Abstract
Among the challenges related to rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) still not resolved are positive electrode materials with sufficient charge storage and rate capability as well as stability and raw material resources. Out of the materials proposed and studied so far, vanadium oxides stand out for these requirements, but significant further improvements are expected and required. They will be based on new materials and an improved understanding of their mode of operation. This report provides a critical review focused on this material, which is embedded in a brief overview on the general subject. It starts with the main strategic ways to design layered vanadium oxides cathodes for RMBs. Taking these examples in more detail, the typical issues and challenges often missed in broader overviews and reviews are discussed. In particular, issues related to the electrochemistry of intercalation processes in layered vanadium oxides; advantageous strategies for the development of vanadium oxide composite cathodes; their mechanism in aqueous, "wet", and dry non-aqueous aprotic systems; and the possibility of co-intercalation processes involving protons and magnesium ions are considered. The perspectives for future development of vanadium oxide-based cathode materials are finally discussed and summarized.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) and aqueous magnesium ion batteries (AMIBs) offer powerful alternatives for large-scale energy storage because of their high safety and low cost. Consequently, the design of high-performance cathode materials is essential. In this paper, we present a simple strategy that combines oxygen defect (Od) engineering with a 2D-on-2D homogeneous nanopape-like bilayer V2O5 nH2O xerogel (BL-HVOd NPS). This strategy employs Od to improve Zn2+/Mg2+insertion/extraction kinetics and reduce irreversible processes for high-performance AZIBs/AMIBs. And interlayer water molecules serve as an effective spacer to stabilize the expanded interlayer gap in BL-HVOd NPS, thereby providing extended diffusion channels for Zn2+/Mg2+ during insertion/extraction. The interlayer water molecules help shield the electrostatic interaction between Zn2+/Mg2+ and BL-HVOd NPS lattice, which improves diffusion kinetics during repeated. In addition, electrochemical characterization results indicate that the BL-HVOd NPS can effectively the surface adsorption and internal diffusion of Zn2+/Mg2+. More importantly, the successfully prepared unique 2D-on-2D homogenous nanopaper structure enhances electrolyte/electrode contact and reduces the migration/diffusion path of electrons/Zn2+ and Mg2+, thus greatly improving rate performance. As a result, the BL-HVOd NPS as AZIBs/AMIBs electrodes offer better reversible capacity of 361.8 and 162.8 mA h g-1 (at 0.2 A g-1), while displaying impressively long cycle lifes. This method provides a way to prepare advanced xerogel cathode materials for AZIBs and AMIBs.

Abstract
Rechargeable magnesium-metal batteries (RMMBs) are promising next-generation secondary batteries; however, their development is inhibited by the low capacity and short cycle lifespan of cathodes. Although various strategies have been devised to enhance the Mg2+ migration kinetics and structural stability of cathodes, they fail to improve electronic conductivity, rendering the cathodes incompatible with magnesium-metal anodes. Herein, we propose a dual-defect engineering strategy, namely, the incorporation of Mg2+ pre-intercalation defect (P-Mgd) and oxygen defect (Od), to simultaneously improve the Mg2+ migration kinetics, structural stability, and electronic conductivity of the cathodes of RMMBs. Using lamellar V2O5·nH2O as a demo cathode material, we prepare a cathode comprising Mg0.07V2O5·1.4H2O nanobelts composited with reduced graphene oxide (MVOH/rGO) with P-Mgd and Od. The Od enlarges interlayer spacing, accelerates Mg2+ migration kinetics, and prevents structural collapse, while the P-Mgd stabilizes the lamellar structure and increases electronic conductivity. Consequently, the MVOH/rGO cathode exhibits a high capacity of 197 mAh g-1, and the developed Mg foil//MVOH/rGO full cell demonstrates an incredible lifespan of 850 cycles at 0.1 A g-1, capable of powering a light-emitting diode. The proposed dual-defect engineering strategy provides new insights into developing high-durability, high-capacity cathodes, advancing the practical application of RMMBs, and other new secondary batteries.

