlAc(OH)2(H2O)3 solvation structure results from the strong polarization ability of Al3+ and OH-. The H+/OH- dissociation ability with a dissociation constant of 5.0/3.0 is stronger than that of water (14.0), which boosts the simultaneous stable redox reactions of electrodes. Specifically, H+ uptake prevents the AQ anode from the formation of an ionic bond, suppressing the electrode dissolution, whereas OH- provides the local alkaline environment for the stable conversion reaction of the Ni(OH)2 cathode. The AQ anode in the designed AQ||Ni(OH)2 battery delivers a discharge capacity of 243.9 mAh g-1 and a capacity retention of 78.2% after 300 cycles with high reversibility. Moreover, a pouch cell with a discharge capacity of 0.90 Ah was assembled, exhibiting an energy density of 44.7 Wh kg-1 based on the total mass of the battery. This work significantly widens the types of aqueous batteries and represents a design philosophy of bipolar electrolytes and distinct electrochemical reactions with H+ and OH-.

Abstract
Rechargeable aqueous aluminum batteries (AABs) are promising energy storage technologies owing to their high safety and ultra-high energy-to-price ratio. However, either the strong electrostatic forces between high-charge-density Al3+ and host lattice, or sluggish large carrier-ion diffusion toward the conventional inorganic cathodes generates inferior cycling stability and low rate-capacity. To overcome these inherent confinements, a series of promising redox-active organic materials (ROMs) are investigated and a π-conjugated structure ROMs with synergistic C═O and C═N groups is optimized as the new cathode in AABs. Benefiting from the joint utilization of multi-redox centers and rich π-π intermolecular interactions, the optimized ROMs with unique ion coordination storage mechanism facilely accommodate complex active ions with mitigated coulombic repulsion and robust lattice structure, which is further validated via theoretical simulations. Thus, the cathode achieves enhanced rate performance (153.9 mAh g-1 at 2.0 A g-1 ) and one of the best long-term stabilities (125.7 mAh g-1 after 4,000 cycles at 1.0 A g-1 ) in AABs. Via molecular exploitation, this work paves the new direction toward high-performance cathode materials in aqueous multivalent-ion battery systems.

Abstract
Organic active materials are seen as next-generation battery materials that could circumvent the sustainability and cost limitations connected with the current Li-ion battery technology while at the same time enabling novel battery functionalities like a bioderived feedstock, biodegradability, and mechanical flexibility. Many promising research results have recently been published. However, the reproducibility and comparison of the literature results are somehow limited due to highly variable electrode formulations and electrochemical testing conditions. In this Perspective, we provide a critical view of the organic cathode active materials and suggest future guidelines for electrochemical characterization, capacity evaluation, and mechanistic investigation to facilitate reproducibility and benchmarking of literature results, leading to the accelerated development of organic electrode active materials for practical applications.

Abstract
ConspectusLithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have achieved great success and dominated the market of portable electronics and electric vehicles owing to their high energy density and long-term cyclability. However, if applying LIBs for large-scale energy storage scenarios, such as regulating the output of electricity generated by sustainable energy in the future age of carbon neutrality, the current electrochemistry of LIBs based on Li-ion interaction/deinteraction between a transition-metal oxide cathode and graphite anode will suffer from problems of scarce natural resources (e.g., Li, Co, and Ni) and high energy consumption/CO2 emission involved in the production of electrodes. Similarly, other commercial batteries such as lead-acid batteries and nickel-metal hydride batteries are also plagued by these issues.In contrast, organic electrode materials, especially carbonyl materials, exhibit advantages of abundant resources, renewability, high capacity, environmental friendliness, and structural designability and have shown great promise for various rechargeable batteries in recent years. However, organic carbonyl electrode materials generally exhibit unsatisfactory cycling stability and rate performance, which are highly dependent on the electrolyte and interfacial chemistry. Appropriate electrolytes and a stable electrode/electrolyte interface would be beneficial for preventing the dissolution of organic carbonyl electrode materials and/or their redox intermediates in electrolytes and promoting fast ion transport between the electrode and electrolyte. In this regard, designing an appropriate electrolyte and constructing a stable electrode/electrolyte interface are the keys to enhancing the comprehensive performance of organic carbonyl electrode materials.In this Account, on the basis of our progress and related works from other groups in the past decade, we afford an overview of understanding the effects of electrolyte and interfacial chemistry on the electrochemical performance of organic carbonyl electrode materials. We will start by briefly introducing the basic properties, working mechanisms, and issues of organic carbonyl electrode materials. Then, the implications of electrolyte and electrode/electrolyte interfacial chemistry on electrochemical performance will be summarized and highlighted through discussing the performance of organic carbonyl electrodes in different types of electrolytes (organic liquid and aqueous and solid-state electrolytes). Meanwhile, the design principles of electrolytes and interfacial chemistry for organic carbonyl electrodes are also discussed. A representative example is that organic carbonyl electrode materials often exhibit better electrochemical performance in ether-based electrolytes than in ester-based electrolytes, which could be mainly attributed to the stable and robust solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formed on carbonyl electrodes in the ether-based electrolyte. This example demonstrates the importance of investigating the electrode/electrolyte interfacial chemistry of organic carbonyl electrode materials. Finally, future perspectives on designing appropriate electrolytes and understanding electrode/electrolyte interfacial chemistry will also be discussed. It is meaningful to thoroughly reveal the dynamic evolution of the electrode/electrolyte interface during discharge/charge processes and evaluate the compatibility between electrolytes and organic carbonyl electrode materials under practical conditions using limited quantities of electrolytes and high areal-specific-capacity electrodes in the future. This Account could attract more attention to electrolytes and the electrode/electrolyte interfacial chemistry of organic carbonyl electrode materials and finally promote their future commercial applications.

