Abstract
Understanding the growth modes of 2D transition-metal oxides through direct observation is of vital importance to tailor these materials to desired structures. Here, we demonstrate thermolysis-driven growth of 2D V2O5 nanostructures via in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Various growth stages in the formation of 2D V2O5 nanostructures through thermal decomposition of a single solid-state NH4VO3 precursor are unveiled during the in situ TEM heating. Growth of orthorhombic V2O5 2D nanosheets and 1D nanobelts is observed in real time. The associated temperature ranges in thermolysis-driven growth of V2O5 nanostructures are optimized through in situ and ex situ heating. Also, the phase transformation of V2O5 to VO2 was revealed in real time by in situ TEM heating. The in situ thermolysis results were reproduced using ex situ heating, which offers opportunities for upscaling the growth of vanadium oxide-based materials. Our findings offer effective, general, and simple pathways to produce versatile 2D V2O5 nanostructures for a range of battery applications.

Abstract
Compared with lithium, magnesium shows a low propensity toward dendritic deposition due to its low surface self-diffusion barriers. However, due to the intrinsic surface roughness of the metal and the nonuniformity of the formed solid-electrolyte interphase, uneven deposition of Mg still happens, which brings about high local current density and continuous proliferation of the interphase, greatly exacerbating the passivation. Unfortunately, little attention has been paid to the deposition uniformity and the interfacial stability of Mg metal anodes, which result in a potential penalty. Herein, we modify the electrolyte with cathodically stable cations to guide smooth deposition via an electrostatic shielding strategy. The cations adsorbed on the initial protuberances effectively homogenize the charge flux by repulsing the incoming Mg2+ away from the tips. Importantly, we prove the lateral growth can benefit the interphase stability and electrochemical reversibility.

Abstract
A facile two-step strategy involving a solvothermal method and a subsequent calcining treatment was successfully developed for the preparation of MoV2O8 nanorods in the absence of any surfactants. Acetic acid was chosen as the solvent to provide an acidic environment. The as-synthesized MoV2O8 nanorods were evaluated as an anode material in lithium ion batteries, which showed excellent lithium storage performance in terms of its specific capacity, rate performance, and cycling stability. It could deliver a specific capacity of over 1325 mA h g(-1) after 50 cycles at 0.2 A g(-1), which is much higher than that of bulk MoV2O8 (617 mA h g(-1)). When the cell was cycled at a current density as high as 10.0 A g(-1), it still maintained a high specific capacity of around 570 mA h g(-1). The phase transformation, intercalation-deintercalation and partial redox processes are responsible for the lithium storage mechanism of MoV2O8 based on ex situ X-ray diffraction, X-ray photo electron spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy studies, highlighting a new lithium storage mechanism for ternary metal oxides.

Abstract
Al-inserted vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) nanofibers (Al-VNF) are synthesized by simple electrospinning technique. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns confirm the formation of phase-pure structure. Elemental mapping and XPS studies are used to confirm chemical insertion of Al in VNF. Surface morphological features of as-spun and sintered fibers with Al-insertion are investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). Electrochemical Li-insertion behavior of Al-VNFs are explored as cathode in half-cell configuration (vs. Li) using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge studies. Al-VNF (Al0.5V2O5) shows an initial discharge capacity of ∼250 mA h g(-1) and improved capacity retention of >60% after 50 cycles at 0.1 C rate, whereas native VNF showed only ∼40% capacity retention at room temperature. Enhanced high current rate and elevated temperature performance of Al-VNF (Al1.0V2O5) is observed with improved capacity retention (∼70%) characteristics. Improved performance of Al-inserted VNF is mainly attributed to the retention of fibrous morphology, apart from structural stabilization during electrochemical cycling.