Abstract
Resolving the sluggish transport kinetics of divalent Zn2+ in the cathode lattice and improving mass-loading performance are crucial for advancing the zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) application. Herein, PEO-LiV3 O8 superlattice nanosheets (PEO-LVO) with expanded interlayer spacing (1.16 nm) are fabricated to provide a high-rate, stable lifetime, and large mass-loading cathode. The steady in-plane expansion without shrinkage after the first cycle, but reversible H+ /Zn2+ co-insertion in PEO-LVO are demonstrated by operando synchrotron X-ray diffraction and ex situ characterizations. Moreover, the large capacity of PEO-LVO is traced back to the optimized Zn2+ insertion chemistry with increased Zn2+ storage ratio, which is facilitated by the interlayer PEO in lowering the Zn2+ diffusion barrier and increased number of active sites from additional interfaces, as anticipated by density functional theory. Due to the optimized ion insertion resulting in stalled interfacial byproducts and rapid kinetics, PEO-LVO achieves excellent high mass-loading performance (areal capacity up to 6.18 mAh cm-2 for freestanding electrode with 24 mg cm-2 mass-loading and 2.8 mAh cm-2 at 130 mA cm-2 for conventional electrode with 27 mg cm-2 mass-loading). As a proof-of-concept, the flexible all-solid-state fiber-shaped AZIBs with high mass-loading woven into a fabric can power an electronic watch, highlighting the application potential of PEO-LVO cathode.

Abstract
Engineering optimal cathode materials is significant for developing stable magnesium-ion (Mg-ion) batteries. Here, we present a single-crystalline Co3O4 nanoparticle-chain three-dimensional (3D) micro/nanostructure as an Mg-ion battery cathode. The hierarchical morphology is composed of radial nanochains self-assembled by single-crystalline nanoparticles, thus significantly facilitating the transfer of electrons and ions. 3D single-crystalline Co3O4 as an Mg-ion battery cathode displays a stable capacity of 111.7 mA h g-1 after 200 cycles with a decay rate per cycle as low as 0.037%. After four rounds of testing, the rate performance remains stable with a tiny decrease from 125.94 to 124.78 mA h g-1. At temperatures of 45 °C and -5 °C, the cathode still displays good stability and rate-performance. Galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) results verify a low energy barrier of the Co3O4 cathode. It is expected that the single-crystalline nanoparticle-assembled 3D structure and the stable Mg-storage performance will find broad applications for developing other stable energy-storage materials and their batteries.

Abstract
Exploring low-cost and high-efficient electrocatalyst is an exigent task in developing novel sustainable energy conversion systems, such as fuel cells and electrocatalytic fuel generations. 2D materials, specifically 2D superlattice materials focused here, featured highly accessible active areas, high density of active sites, and high compatibility with property-complementary materials to form heterostructures with desired synergetic effects, have demonstrated to be promising electrocatalysts for boosting the performance of sustainable energy conversion and storage devices. Nevertheless, the reaction kinetics, and in particular, the functional mechanisms of the 2D superlattice-based catalysts yet remain ambiguous. In this review, based on the recent progress of 2D superlattice materials in electrocatalysis applications, the rational design and fabrication of 2D superlattices are first summarized and the application of 2D superlattices in electrocatalysis is then specifically discussed. Finally, perspectives on the current challenges and the strategies for the future design of 2D superlattice materials are outlined. This review attempts to establish an intrinsic correlation between the 2D superlattice heterostructures and the catalytic properties, so as to provide some insights into developing high-performance electrocatalysts for next-generation sustainable energy conversion and storage.

Abstract
Molybdenum trioxide has served as a promising cathode material of rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs), because of its rich valence states and high theoretical capacity; yet, it still suffers from sluggish (de)intercalation kinetics and inreversible structure change for highly polarized Mg2+ in the interlayer and intralayer of structure. Herein, F- substitutional and H+ interstitial doping is proposed for α-MoO3 materials (denoted HMoOF) by the intralayer/interlayer engineering strategy to boost the performance of RMBs. F- substitutional doping generates molybdenum vacancies along the Mo-O-□ or Mo-F-□ configurations (where □ represents the cationic vacancy) for unlocking the inactive basal plane of the layered crystal structure, and it further accelerates Mg2+ diffusion along the b-axis. Interstitial-doped H+ can expand interlayer spacing for reducing Mg2+ energy barrier along the ac plane and serve as a "pillar" to stabilize the interlayer structure. Moreover, anion and cation dual doping trigger shallow impurity levels (acceptors levels and donor levels), which helps to easily acquire the electrons from the valence band and donate the electrons to the conduction band. Consequently, the HMoOF electrode exhibits a high reversible capacity (241 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1), an excellent rate capability (137.4 mAh g-1 at 2 A g-1), and a long cycling stability (capacity retention of 98% after 800 cycles at 1 A g-1) in RMBs. This work affords meaningful insights in layered materials for developing high-kinetics and long-life RMBs.

