Abstract
The poor cycling stability and rate performance of transition metal selenides (TMSs) are caused by their intrinsic low conductivity and poor structural stability, which hinders their application in potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). To address this issue, encapsulating TMSs within carbon nanoshells is considered a viable strategy. However, due to the lack and uncontrollability of internal void space, this structure cannot effectively mitigate the volume expansion induced by large K+, resulting in unsatisfactory electrochemical performance. Herein, peanut-shaped FeSe2@carbon yolk-shell capsules are prepared by modulation of the internal space. The active FeSe2 is encapsulated within a robust carbon shell and an optimal void space is retained between them. The outer carbon shell promotes electronic conductivity and avoids FeSe2 aggregation, while the internal void mitigates volume expansion and effectively ensures the structural integrity of the electrode. Consequently, the FeSe2@carbon anode demonstrates exceptional rate performance (242 mAh g-1 at 10 A g-1) and long cycling stability (350 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles at 1 A g-1). Furthermore, the effect of internal space modulation on electrochemical properties is elucidated. Meanwhile, ex situ characterizations elucidate the K+ storage mechanism. This work provides effective guidance for the design and the internal space modulation of advanced TMSs yolk-shell structures.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 667:303-311.

Abstract
Metal selenides have emerged as promising Na-storage anode materials owing to their substantial theoretical capacity and high cost-effectiveness. However, the application of metal selenides is hindered by inferior electronic conductivity, huge volume variation, and sluggish kinetics of ionic migration. In response to these challenges, herein, a hierarchical hollow tube consisting of FeSe2 nanosheets and Se quantum dots anchored within a carbon skeleton (HT-FeSe2/Se/C) is strategically engineered and synthesized. The most remarkable feature of HT-FeSe2/Se/C is the introduction of Se quantum dots, which could lead to high electron density near the Fermi level and significantly enhance the overall charge transfer capability of the electrode. Moreover, the distinctive hollow tubular structure enveloped by the carbon skeleton endows the HT-FeSe2/Se/C anode with robust structural stability and fast surface-controlled Na-storage kinetics. Consequently, the as-synthesized HT-FeSe2/Se/C demonstrates a reversible capacity of 253.5 mAh/g at a current density of 5 A/g and a high specific capacity of 343.9 mAh/g at 1 A/g after 100 cycles in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Furthermore, a full cell is assembled with HT-FeSe2/Se/C as the anode, and a vanadium-based cathode (Na3V2(PO4)2O2F), showcasing a high specific capacity of 118.1 mAh/g at 2 A/g. The excellent performance of HT-FeSe2/Se/C may hint at future material design strategies and advance the development and application of SIBs.

Abstract
The increasing demand for graphite and the higher lithium content than environment abundance make the recycling of anode in spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) also become an inevitable trend. This work proposes a simple pathway to convert the retired graphite to high-performance expanded graphite (EG) under mild conditions. After the oxidation and intercalation by FeCl3 for the retired graphite, H2O2 molecules are more likely to penetrate into the extended layers. And the gas phase diffusion caused by the produced O2 from the redox reaction between FeCl3 and H2O2 further promotes lattice expansion of interlayers (0.535 nm), which is beneficial to the stripping of graphene oxide (GO) with fewer layers. The EG exhibits excellent electrochemical performances in both LIBs and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). It delivers 331.5 mAh g-1 at 3C (1C = 372 mA g-1) in LIBs, while it achieves 176.8 mAh g-1 at 3C (1C = 120 mA g-1) in SIBs. Then the capacity retains 753.6 (LIBs) and 201.6 (SIBs) mAh g-1 after a long-term cycling of 500 times at 1C, respectively. The full cells with the EG electrodes after prelithium/presodiation also show excellent cycle stability. Thus, this work offers another referable strategy for the recycling of waste graphite in spent LIBs.

Abstract
We developed a magnesium/sodium (Mg/Na) hybrid battery using a hierarchical disk-whisker FeSe2 architecture (HD-FeSe2) as the cathode material and a modified dual-ion electrolyte. The polarizable Se2- anion reduced the Mg2+ migration barrier, and the 3D configuration possessed a large surface area, which facilitated both Mg2+/Na+ cation diffusion and electron transport. The dual-ion salts with NaTFSI in ether reduced the Mg plating/stripping overvoltage in a symmetric cell. The hybrid battery exhibited an energy density of 260.9 Wh kg-1 and a power density of 600.8 W kg-1 at 0.2 A g-1. It showed a capacity retention of 154 mAh g-1 and a Coulombic efficiency of over 99.5% under 1.0 A g-1 after 800 long cycles. The battery also displayed outstanding temperature tolerance. The findings of 3D architecture as cathode material and hybrid electrolyte provide a pathway to design a highly reliable Mg/Na hybrid battery.

