Abstract
The development of sodium-ion battery (SIB) anodes is still hindered by their rapid capacity decay and poor rate capabilities. Although there have been some new materials that can be used to fabricate stable anodes, SIBs are still far from wide applications. Strategies like nanostructure construction and material modification have been used to prepare more robust SIB anodes. Among all the design strategies, the hollow structure design is a promising method in the development of advanced anode materials. In the past decade, research efforts have been devoted to modifying the synthetic route, the type of templates, and the interior structure of hollow structures with high capacity and stability. A brief introduction is made to the main material systems and classifications of hollow structural materials first. Then different morphologies of hollow structural materials for SIB anodes from the latest reports are discussed, including nanoboxes, nanospheres, yolk shells, nanotubes, and other more complex shapes. The most used templates for the synthesis of hollow structrual materials are covered and the perspectives are highlighted at the end. This review offers a comprehensive discussion of the synthesis of hollow structural materials for SIB anodes, which could be potentially of use to research areas involving hollow materials design for batteries.

Abstract
Rechargeable sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have been considered as promising energy storage devices owing to the similar "rocking chair" working mechanism as lithium-ion batteries and abundant and low-cost sodium resource. However, the large ionic radius of the Na-ion (1.07 Å) brings a key scientific challenge, restricting the development of electrode materials for SIBs, and the infeasibility of graphite and silicon in reversible Na-ion storage further promotes the investigation of advanced anode materials. Currently, the key issues facing anode materials include sluggish electrochemical kinetics and a large volume expansion. Despite these challenges, substantial conceptual and experimental progress has been made in the past. Herein, we present a brief review of the recent development of intercalation, conversion, alloying, conversion-alloying, and organic anode materials for SIBs. Starting from the historical research progress of anode electrodes, the detailed Na-ion storage mechanism is analyzed. Various optimization strategies to improve the electrochemical properties of anodes are summarized, including phase state adjustment, defect introduction, molecular engineering, nanostructure design, composite construction, heterostructure synthesis, and heteroatom doping. Furthermore, the associated merits and drawbacks of each class of material are outlined, and the challenges and possible future directions for high-performance anode materials are discussed.

Abstract
Mo-based heterostructures offer a new strategy to improve the electronics/ion transport and diffusion kinetics of the anode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). MoO2/MoS2 hollow nanospheres have been successfully designed via in-situ ion exchange technology with the spherical coordination compound Mo-glycerates (MoG). The structural evolution processes of pure MoO2, MoO2/MoS2, and pure MoS2 materials have been investigated, illustrating that the structureofthenanospherecan be maintained by introducing the S-Mo-S bond. Based on the high conductivity of MoO2, the layered structure of MoS2 and the synergistic effect between components, as-obtained MoO2/MoS2 hollow nanospheres display enhanced electrochemical kinetic behaviors for SIBs. The MoO2/MoS2 hollow nanospheres achieve a rate performance with 72% capacity retention at a current of 3200 mA g-1 compared to 100 mA g-1. The capacity can be restored to the initial capacity after a current returns to 100 mA g-1, while the capacity fading of pure MoS2 is up to 24%. Moreover, the MoO2/MoS2 hollow nanospheres also exhibit cycling stability, maintaining a stable capacity of 455.4 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles at a current of 100 mA g-1. In this work, the design strategy for the hollow composite structure provides insight into the preparation of energy storage materials.

Abstract
At present, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have received widespread attention as substantial energy storage devices; thus, their electrochemical performances must be continuously researched and improved. In this paper, we demonstrate a simple self-template solvothermal method combined with annealing for the synthesis of NiFe2O4 yolk-shell (NFO-YS) and NiFe2O4 solid (NFO-S) nanospheres by controlling the heating rate and coating them with a carbon layer on the surface via high-temperature carbonization of resorcinol and formaldehyde resin. Among them, NFO-YS@C has an obvious yolk-shell structure, with a core-shell spacing of about 60 nm, and the thicknesses of the NiFe2O4 shell and carbon shell are approximately 15 and 30 nm, respectively. The yolk-shell structure can alleviate volume changes and shorten the ion/electron diffusion path, while the carbon shell can improve conductivity. Therefore, NFO-YS@C nanospheres as the anode materials of LIBs show a high initial capacity of 1087.1 mA h g-1 at 100 mA g-1, and the capacity of NFO-YS@C nanospheres impressively remains at 1023.5 mA h g-1 after 200 cycles at 200 mA g-1. The electrochemical performance of NFO-YS@C is significantly beyond NFO-S@C, which proves that the carbon coating and yolk-shell structure have good stability and excellent electron transport ability.

