Design of heterostructured hydrangea-like FeS 2/MoS 2 encapsulated in nitrogen-doped carbon as high-performance anode for potassium-ion capacitors. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 664:96-106. [PMID: 38460388 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.03.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 03/01/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/11/2024]
Abstract
The means of structural hybridization such as heterojunction construction and carbon-coating engineering for facilitating charge transfer and electron transport are considered viable strategies to address the challenges associated with the low rate capability and poor cycling stability of sulfide-based anodes in potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). Motivated by these concepts, we have successfully prepared a hydrangea-like bimetallic sulfide heterostructure encapsulated in nitrogen-doped carbon (FMS@NC) using a simple solvothermal method, followed by poly-dopamine wrapping and a one-step sulfidation/carbonization process. When served as an anode for PIBs, this FMS@NC demonstrates a high specific capacity (585 mAh g-1 at 0.05 A/g) and long cycling stability. Synergetic effects of mitigated volume expansions and enhanced conductivity that are responsbile for such high performance have been verified to originate from the heterostructured sulfides and the N-doped carbon matrix. Meanwhile, comprehensive characterization reveals existence of an intercalation-conversion hybrid K-ion storage mechanism in this material. Impressively, a K-ion capacitor with the FMS@NC anode and a commercial activated carbon cathode exhibits a superior energy density of up to 192 Wh kg-1, a high power density, and outstanding cycling stability. This study provides constructive guidance for designing high-performance and durable potassium-ion storage anodes for next-generation energy storage devices.

Abstract
New-fashioned electrode hosts for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are elaborately engineered to involve multifunctional active components that can synergistically conquer the critical issues of severe volume deformation and sluggish reaction kinetics of electrodes toward immensely enhanced battery performance. Herein, it is first reported that single-phase CoPS, a new metal phosphosulfide for SIBs, in the form of quantum dots, is successfully introduced into a leaf-shaped conductive carbon nanosheet, which can be further in situ anchored on a 3D interconnected branch-like N-doped carbon nanofiber (N-CNF) to construct a hierarchical branch-leaf-shaped CoPS@C@N-CNF architecture. Both double carbon decorations and ultrafine crystal of the CoPS in-this exquisite architecture hold many significant superiorities, such as favorable train-relaxation, fast interfacial ion-migration, multi-directional migration pathways, and sufficiently exposed Na+ -storage sites. In consequence, the CoPS@C@N-CNF affords remarkable long-cycle durability over 10 000 cycles at 20.0 A g-1 and superior rate capability. Meanwhile, the CoPS@C@N-CNF-based sodium-ion full cell renders the potential proof-of-feasibility for practical applications in consideration of its high durability over a long-term cyclic lifespan with remarkable reversible capacity. Moreover, the phase transformation mechanism of the CoPS@C@N-CNF and fundamental springhead of the enhanced performance are disclosed by in situ X-ray diffraction, ex situ high-resolution TEM, and theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Gallium nitride (GaN) single crystal, as the representative of wide-band semiconductors, has great prospects for high-temperature energy storage, of its splendid power output, robust temperature stability, and superior carrier mobility. Nonetheless, it is an essential challenge for GaN-based devices to improve energy storage. Herein, an innovative strategy is proposed by constructing GaN/Nickel cobalt oxygen (NiCoO2 )heterostructure for enhanced supercapacitors (SCs). Benefiting from the synergy effect between the porous GaN network as a highly conductive skeleton and the NiCoO2 with massive active sites. The GaN/NiCoO2 heterostructure-based SCs with ion liquids electrolyte are assembled and delivered an impressive energy density of 15.2 µWh cm-2 and power density, as well as superior service life at 130 °C. The theoretical calculation further explains that the reason for the energy storage enhancement of the GaN/NiCoO2 is due to the presence of the built-in electric fields. This work offers a novel perspective for meeting the practical application of GaN-based energy storage devices with exceptional performance capable of operation under high-temperature environments.

A Versatile Strategy for Achieving Fast-Charging Batteries via Interfacial Engineering: Pseudocapacitive Potassium Storage without Nanostructuring. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2022; 18:e2202798. [PMID: 35661400 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202202798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The rapid transport of alkali ions in electrodes is a long-time dream for fast-charging batteries. Though electrode nanostructuring has increased the rate-capability, its practical use is limited because of the low tap density and severe irreversible reactions. Therefore, development of a strategy to design fast-charging micron-sized electrodes without nanostructuring is of significant importance. Herein, a simple and versatile strategy to accelerate the alkali ion diffusion behavior in micron-sized electrode is reported. It is demonstrated that the diffusion rate of K+ ions is significantly improved at the hetero-interface between orthorhombic Nb2 O5 (001) and monoclinic MoO2 (110) planes. Lattice distortion at the hetero-interface generates an inner space large enough for the facile transport of K+ ions, and electron localization near oxygen-vacant sites further enhances the ion diffusion behavior. As a result, the interfacial-engineered micron-sized anode material achieves an outstanding rate capability in potassium-ion batteries (KIBs), even higher than nanostructured orthorhombic Nb2 O5 which is famous for fast-charging electrodes. This is the first study to develop an intercalation pseudocapacitive micron-sized anode without nanostructuring for fast-charging and high volumetric energy density KIBs. More interestingly, this strategy is not limited to K+ ion, but also applicable to Li+ ion, implying the versatility of interfacial engineering for alkali ion batteries.