Abstract
Polyimide covalent organic frameworks (PI-COFs) are outstanding functional materials for electrochemical energy conversion and storage owing to their integrated advantages of the high electroactive feature of polyimides and the periodic porous structure of COFs. Nevertheless, only anhydride monomers with C2 symmetry are generally used, and limited selectivity of electron-deficient monomers has become a major obstacle in the development of materials. The introduction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is a very effective method to regulate the structure-activity relationship of PI-COFs due to their excellent stability and electrical properties. Over the past two years, various star-shaped electron-deficient PAH building blocks possessing different compositions and topologies have been successfully fabricated, greatly improving the monomer selectivity and electrochemical performances of PI-COFs. This paper systematically summarizes the recent highlights in PI-COFs based on these building blocks. Firstly, the preparation of anhydride (or phthalic acid) monomers and PI-COFs related to different star-shaped PAHs is presented. Secondly, the applications of these PI-COFs in energy conversion and storage and the corresponding factors influencing their performance are discussed in detail. Finally, the future development of this meaningful field is briefly proposed.

Abstract
Considering the extensive resources, flexible structural designability, and abundant active sites, organic electrodes have been considered as the ideal sodium storage materials. However, organic materials generally face the limitations of unstable and dissolved characteristic, leading to a poor cyclic stability. In this work, we proposed a carbon nanotube (CNT) modified polyimide as the anode for sodium-based dual-ion battery (SDIB). The polyimide remains well the structure and morphology of monomer with a stable conjugated structure and high degree of crystallinity, effectively enhancing the electrochemical performance of the SDIBs. Also, the cooperation with CNT particularly improves the ion conductivity of the anode and advances the rate performance. Combined with an ionic liquid electrolyte, the constructed dual-ion battery exhibits excellent rate capability, high specific discharge capacity and stable cycling performance. It delivers a specific discharge capacity of 119.3 mA h g-1 at 0.2 C (1 C=100 mA g-1 ) and still has a specific discharge capacity of 82.3 mA h g-1 even after 1000 cycles at 10 C. Besides, the system displays a low self-discharge rate and stable fast charging performance, which is expected to be applied in the large-scale electrochemical energy storage devices and inspire the future development of SDIBs.

Abstract
Organic electrode materials (OEMs), valued for their sustainability and structural tunability, have been attracting increasing attention for wide application in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) and other rechargeable batteries. However, most OEMs are plagued with insufficient specific capacity or poor cycling stability. Therefore, it's imperative to enhance their specific capacity and cycling stability through molecular design. Herein, we designed and synthesized a heteroaromatic molecule 2,3,8,9,14,15-hexanol hexaazatrinaphthalene (HATN-6OH) by the synergetic coupling of catechol (the precursor of ortho-quinone)/ortho-quinone functional groups and HATN conjugated core structures. The abundance of catechol/ortho-quinone and imine redox-active moieties delivers a high specific capacity of nine-electron transfer for SIBs. Most notably, the π-π interactions and intermolecular hydrogen bond forces among HATN-6OH molecules secure the stable long-term cycling performance of SIBs. Consequently, the as-prepared HATN-6OH electrode exhibited a high specific capacity (554 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 ), excellent rate capability (202 mAh g-1 at 10 A g-1 ), and stable long-term cycling performance (73 % after 3000 cycles at 10 A g-1 ) in SIBs. Additionally, the nine-electron transfer mechanism is confirmed by systematic density functional theory (DFT) calculation, attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), and Raman analysis. The achievement of the synergetic coupling of the redox-active sites on OEMs could be an important key to the enhancement of SIBs and other metal-ion batteries.