Abstract
Transition metal selenides are considered as promising anode materials for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) due to their high theoretical capacities. However, their applications are limited by low conductivity and large volume expansion. Herein, sugar-gourd-shaped carbon nanofibers embedded with heterostructured ZnCo-Se nanocages are prepared via a facile template-engaged method combined with electrospinning and selenization process. In this hierarchical ZnCo-Se@NC/CNF, abundant phase boundaries of CoSe2/ZnSe heterostructure can promote interfacial electron transfer and chemical reactivity. The interior porous ZnCo-Se@NC nanocage structure relieves volume expansion and maintains structural integrity during K+ intercalation and deintercalation. The exterior spinning carbon nanofibers connect the granular nanocages in series, which prevents the agglomeration, shortens the electron transport distance and enhances the reaction kinetics. As a self-supporting anode material, ZnCo-Se@NC/CNF delivers a high capacity (362 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 after 100 cycles) with long-term stability (95.9% capacity retention after 1000 cycles) and shows superior reaction kinetics with high-rate K-storage. Energy level analysis and DFT calculations illustrate heterostructure facilitates the adsorption of K+ and interfacial electron transfer. The K+ storage mechanism is revealed by ex situ XRD and EIS analyses. This work opens a novel avenue in designing high-performance heterostructured anode materials with ingenious structure for PIBs.

Abstract
This study portrays a facile wet-chemical synthesis of FeSe2/TiO2 nanocomposites for the first time for advanced asymmetric supercapacitor (SC) energy storage applications. Two different composites were prepared with varying ratios of TiO2 (90 and 60%, symbolized as KT-1 and KT-2) and their electrochemical properties were investigated to obtain an optimized performance. The electrochemical properties showed excellent energy storage performance owing to faradaic redox reactions from Fe2+/Fe3+ while TiO2 due to Ti3+/Ti4+ with high reversibility. Three-electrode designs in aqueous solutions showed a superlative capacitive performance, with KT-2 performing better (high capacitance and fastest charge kinetics). The superior capacitive performance drew our attention to further employing the KT-2 as a positive electrode to fabricate an asymmetric faradaic SC (KT-2//AC), exceeding exceptional energy storage performance after applying a wider voltage of 2.3 V in an aqueous solution. The constructed KT-2/AC faradaic SCs significantly improved electrochemical parameters such as capacitance of 95 F g-1, specific energy (69.79 Wh kg-1), and specific power delivery of 11529 W kg-1. Additionally, extremely outstanding durability was maintained after long-term cycling and rate performance. These fascinating findings manifest the promising feature of iron-based selenide nanocomposites, which can be effective electrode materials for next-generation high-performance SCs.

Abstract
The powerful and rapid development of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in secondary batteries field makes lithium resources in short supply, leading to rising battery costs. Under the circumstances, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) with low cost, inexhaustible sodium reserves, and analogous work principle to LIBs, have evolved as one of the most anticipated candidates for large-scale energy storage devices. Thereinto, the applicable electrode is a core element for the smooth development of SIBs. Among various anode materials, metal selenides (MSex ) with relatively high theoretical capacity and unique structures have aroused extensive interest. Regrettably, MSex suffers from large volume expansion and unwished side reactions, which result in poor electrochemistry performance. Thus, strategies such as carbon modification, structural design, voltage control as well as electrolyte and binder optimization are adopted to alleviate these issues. In this review, the synthesis methods and main reaction mechanisms of MSex are systematically summarized. Meanwhile, the major challenges of MSex and the corresponding available strategies are proposed. Furthermore, the recent research progress on layered and nonlayered MSex for application in SIBs is presented and discussed in detail. Finally, the future development focuses of MSex in the field of rechargeable ion batteries are highlighted.

Abstract
Carbon-coated metal chalcogenide composites have been demonstrated as one type of promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, combining carbon materials with micronanoparticles of metal chalcogenide always involve complicated processes, such as polymer coating, carbonization, and sulfidation/selenization. To address this issue, herein, we reported a series of carbon-coated FexSey@CN (FexSey = FeSe2, Fe3Se4, Fe7Se8) composites prepared via the thermodynamic transformation of a crystalline organic hybrid iron selenide [Fe(phen)2](Se4) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). By pyrolyzing the bulk crystals of [Fe(phen)2](Se4) at different temperatures, FexSey microrods were formed in situ, where the nitrogen-doped carbon layers were coated on the surface of the microrods. Moreover, all the as-prepared FexSey@CN composites exhibited excellent sodium-ion storage capabilities as anode materials in SIBs. This work proves that crystalline organic hybrid metal chalcogenides can be used as a novel material system for the in situ formation of carbon-coated metal chalcogenide composites, which could have great potential in the application of electrochemical energy storage.