Engineering multifunctional superstructure cathodes to conquer the critical issue of sluggish kinetics and large volume changes associated with divalent Zn-ion intercalation reactions is highly desirable for boosting practical Zn-ion battery applications. Herein, it is demonstrated that a MoS2/C19H42N+ (CTAB) superstructure can be rationally designed as a stable and high-rate cathode. Incorporation of soft organic CTAB into a rigid MoS2 host forming the superlattice structure not only effectively initiates and smooths Zn2+ transport paths by significantly expanding the MoS2 interlayer spacing (1.0 nm) but also endows structural stability to accommodate Zn2+ storage with expansion along the MoS2 in-plane, while synchronous shrinkage along the superlattice interlayer achieves volume self-regulation of the whole cathode, as evidenced by in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction and substantial ex situ characterizations. Consequently, the optimized superlattice cathode delivers high-rate performance, long-term cycling stability (∼92.8% capacity retention at 10 A g-1 after 2100 cycles), and favorable flexibility in a pouch cell. Moreover, a decent areal capacity (0.87 mAh cm-2) is achieved even after a 10-fold increase of loading mass (∼11.5 mg cm-2), which is of great significance for practical applications. This work highlights the design of multifunctional superlattice electrodes for high-performance aqueous batteries.

Abstract
Long-term stable secondary batteries are highly required. Here, we report a unique microcapsule encapsulated with metal organic frameworks (MOFs)-derived Co3O4 nanocages for a Li-S battery, which displays good lithium-storage properties. ZIF-67 dodecahedra are prepared at room temperature then converted to porous Co3O4 nanocages, which are infilled into microcapsules through a microfluidic technique. After loading sulfur, the Co3O4/S-infilled microcapsules are obtained, which display a specific capacity of 935 mAh g-1 after 200 cycles at 0.5C in Li-S batteries. A Coulombic efficiency of about 100% is achieved. The constructed Li-S battery possesses a high rate-performance during three rounds of cycling. Moreover, stable performance is verified under both high and low temperatures of 50 °C and -10 °C. Density functional theory calculations show that the Co3O4 dodecahedra display large binding energies with polysulfides, which are able to suppress shuttle effect of polysulfides and enable a stable electrochemical performance.

Abstract
A post-lithium battery era is envisaged, and it is urgent to find new and sustainable systems for energy storage. Multivalent metals, such as magnesium, are very promising to replace lithium, but the low mobility of magnesium ion and the lack of suitable electrolytes are serious concerns. This review mainly discusses the advantages and shortcomings of the new rechargeable magnesium batteries, the future directions and the possibility of using solid electrolytes. Special emphasis is put on the diversity of structures, and on the theoretical calculations about voltage and structures. A critical issue is to select the combination of the positive and negative electrode materials to achieve an optimum battery voltage. The theoretical calculations of the structure, intercalation voltage and diffusion path can be very useful for evaluating the materials and for comparison with the experimental results of the magnesium batteries which are not hassle-free.

Abstract
Developing high-performance cathode materials for magnesium (Mg) batteries is of great significance. Here, a novel rose-with-thorn ternary MoS2@C@polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposite composed of carbon and PANI nanoneedles co-coated on rose-like MoS2 is developed. The conductive PANI needles on the surface of MoS2 improve the conductivity, and the inner MoS2 is wrapped by a carbon layer which is beneficial for the aniline coating. The MoS2@C@PANI-based Mg battery cathode displays a good capacity of 114 mA h g-1 after 100 cycles, and a recoverable rate-performance after repeated measurements. In addition, a stable capacity of 105 mA h g-1 when cycled at a low temperature of -5 °C is also achieved, indicating good potential for applications.

Abstract
Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) possesses great potential for application as cathode materials for aqueous zinc-ion batteries due to abundant valences of vanadium. Unfortunately, the inferior electronic conductivity and confined interlayer spacing of pristine V2O5 are not able to support fast Zn2+ diffusion kinetics, leading to significant capacity degradation, the dissolution of active species, and unsatisfactory cycling life. Herein, Zn2+ (de)intercalation kinetics is improved by the design of in situ polyaniline (PANI)-intercalated V2O5. The intercalated PANI can not only improve the conductivity and structural stability of V2O5 but also efficiently expand its interlayer spacing (1.41 nm), offering more channels for facile Zn2+ diffusion. Benefiting from these virtues, a high specific capacity of 356 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 is achieved for the PANI-intercalated V2O5 (PVO) cathode as well as a superior cycling performance (96.3% capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 5 A g-1) in an aqueous electrolyte. Furthermore, the Zn2+ storage in PVO is mainly dominated by the capacitive contribution. This work suggests that intercalating PANI in V2O5 may aid in the future development of advanced cathodes for other multivalent metal ion batteries.