Abstract
Li3 VO4 is a promising anode material for use in lithium-ion batteries, however, the conventional synthesis methods for Li3 VO4 anodes involve the separate use of lithium and carbon sources, resulting in inefficient contact and low crystalline quality. Herein, lithium polyacrylate (LiPAA) was utilized as a dual-functional source and an in-situ polymerization followed by a spray-drying method was employed to synthesize Li3 VO4 . LiPAA serves a dual purpose, acting as both a lithium source to improve the crystal process and a carbon source to confine the particle size within a desired volume during high-temperature treatment. Additionally, the in-situ synthesis of a porous carbon decorating skeleton prevents the growth and agglomeration of Li3 VO4 particles and provides abundant ion/electron diffusion channels and contact areas. Based on the synthesis route and the constructed primary-secondary structure, the Li3 VO4 anodes obtained in this study exhibit an impressive capacity of 596.2 mAh g-1 . Moreover, they demonstrate enhanced rate performance over 600 cycles during 10 periods of rate testing, as well as a remarkably long lifespan of 5000 cycles at high currents. The utilization of LiPAA as a dual-functional source represents a broad approach that holds great potential for future research on high-performance electrodes requiring both lithium and carbon sources.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 649:159-165. [PMID: 37348335 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.06.052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/24/2023]
Abstract
High-performance organic small-molecule electrode materials are troubled with their high solubility in liquid electrolytes. The construction of quasi-solid-state lithium organic batteries (LOBs) using gel polymer electrolytes with high mechanical properties, compromised ionic conductivity, high safety, and eco-friendly is an effective way to inhibit the dissolution of active materials. Herein, two hexaazatriphenylene (HATN)-based organic cathode materials (HATNA-6OCH3 and HATNA-6OH) are synthesized and then matched with polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP)-based gel polymer electrolytes to construct quasi-solid-state LOBs. Thanks to the enhanced interfacial compatibility between organic cathode material and gel polymer electrolyte, HATNA-6OH with compatible hydroxyl group shows the enhanced electrochemical properties compared with HATNA-6OCH3. Further, the electrochemical performance is improved when HATNA-6OH is combined with a gel polymer electrolyte modified with a succinonitrile (SN) plasticizer (GPE-0.4SN), including a high specific capacity of 153.3 mAh g-1 at 50 mA g-1 and a good reversible capacity of 88 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles at 200 mA g-1. In addition, the good electrochemical properties and lithium-ion storage mechanism of HATNA-6OH have been elucidated using density functional theory (DFT) and spectral characterizations.

Abstract
The poly(2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone-3,6-methylene) (denoted as PDBM) capable of reversible coordination/uncoordination with both mono- and multivalent cations in aqueous electrolytes is desired to develop safe, sustainable, and cost-effective aqueous rechargeable batteries (ARBs). However, the comprehensive mechanism between the electrochemical performance of PDBM and properties of these metal cations is unclear. Herein, we initially demonstrate the universality of PDBM to reversibly coordinate/uncoordinate with various cations (Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, Al3+, etc.) with high specific capacities (>200 mA h g-1), high rate capabilities (∼20 C), and long cycling life (5000 cycles). Additionally, an unprecedented ion-coordination mechanism is presented: the monovalent cations prefer to occupy the in-plane sites with respect to the benzene rings of PDBM during the electrochemical reduced process, while the multivalent cations with the larger charge density tend to occupy the out-of-plane sites, which can use more active sites in the PDBM molecule and deliver the higher specific capacities. Meanwhile, the redox potential of PDBM decreases with the decrease in the binding energy between metal cations and PDBM molecules. The universality of PDBM to numerous cations is beneficial to design high-safety, low-cost, and long-lifespan ARBs for large-scale energy storage systems by modulating the aqueous electrolytes.