Abstract
The development of nanomaterials and their related electrochemical energy storage (EES) devices can provide solutions for improving the performance and development of existing EES systems owing to their high electronic conductivity and ion transport and abundant embeddable sites. Recent progress has demonstrated that metal selenides are attracting increasing attention in the field of EES because of their unique structures, high theoretical capacities, rich element resources, and high conductivity. However, there are still many challenges in their application in EES, and thus the use of nanoscale metal selenide materials in commercial devices is limited. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the nanostructured design of metal selenides (e.g., zero-, one-, two-, and three-dimensional, and self-supported structures) and present their advantages in terms of EES performance. Moreover, some remarks on the potential challenges and research prospects of nanostructured metal selenides in the field of EES are presented.

Abstract
This is the first report of molybdenum carbide-based electrocatalyst for sulfur-based sodium-metal batteries. MoC/Mo2 C is in situ grown on nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes in parallel with formation of extensive nanoporosity. Sulfur impregnation (50 wt% S) results in unique triphasic architecture termed molybdenum carbide-porous carbon nanotubes host (MoC/Mo2 C@PCNT-S). Quasi-solid-state phase transformation to Na2 S is promoted in carbonate electrolyte, with in situ time-resolved Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and optical analyses demonstrating minimal soluble polysulfides. MoC/Mo2 C@PCNT-S cathodes deliver among the most promising rate performance characteristics in the literature, achieving 987 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 , 818 mAh g-1 at 3 A g-1 , and 621 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1 . The cells deliver superior cycling stability, retaining 650 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles at 1.5 A g-1 , corresponding to 0.028% capacity decay per cycle. High mass loading cathodes (64 wt% S, 12.7 mg cm-2 ) also show cycling stability. Density functional theory demonstrates that formation energy of Na2 Sx (1 ≤ x ≤ 4) on surface of MoC/Mo2 C is significantly lowered compared to analogous redox in liquid. Strong binding of Na2 Sx (1 ≤ x ≤ 4) on MoC/Mo2 C surfaces results from charge transfer between the sulfur and Mo sites on carbides' surface.

Abstract
Iron-based anode materials, such as Fe2O3 and FeSe2 have attracted widespread attention for lithium-ion batteries due to their high capacities. However, the capacity decays seriously because of poor conductivity and severe volume expansion. Designing nanostructures combined with carbon are effective means to improve cycling stability. In this work, ultra-small Fe2O3 nanoparticles loaded on a carbon framework were synthesized through a one-step thermal decomposition of the commercial C15H21FeO6 [Iron (III) acetylacetonate], which could be served as the source of Fe, O, and C. As an anode material, the Fe2O3@C anode delivers a specific capacity of 747.8 mAh g−1 after 200 cycles at 200 mA g−1 and 577.8 mAh g−1 after 365 cycles at 500 mA g−1. When selenium powder was introduced into the reaction system, the FeSe2 nano-rods encapsulated in the carbon shell were obtained, which also displayed a relatively good performance in lithium storage capacity (852 mAh g−1 after 150 cycles under the current density of 100 mA·g−1). This study may provide an alternative way to prepare other carbon-composited metal compounds, such as FeNx@C, FePx@C, and FeSx@C, and found their applications in the field of electrochemistry.

Abstract
Suitable anode materials with high capacity and long cycling stability, especially capability at high current densities, are urgently needed to advance the development of potassium ion batteries (PIBs) and sodium ion batteries (SIBs). Herein, a porous Ni-doped FeSe2 /Fe3 Se4 heterojunction encapsulated in Se-doped carbon (NF11 S/C) is designed through selenization of MOFs precursor. The porous composite possesses enriched active sites and facilitates transport for both ion and electron. Ni-doping is adopted to enrich the lattice defects and active sites. The Se-C bond and carbon framework endow integrity of the composite and hamper aggregation of selenide nano-particles during potassiation/de-potassiation. The NF11 S/C exhibits exceptional rate performance and ultra-long cycling stability (177.3 mA h g-1 after 3050 cycles at 2 A g-1 for PIBs and 208.8 mA h g-1 after 2000 cycles at 8 A g-1 for SIBs). The potassiation/de-potassiation mechanism is investigated via ex-situ X-ray powder diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectrocopy and Raman analysis. PTCDA//NF11 S/C full cell stably cycles for 1200 cycles at 200 mA g-1 with a capacity of 103.7 mA h g-1 , indicating the high application potential of the electrode for highly stable rechargeable batteries.