Abstract
High-throughput virtual screening (HTVS) has been increasingly applied as an effective approach to find candidate materials for energy applications. We performed a HTVS study, which is powered by: (i) automated virtual screening library generation, (ii) automated search on a readily purchasable chemical space of quinone-based compounds, and (iii) computed physicochemical descriptors for the prediction of key battery-related features of compounds, including the reduction potential, gravimetric energy density, gravimetric charge capacity, and molecular stability. From the initial virtual library of approximately 450k molecules, a total of 326 compounds have been identified as commercially available. Among them, 289 of the molecules are predicted to be stable for the sodiation reactions that take place at the sodium-ion battery cathodes. To study the behaviour of molecules over time at room temperature, we performed molecular dynamics simulations on a group of sodiated product molecules, which was narrowed down to 21 quinones after scrutinizing the key battery performance indicators. As a result, 17 compounds are suggested for validation as candidate cathode materials in sodium-ion batteries.

Abstract
The charged forms of π-conjugated chromophores are relevant in the field of organic electronics as charge carriers in optoelectronic devices, but also as energy storage substrates in organic batteries. In this context, intramolecular reorganization energy plays an important role in controlling material efficiency. In this work, we investigate how the diradical character influences the reorganization energies of holes and electrons by considering a library of diradicaloid chromophores. We determine the reorganization energies with the four-point adiabatic potential method using quantum-chemical calculations at density functional theory (DFT) level. To assess the role of diradical character, we compare the results obtained, assuming both closed-shell and open-shell representations of the neutral species. The study shows how the diradical character impacts the geometrical and electronic structure of neutral species, which in turn control the magnitude of reorganization energies for both charge carriers. Based on computed geometries of neutral and charged species, we propose a simple scheme to rationalize the small, computed reorganization energies for both n-type and p-type charge transport. The study is supplemented with the calculation of intermolecular electronic couplings governing charge transport for selected diradicals, further supporting the ambipolar character of the investigated diradicals.

Abstract
Developing bifunctional catalysts for oxygen electrochemical reactions is essential for high-performance electrochemical energy devices. Here, a Mott-Schottky heterojunction composed of porous cobalt-nitrogen-carbon (Co-N-C) polyhedra containing abundant metal-phosphides for reversible oxygen electrocatalysis is reported. As a demonstration, this catalyst shows excellent activity in the oxygen electrocatalysis and thus delivers outstanding performance in rechargeable zinc-air batteries (ZABs). The built-in electric field in the Mott-Schottky heterojunction can promote electron transfer in oxygen electrocatalysis. More importantly, an appropriate d-band center of the heterojunction catalyst also endows oxygen intermediates with a balanced adsorption/desorption capability, thus enhancing oxygen electrocatalysis and consequently improving the performance of ZABs. The work demonstrates an important design principle for preparing efficient multifunctional catalysts in energy conversion technologies.

Abstract
Lithium-ion batteries have received significant attention over the last decades due to the wide application of portable electronics and increasing deployment of electric vehicles. In order to further enhance the performance of the batteries and overcome the capacity limitations of inorganic electrode materials, it is imperative to explore new cathode and functional materials for rechargeable lithium batteries. Organosulfur materials containing sulfur-sulfur bonds as a kind of promising organic electrode materials have the advantages of high capacities, abundant resources, tunable structures, and environmental benignity. In addition, organosulfur materials have been widely used in almost every aspect of rechargeable batteries because of their multiple functionalities. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview on the development of organosulfur materials including the synthesis and application as cathode materials, electrolyte additives, electrolytes, binders, active materials in lithium redox flow batteries, and other metal battery systems. We also give an in-depth analysis of structure-property-performance relationship of organosulfur materials, and guidance for the future development of organosulfur materials for next generation rechargeable lithium batteries and beyond.

Abstract
Organic electrode materials have application potential in lithium batteries owing to their high capacity, abundant resources, and structural designability. However, most reported organic cathodes are at oxidized states (namely unlithiated compounds) and thus need to couple with Li-rich anodes. In contrast, lithiated organic cathode materials could act as a Li reservoir and match with Li-free anodes such as graphite, showing great promise for practical full-battery applications. Here we summarize the synthesis, stability, and battery applications of lithiated organic cathode materials, including synthetic methods, stability against O2 and H2 O in air, and strategies to improve comprehensive electrochemical performance. Future research should be focused on new redox chemistries and the construction of full batteries with lithiated organic cathodes and commercial anodes under practical conditions. This Minireview will encourage more efforts on lithiated organic cathode materials and finally promote their commercialization.

Abstract
Organic batteries using redox-active polymers and small organic compounds have become promising candidates for next-generation energy storage devices due to the abundance, environmental benignity, and diverse nature of organic resources. To date, tremendous research efforts have been devoted to developing advanced organic electrode materials and understanding the material structure-performance correlation in organic batteries. In contrast, less attention was paid to the correlation between electrolyte structure and battery performance, despite the critical roles of electrolytes for the dissolution of organic electrode materials, the formation of the electrode-electrolyte interphase, and the solvation/desolvation of charge carriers. In this review, we discuss the prospects and challenges of organic batteries with an emphasis on electrolytes. The differences between organic and inorganic batteries in terms of electrolyte property requirements and charge storage mechanisms are elucidated. To provide a comprehensive and thorough overview of the electrolyte development in organic batteries, the electrolytes are divided into four categories including organic liquid electrolytes, aqueous electrolytes, inorganic solid electrolytes, and polymer-based electrolytes, to introduce different components, concentrations, additives, and applications in various organic batteries with different charge carriers, interphases, and separators. The perspectives and outlook for the future development of advanced electrolytes are also discussed to provide a guidance for the electrolyte design and optimization in organic batteries. We believe that this review will stimulate an in-depth study of electrolytes and accelerate the commercialization of organic batteries.

Abstract
Organic small molecules with electrochemically active and reversible redox groups are excellent candidates for energy storage systems due to their abundant natural origin and design flexibility. However, their practical application is generally limited by inherent electrical insulating properties and high solubility. To achieve both high energy density and power density, organic small molecules are usually immobilized on the surface of a carbon substrate with a high specific surface area and excellent electrical conductivity through non-covalent interactions or chemical bonds. The resulting composite materials are called organic small-molecule electrodes (OMEs). The redox reaction of OMEs occurs near the surface with fast kinetic and higher utilization compared to storing charge through diffusion-limited Faraday reactions. In the past decade, our research group has developed a large number of novel OMEs with different connections or molecular skeletons. This paper introduces the latest development of OMEs for efficient energy storage. Furthermore, we focus on the design motivation, structural advantages, charge storage mechanism, and various electrode parameters of OMEs. With small organic molecules as the active center, OMEs can significantly improve the energy density at low molecular weight through proton-coupled electron transfer, which is not limited by lattice size. Finally, we outline possible trends in the rational design of OMEs toward high-performance supercapacitors.

Abstract
All-organic symmetric lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) show promising prospects in sustainable energy storage systems, due to their environmental friendliness, structural diversity and low cost. Nevertheless, it remains a great challenge to explore suitable electrode materials and achieve excellent battery performance for all-organic symmetric LIBs. Herein, a squaraine-anthraquinone polymer (PSQ) electrode material was designed through rational molecular engineering. The well-designed extended π-conjugated system, donor-acceptor structure, abundant redox-active sites and rational manipulation of weak inter-/intramolecular interactions endow the PSQ electrode with outstanding electrochemical performance. The capacity of the PSQ cathode can be optimized to 311.5 mA h g-1 by in situ carbon-template polymerization. Impressively, PSQ-based all-organic symmetric LIBs displayed high reversible capacity (170.8 mA h g-1 at 50 mA g-1), excellent rate performance (64.9% capacity retention at 4000 mA g-1 vs. 50 mA g-1), ultralong cycle life up to 30 000 cycles at 2000 mA g-1 and 97% capacity retention after 2500 cycles at 500 mA g-1, which is one of the best comprehensive battery performances among the all-organic LIBs reported thus far.

Abstract
Redox-active carbonyl-containing compounds have received extensive attention as cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) because of their excellent attributes, including elemental sustainability, high theoretical capacity, diverse structures, and tunable properties. However, the storage of Na+ in most carbonyl-based cathode materials is plagued by the low capacity, unsatisfying rate performance, and short cycling life. Herein, we develop a series of anthraquinone-based conjugated polymer cathodes consisting of anthraquinone and benzene with different linking patterns. It reveals that the linkage sites on benzene ring could affect the electronic structures of the resulting polymers and thus their charge-storage capabilities. The 1,2,4,5-linkage on benzene leads to a high surface area, a narrow band gap, and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital for the resulting polymer PBAQ-3. As a cathode for SIBs, it delivers a high capacity of around 200 mAh g-1 and excellent rate performance (105 mAh g-1 at 200 C) as well as stable cycling with a capacity retention of 95.8% after 1000 cycles at 0.05 A g-1 and 83.1% after 40000 cycles at 3 A g-1. Our findings highlight the influence of linking patterns of the building blocks on the electrochemical performance of organic electrodes.