Abstract
Inferior electrical conductivity and large volume variation are two disadvantages of metal selenides. In this work, we have designed a core-shell structure of FeSe2@C composite with low cost using facile hydrothermal method. The FeSe2particles as the 'core' and the carbon layer as the 'shell' displayed good synergistic effect that attributed to alleviate volume expansion of electrode and improving the electrical conductivity, which achieved the fast potassium storage. The core-shell structural FeSe2@C electrode achieved 286 mA h g-1at 1 A g-1over 1000 cycles with 99.8% coulombic efficiency and delivered excellent rate capacity with 273 mA h g-1at 2 A g-1, which was ascribed to dispersed FeSe2particles and the strong carbon shell coating. This work will provide the basis for the further development of the application of metal selenides in the field of flexible electrodes.

Abstract
Attracted by the rich earth abundance and low-cost advantages, alkali metal-ion (Na/K)-based energy storage devices have attracted wide interest as promising candidates for energy economizing in recent years. Unfortunately, the lack of suitable host materials with high capacity and long life span for alkali metal-ion storage has severely impeded their practical application in large-scale energy storage devices. Herein, we present a promising anode candidate composed of ultrasmall MoSe2 clusters embedded in a nitrogen-doped hollow carbon nanobowl substrate to form unique MoSe2-Carbon nanobowl particles (denoted as MoSe2⊂CNB). MoSe2⊂CNB demonstrates exceptional electrochemical properties for alkali metal-ion storage including sodium and potassium. In situ Raman spectroscopy and galvanostatic intermittent titration measurements reveal the possible reason for the high performance of MoSe2⊂CNB. Notably, the assembled potassium-ion hybrid capacitors could manifest an extraordinary energy density of 130.7 W h kg-1 at 0.2 A g-1, a high power density of 13,607 W kg-1, and an enviable cycle life after 6000 cycles, further reflecting the great developmental potential for energy storage devices in practical applications. This work provides a new method to design functional nanostructures for electrode materials to drive the development and application of possible energy storage devices.

Abstract
Thanks to their high conductivity and theoretical capacity, transition metal selenides have demanded significant research attention as prospective anodes for sodium-ion batteries. Nevertheless, their practical applications are hindered by finite cycle life and inferior rate performance because of large volume expansion, polyselenide dissolution, and sluggish dynamics. Herein, the nitrogen-doped carbon (NC)-coated FeSe2 nanoparticles encapsulated in NC nanoboxes (termed FeSe2@NDC NBs) are fabricated through the facile thermal selenization of polydopamine-wrapped Prussian blue precursors. In this composite, the existing nitrogen-doped dual carbon layer improves the intrinsic conductivity and structural integrity, while the unique porous yolk-shell architecture significantly mitigates the volume swelling during the sodium/desodium process. Moreover, the derived Fe-N-C bonds can effectively capture polyselenide, as well as promote Na+ transportation and good reversible conversion reaction. As expected, the FeSe2@NDC NBs deliver remarkable rate performance (374.9 mA h g-1 at 10.0 A g-1) and long-cycling stability (403.3 mA h g-1 over 2000 loops at 5.0 A g-1). When further coupled with a self-made Na3V2(PO4)3@C cathode in sodium-ion full cells, FeSe2@NDC NBs also exhibit considerably high and stable sodium-storage performance.

Abstract
Owing to the high specific capacities, high electrochemical activity, and various electronic properties, transition metal selenides are considered as promising anodes for lithium- and sodium-ion storage. However, poor electronic conductivity and huge volume expansion during cycling are still responsible for their restricted electrochemical performance. Herein, CoSe hollow polyhedron anchoring onto graphene (CoSe/G) is synthesized by self-assembly and subsequent selenization. In CoSe/G composites, the CoSe nanoparticles, obtained by in situ selenization of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in high temperature, are distributed among graphene sheets, realizing N element doping, developing robust heterostructures with a chemical bond. The unique architecture ensures the cohesion of the structure and endorses the reaction kinetics for metal ions, identified by in situ and ex situ testing techniques, and kinetics analysis. Thus, the CoSe/G anodes achieve excellent cycling performance (1259 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 after 300 cycles for lithium storage; 214 mAh g-1 at 2 A g-1 after 600 cycles for sodium storage) and rate capability (732 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1 for lithium storage; 290 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1 for sodium storage). The improved electrochemical performance for alkali-ion storage provides new insights for the construction of MOFs derivatives toward high-performance storage devices.

Abstract
Heterostructure construction is an efficient method for reinforcing K+ storage of transition metal selenides. The spontaneously developed internal electric fields give a strong boost to charge transport and significantly reduce the activation energy. Nevertheless, perfection of the interfacial region based on the energy level gradient and lattice matching degree is still a great challenge. Herein, rich vacancies and ultrafine CoSe2 -FeSe2 heterojunctions with semicoherent phase boundary are simultaneously obtained, which possess unique electronic structures and abundant active sites. When employed as anodes for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs), CoSe2 -FeSe2 @C composites display a reversible potassium storage of 401.1 mAh g-1 at 100 mA g-1 and even 275 mAh g-1 at 2 A g-1 . Theoretical calculation also reveals that the potassium-ion diffusion can be dramatically promoted by the controllable CoSe2 -FeSe2 heterojunction.

Abstract
The synthesis of nanomaterials, with characteristic dimensions of 1 to 100 nm, is a key component of nanotechnology. Vapor-phase synthesis of nanomaterials has numerous advantages such as high product purity, high-throughput continuous operation, and scalability that have made it the dominant approach for the commercial synthesis of nanomaterials. At the same time, this class of methods has great potential for expanded use in research and development. Here, we present a broad review of progress in vapor-phase nanomaterial synthesis. We describe physically-based vapor-phase synthesis methods including inert gas condensation, spark discharge generation, and pulsed laser ablation; plasma processing methods including thermal- and non-thermal plasma processing; and chemically-based vapor-phase synthesis methods including chemical vapor condensation, flame-based aerosol synthesis, spray pyrolysis, and laser pyrolysis. In addition, we summarize the nanomaterials produced by each method, along with representative applications, and describe the synthesis of the most important materials produced by each method in greater detail.

Abstract
Sodium- and potassium-ion batteries have attracted intensive attention recently as low-cost alternatives to lithium-ion batteries with naturally abundant resources. However, the large ionic radii of Na+ and K+ render their slow mobility, leading to sluggish diffusion in host materials. Herein, hierarchical FeSe2 microspheres assembled by closely packed nano/microrods are rationally designed and synthesized through a facile solvothermal method. Without carbonaceous material incorporation, the electrode delivers a reversible Na+ storage capacity of 559 mA h g-1 at a current rate of 0.1 A g-1 and a remarkable rate performance with a capacity of 525 mA h g-1 at 20 A g-1 . As for K+ storage, the FeSe2 anode delivers a high reversible capacity of 393 mA h g-1 at 0.4 A g-1 . Even at a high current rate of 5 A g-1 , a discharge capacity of 322 mA h g-1 can be achieved, which is among the best high-rate anodes for K+ storage. The excellent electrochemical performance can be attributed to the favorable morphological structure and the use of an ether-based electrolyte during cycling. Moreover, quantitative study suggests a strong pseudocapacitive contribution, which boosts fast kinetics and interfacial storage.

Abstract
Rechargeable alkali metal-ion batteries (AMIBs) are receiving significant attention owing to their high energy density and low weight. The performance of AMIBs is highly dependent on the electrode materials. It is, therefore, quite crucial to explore suitable electrode materials that can fulfil the future requirements of AMIBs. Herein, a hierarchical hybrid yolk-shell structure of carbon-coated iron selenide microcapsules (FeSe2 @C-3 MCs) is prepared via facile hydrothermal reaction, carbon-coating, HCl solution etching, and then selenization treatment. When used as the conversion-typed anode materials (CTAMs) for AMIBs, the yolk-shell FeSe2 @C-3 MCs show advantages. First, the interconnected external carbon shell improves the mechanical strength of electrodes and accelerates ionic migration and electron transmission. Second, the internal electroactive FeSe2 nanoparticles effectively decrease the extent of volume expansion and avoid pulverization when compared with micro-sized solid FeSe2 . Third, the yolk-shell structure provides sufficient inner void to ensure electrolyte infiltration and mobilize the surface and near-surface reactions of electroactive FeSe2 with alkali metal ions. Consequently, the designed yolk-shell FeSe2 @C-3 MCs demonstrate enhanced electrochemical performance in lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries, and potassium-ion batteries with high specific capacities, long cyclic stability, and outstanding rate capability, presenting potential application as universal anodes for AMIBs.

Abstract
Alkali metal ion beyond lithium based energy storage systems have recently attracted increasing attention due to their unique advantages of high natural abundance and low cost. Herein, we report the fabrication of P,N-codoped carbon mesoporous nanotubes (denoted as PNC-MeNTs) through a facile two-step strategy with MnO2 nanowires as a dual-function sacrificing template, where the in situ oxidative polymerization formation of pyrrole-aniline-phytic acid composite nanotubes and a subsequent carbonization treatment are involved. The PNC-MeNTs exhibit outstanding electrochemical performance for both Na+ and K+ storage, respectively, where high specific capacities of 287.2 mA h g-1 and 219.6 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 and remarkable cycling stability over 10 000 cycles at 10 A g-1 and 3000 cycles at 1 A g-1 can be achieved. More importantly, potassium-ion hybrid capacitors with a PNC-MeNT anode and an activated carbon cathode can deliver remarkable energy/power density of 175.1 W h kg-1/160.6 W kg-1, as well as a long cycling life. The possible origins and storage mechanisms are investigated with combined characterization methods including in situ Raman spectroscopy and a galvanostatic intermittent titration technique. This study may introduce a new avenue for designing carbonaceous electrode candidates for future high-performance energy storage devices.