Abstract
It is still very urgent and challenging to simultaneously develop high-rate and long-cycle oxide cathodes for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) because of the sluggish kinetics and complex multiphase evolution during cycling. Here, the concept of accurately manipulating structural evolution and formulating high-performance heterostructured biphasic layered oxide cathodes by local chemistry and orbital hybridization modulation is reported. The P2-structure stoichiometric composition of the cathode material shows a layered P2- and O3-type heterostructure that is explicitly evidenced by various macroscale and atomic-scale techniques. Surprisingly, the heterostructured cathode displays excellent rate performance, remarkable cycling stability (capacity retention of 82.16% after 600 cycles at 2 C), and outstanding compatibility with hard carbon anode because of the integrated advantages of intergrowth structure and local environment regulation. Meanwhile, the formation process from precursors during calcination and the highly reversible dynamic structural evolution during the Na+ intercalation/deintercalation process are clearly articulated by a series of in situ characterization techniques. Also, the intrinsic structural properties and corresponding electrochemical behavior are further elucidated by the density of states and electron localization function of density functional theory calculations. Overall, this strategy, which finely tunes the local chemistry and orbitals hybridization for high-performance SIBs, will open up a new field for other materials.

Abstract
Zn metal has shown promise as an anode material for grid-level energy storage, yet is challenged by dendritic growth and low Coulombic efficiency. Herein, an ultrafast, stable, and high-loading polymer anode for aqueous Zn-ion batteries and capacitors (ZIBs and ZICs) is developed by engineering both the electrode and electrolyte. The anode polymer is rationally prepared to have a suitable electronic structure and a large π-conjugated structure, whereas the electrolyte is manufactured based on the superiority of triflate anions over sulfate anions, as analyzed and confirmed via experiments and simulations. This dual engineering results in an optimal polymer anode with a low discharge potential, near-theoretical capacity, ultrahigh-loading capability (≈50 mg cm-2 ), ultrafast rate (100 A g-1 ), and ultralong lifespan (one million cycles). Its mechanism involves reversible Zn2+ /proton co-storage at the carbonyl site. When the polymer anode is coupled with cathodes for both ZIB and ZIC applications, the devices demonstrate ultrahigh power densities and ultralong lifespans, far surpassing those of corresponding Zn-metal-based devices.

Abstract
Elaborate molecular design on cathodes is of great importance for rechargeable aqueous zinc-organic batteries' performance elevation. Herein, we design a novel orthoquinone-based covalent organic framework with an ordered channel structures (BT-PTO COF) cathode for an ultrahigh performance aqueous zinc-organic battery. The ordered channel structure facilitates ions transfer and makes the COF follow a redox pseudocapacitance mechanism. Thus, it delivers a high reversible capacity of 225 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 and an exceptional long-term cyclability (retention rate 98.0 % at 5 A g-1 (≈18 C) after 10 000 cycles). Moreover, a co-insertion mechanism with Zn2+ first followed by two H+ is uncovered for the first time. Significantly, this co-insertion behaviour evolves to more H+ insertion routes at high current density and gives the COF ultra-fast kinetics thus it achieves unprecedented specific power of 184 kW kg-1 (COF) and a high energy density of 92.4 Wh kg-1 (COF) . Our work reports a superior organic material for zinc batteries and provides a design idea for future high-performance organic cathodes.

Abstract
Small molecule organic acids as electrode materials possess the advantages of high theoretical capacity, low cost, and good processability. However, these electrode materials suffer from poor cycling stability due to the inevitable dissolution of organic molecules in the electrolytes. Here, a eutectic mixture of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide and N-methylamine is employed as a eutectic electrolyte in Li-ion batteries with small molecule organic acids as electrodes. To enhance the cycling stability of the electrolyte, fluoroethylene carbonate is used as an additive. The electrolyte exhibits nonflammability, high ionic conductivity, and good electrochemical stability. Molecular dynamics simulations and density functional theory are performed to further investigate the solvation chemistry of the eutectic electrolyte. The well-designed eutectic electrolyte inhibits the dissolution of terephthalic acid effectively and displays superior performance with a capacity retention of ≈84% after 2000 cycles at a high current density of 1 A g-1 . It also enables stable cycling of more than 900 cycles at a high current density of 2 A g-1 at 60 °C. This study provides a strategy to enhance the cycling stability and safety of Li-ion batteries with organic electrode materials.