Abstract
Transition-metal selenides have emerged as promising anode materials for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). Nevertheless, they suffer from volume expansion, polyselenide dissolution, and sluggish kinetics, which lead to inadequate conversion reaction toward sodium and poor reversibility during the desodiation process. Therefore, the transition-metal selenides are far from long cycling stability, outstanding rate performance, and high initial Coulombic efficiency, which are the major challenges for practical application in SIBs. Here, an efficient anode material including an FeSe2 core and N-doped carbon shell with inner void space as well as high conductivity is developed for outstanding rate performance and long cycle life SIBs. In the ingeniously designed FeSe2@NC microrods, the N-doped carbon shell can facilitate mass transport/electron transfer, protect the FeSe2 core from the electrolyte, and accommodate volume variation of FeSe2 with the help of the inner void of the core. Thus, the FeSe2@NC microrods can maintain strong structural integrity upon long cycling and ensure a good reversible conversion reaction of FeSe2 during the discharge/charge process. As a result, the as-prepared FeSe2@NC microrods exhibit excellent sodium storage performance and ultrahigh stability, achieving an excellent rate capability (411 mAh g-1 at 10.0 A g-1) and a long-term cycle performance (401.3 mAh g-1 after 2000 cycles at 5.0 A g-1).

Abstract
Engineering intriguing electrode with exceptional kinetics behaviors is imperative for boosting sodium storage systems. Herein, the uniform nanoframes are threaded by the interwoven carbon nanotube (CNT) conductive network to form an ingenious beads-on-a-string structured NiFePBA nanoframe/CNT (NFPB-NF/CNT) cathode and the corresponding derivative NiFeSe nanoframe/CNT (NFS-NF/CNT) anode. NFPB-NF/CNT exhibited remarkable cycling life along with outstanding rate capability and low voltage decay per cycle. The fast Na+ conduction and sufficient sodiation reaction is proved using Na+ diffusion models. Meanwhile, an exceptional sodium storage capacity and prolonged cycling life is achieved using binary NFS-NF/CNT anode at a high rate. In situ and ex situ investigations are used to reveal the sodium storage mechanisms and structural evolution process. Furthermore, a sodium-ion full battery based on the above electrodes shows stable performance accompanied by high energy conversion efficiency. The material design strategy provides a new solution for exploiting smart multicomponent composites toward advanced energy storage devices.

Abstract
Earth-abundant transition-metal selenides (TMSs) have aroused great interest towards their application in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Herein, we present Fe-based Prussian blue analogs (PBA) modified by graphene oxide as precursors to synthesize FeSe2 nanoparticles within a nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) matrix and graphene layer (FeSe2/NC@G). The bifunctional carbon wrapped FeSe2/NC@G shows excellent sodium-storage performance with a large reversible capacity of 331 mA h g-1 at 5.0 A g-1 and a high cyclability of 323 mA h g-1 at the current density of 2.0 A g-1 after 1000 cycles (82% capacity retention). Furthermore, full SIBs are also fabricated and exhibit superior capacities and stabilities. The remarkable electrochemical properties result from the formation of an Fe-O-C chemical bond in the composite with enhanced electronic/ionic diffusion kinetics and structural integrity. This study paves the way for the successful synthesis of novel nanostructural TMSs which can be utilized in energy storage system application.

Abstract
To address the growing energy demands of sustainable development, it is crucial to develop new materials that can improve the efficiency of energy storage systems. Hierarchically structured porous materials have shown their great potential for energy storage applications owing to their large accessible space, high surface area, low density, excellent accommodation capability with volume and thermal variation, variable chemical compositions and well controlled and interconnected hierarchical porosity at different length scales. Porous hierarchy benefits electron and ion transport, and mass diffusion and exchange. The electrochemical behavior of hierarchically structured porous materials varies with different pore parameters. Understanding their relationship can lead to the defined and accurate design of highly efficient hierarchically structured porous materials to enhance further their energy storage performance. In this review, we take the characteristic parameters of the hierarchical pores as the survey object to summarize the recent progress on hierarchically structured porous materials for energy storage. This is the first of this kind exclusively to survey the performance of hierarchically structured porous materials from different porous characteristics. For those who are not familiar with hierarchically structured porous materials, a series of very significant synthesis strategies of hierarchically structured porous materials are firstly and briefly reviewed. This will be beneficial for those who want to quickly obtain useful reference information about the synthesis strategies of new hierarchically structured porous materials to improve their performance in energy storage. The effect of different organizational, structural and geometric parameters of porous hierarchy on their electrochemical behavior is then deeply discussed. We outline the existing problems and development challenges of hierarchically structured porous materials that need to be addressed in renewable energy applications. We hope that this review can stimulate strong intuition into the design and application of new hierarchically structured porous materials in energy storage and other fields.

Abstract
Transition metal chalcogenides have received great attention as promising anode candidates for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the undesirable cyclic life and inferior rate capability still restrict their practical applications. The design of micro-nano hierarchitectures is considered as a possible strategy to facilitate the electrochemical reaction kinetics and strengthen the electrode structure stability upon repeated Na+ insertion/extraction. Herein, urchin-like Fe3 Se4 hierarchitectures are successfully prepared and developed as a novel anode material for SIBs. Impressively, the as-prepared urchin-like Fe3 Se4 can present an ultrahigh rate capacity of 200.2 mAh g-1 at 30 A g-1 and a prominent capacity retention of 99.9% over 1000 cycles at 1 A g-1 , meanwhile, a respectable initial coulombic efficiency of ≈100% is achieved. Through the conjunct study of in situ X-ray diffraction, ex situ X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy, as well as cyclic voltammetry curves, it is intriguing to reveal that the phase transformation from monoclinic to amorphous structure accompanied by the pseudocapacitive Na+ storage behavior accounts for the superior electrochemical performance. When paired with the Na3 V2 (PO4 )3 cathode materials, the assembled full cell enables high energy density and decent cyclic stability, demonstrating potential practical feasibility of the present urchin-like Fe3 Se4 anode.

Abstract
One-dimensional (1D) nanofibers constructed with structurally stable nano-architecture and highly conductive carbon components can be employed to develop enhanced anodic materials for lithium-ion batteries. However, achieving an intricate combination of well-designed 1D-nanostructural materials and conductive carbon components for excellent lithium-ion storage capacity is a key challenge. In this study, novel and unique tube-in-tube structured nanofibers consisting of hollow metal oxide (CoFe2O4) nanospheres covered with a graphitic carbon (GC) layer were feasibly and successfully synthesized. A facile pitch solution infiltration method was applied to provide electrical conductivity in the tube-in-tube structure. Generally, mesophase pitch with liquid characteristics uniformly infiltrates the porous nanocrystals and transforms into graphitic layers around metallic CoFe2 alloys during the reduction process. The oxidation process that follows produces the hollow CoFe2O4 nanosphere by the nanoscale Kirkendall effect and the GC layer by selective decomposition of amorphous carbon layers. Hollow CoFe2O4 nanospheres comprising tube-in-tube structured nanofibers and GC layers are formed by pitch-derived carbon; these have improved structural stability and electrical conductivity resulting in excellent cycling and characteristics. Tube-in-tube structured nanofibers consisting of hollow CoFe2O4@GC nanospheres showed excellent long-cycle performance (682 mA h g-1 for the 1400th cycle at a high current density of 3.0 A g-1) and excellent rate capability (355 mA h g-1) even at an extremely high current density of 50 A g-1.

Abstract
Among post-lithium ion technologies, magnesium-ion batteries (MIBs) are receiving great concern in recent years. However, MIBs are mainly restrained by the lack of cathode materials, which may accommodate the fast diffusion kinetics of Mg2+ ions. To overcome this problem, herein we attempt to synthesize a reduced graphene oxide (rGO) encapsulated tin oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles composites through an electrostatic-interaction-induced-self-assembly approach at low temperature. The surface modification of SnO2 via carbonaceous coating enhanced the electrical conductivity of final composites. The SnO2-rGO composites with different weight ratios of rGO and SnO2 are employed as cathode material in magnesium-ion batteries. Experimental results show that MIB exhibits a maximum specific capacity of 222 mAhg-1 at the current density of 20 mAg-1 with a good cycle life (capacity retention of 90%). Unlike Li-ion batteries, no SnO2 nanoparticles expansion is observed during electrochemical cycling in all-phenyl-complex (APC) magnesium electrolytes, which ultimately improves the capacity retention. Furthermore, ex-situ x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies are used to understand the magnesiation/de-magnesiation mechanisms. At the end, SnO2-rGO composites are tested for Mg2+/Li+ hybrid ion batteries and results reveal a specific capacity of 350 mAhg-1 at the current density of 20 mAg-1. However, hybrid ion battery exhibited sharp decay in capacity owing to volume expansion of SnO2 based cathodes. This work will provide a new insight for synthesis of electrode materials for energy storage devices.

Abstract
Highly efficient anode materials with novel compositions for Li-ion batteries are actively being researched. Multicomponent metal selenite is a promising candidate, capable of improving their electrochemical performance through the formation of metal oxide and selenide heterostructure nanocrystals during the first cycle. Here, the binary nickel-cobalt selenite derived from Ni-Co Prussian blue analogs (PBA) is chosen as the first target material: the Ni-Co PBA are selenized and partially oxidized in sequence, yielding (NiCo)SeO3 phase with a small amount of metal selenate. The conversion mechanism of (NiCo)SeO3 for Li-ion storage is studied by cyclic voltammetry, in situ X-ray diffraction, ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, in situ electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and ex situ transmission electron microscopy. The reversible reaction mechanism of (NiCo)SeO3 with the Li ions is described by the reaction: NiO + CoO + xSeO2 + (1 - x)Se + (4x + 6)Li+ + (4x + 6)e- ↔ Ni + Co + (2x + 2)Li2 O + Li2 Se. To enhance electrochemical properties, polydopamine-derived carbon is uniformly coated on (NiCo)SeO3 , resulting in excellent cycling and rate performances for Li-ion storage. The discharge capacity of C-coated (NiCo)SeO3 is 680 mAh g-1 for the 1500th cycle when cycled at a current density of 5 A g-1 .

Abstract
The increasing demand for energy storage has motivated the search for highly efficient electrode materials for use in rechargeable batteries with enhanced energy density and longer cycle life. One of the most promising strategies for achieving improved battery performance is altering the architecture of nanostructured materials employed as electrode materials in the energy storage field. Among numerous synthetic methods suggested for the fabrication of nanostructured materials, aerosol spray techniques such as spray pyrolysis, spray drying, and flame spray pyrolysis are reliable, as they are facile, cost-effective, and continuous processes that enable the synthesis of nanostructured electrode materials with desired morphologies and compositions with controlled stoichiometry. The post-treatment of spray-processed powders enables the fabrication of oxide, sulfide, and selenide nanostructures hybridized with carbonaceous materials including amorphous carbon, reduced graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, etc. In this article, recent progress in the synthesis of nanostructured electrode materials by spray processes and their general formation mechanisms are discussed in detail. A brief introduction to the working principles of each spray process is given first, and synthetic strategies for the design of electrode materials for lithium-ion, sodium-ion, lithium-sulfur, lithium-selenium, and lithium-oxygen batteries are discussed along with some examples. This analysis sheds light on the synthesis of nanostructured materials by spray processes and paves the way toward the design of other novel and advanced nanostructured materials for high performance electrodes in rechargeable batteries of the future.

Abstract
Graphene is a 2D sheet of sp2 bonded carbon atoms and tends to aggregate together, due to the strong π-π stacking and van der Waals attraction between different layers. Its unique properties such as a high specific surface area and a fast mass transport rate are severely blocked. To address these issues, various kinds of 2D holey graphene and 3D porous graphene are either self-assembled from graphene layers or fabricated using graphene related materials such as graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide. Porous graphene not only possesses unique pore structures, but also introduces abundant exposed edges and accelerates mass transfer. The properties and applications of these porous graphenes and their composites/hybrids have been extensively studied in recent years. Herein, recent progress and achievements in synthesis and functionalization of various 2D holey graphene and 3D porous graphene are reviewed. Of special interest, electrochemical applications of porous graphene and its hybrids in the fields of electrochemical sensing, electrocatalysis, and electrochemical energy storage, are highlighted. As the closing remarks, the challenges and opportunities for the future research of porous graphene and its composites are discussed and outlined.

Abstract
Well-designed porous structured bimetallic ZnSe/CoSe₂/carbon composite nanofibers with uniformly distributed pores were prepared as anodes for sodium-ion batteries by electrospinning and subsequent simple heat-treatment processes. Size-controlled polystyrene (PS) nanobeads in the electrospinning solution played a key role in the formation and uniform distribution of pores in the nanofiber structure, after the removal of selected PS nanobeads during the heat-treatment process. The porous ZnSe/CoSe₂/C composite nanofibers were able to release severe mechanical stress/strain during discharge-charge cycles, introduce larger contact area between the active materials and the electrolyte, and provide more active sites during cycling. The discharge capacity of porous ZnSe/CoSe2/C composite nanofibers at the 10,000th cycle was 297 mA h g-1, and the capacity retention measured from the second cycle was 81%. The final rate capacities of porous ZnSe/CoSe2/C composite nanofibers were 438, 377, 367, 348, 335, 323, and 303 mA h g-1 at current densities of 0.1, 0.5, 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 A g-1, respectively. At the higher current densities of 10, 20, and 30 A g-1, the final rate capacities were 310, 222, and 141 mA h g-1, respectively.