Abstract
Non-enzymatic biosensors based on mixed transition metal oxides are deemed as the most promising devices due to their high sensitivity, selectivity, wide concentration range, low detection limits, and excellent recyclability. Spinel NiCo2O4 mixed oxides have drawn considerable attention recently due to their outstanding advantages including large specific surface area, high permeability, short electron, and ion diffusion pathways. Because of the rapid development of non-enzyme biosensors, the current state of methods for synthesis of pure and composite/hybrid NiCo2O4 materials and their subsequent electrochemical biosensing applications are systematically and comprehensively reviewed herein. Comparative analysis reveals better electrochemical sensing of bioanalytes by one-dimensional and two-dimensional NiCo2O4 nano-/microstructures than other morphologies. Better biosensing efficiency of NiCo2O4 as compared to corresponding individual metal oxides, viz. NiO and Co3O4, is attributed to the close intrinsic-state redox couples of Ni3+/Ni2+ (0.58 V/0.49 V) and Co3+/Co2+ (0.53 V/0.51 V). Biosensing performance of NiCo2O4 is also significantly improved by making the composites of NiCo2O4 with conducting carbonaceous materials like graphene, reduced graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes (single and multi-walled), carbon nanofibers; conducting polymers like polypyrrole (PPy), polyaniline (PANI); metal oxides NiO, Co3O4, SnO2, MnO2; and metals like Au, Pd, etc. Various factors affecting the morphologies and biosensing parameters of the nano-/micro-structured NiCo2O4 are also highlighted. Finally, some drawbacks and future perspectives related to this promising field are outlined.

Abstract
Carbon-coated nickel cobaltate on nickel foam (C@NCO@NF) with stable pseudocapacitive lithium storage capacity was prepared via a two-step strategy. NiCo hydroxide was initially grown on Ni foam via electrodeposition. Subsequent glucose soaking and annealing converted the intermediate into C@NCO@NF. Carbon coating could significantly improve the cycling stability and rate performance of the binder-free anode. The C@NCO@NF electrode could stably deliver a reversible capacity of 513 mAh · g-1 after 500 cycles at a current density of 500 mA · g-1. It could even stably cycle at a high current density of 5000 mA · g-1 for 3000 cycles, with a reversible capacity of 115 mAh · g-1. Kinetic analysis revealed that surface-controlled pseudocapacitance plays a dominant role in the lithium ion storage. Improved electrochemical performance is attributed to the synergetic effect of pseudocapacitance and carbon coating.

Abstract
MoS2 has attracted attention as a promising hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalyst and a supercapacitor electrode material. However, its catalytic activity and capacitive performance are still hindered by its aggregation and poor intrinsic conductivity. Here, hollow rGO sphere-supported ultrathin MoS2 nanosheet arrays (h-rGO@MoS2) are constructed via a dual-template approach and employed as bifunctional HER catalyst and supercapacitor electrode material. Because of the expanded interlayer spacing in MoS2 nanosheets and more exposed electroactive S-Mo-S edges, the constructed h-rGO@MoS2 architectures exhibit enhanced HER performance. Furthermore, benefiting from the synergistic effect of the improved conductivity and boosted specific surface areas (144.9 m2 g-1, ca. 4.6-times that of pristine MoS2), the h-rGO@MoS2 architecture shows a high specific capacitance (238 F g-1 at a current density of 0.5 A g-1), excellent rate capacitance, and remarkable cycle stability. Our synthesis method may be extended to construct other vertically aligned hollow architectures, which may serve both as efficient HER catalysts and supercapacitor electrodes.

Abstract
This work reports the template-free fabrication of mesoporous Al2 O3 nanospheres with greatly enhanced textural characteristics through a newly developed post-synthesis "water-ethanol" treatment of aluminium glycerate nanospheres followed by high temperature calcination. The proposed "water-ethanol" treatment is highly advantageous as the resulting mesoporous Al2 O3 nanospheres exhibit 2-4 times higher surface area (up to 251 m2 g-1 ), narrower pore size distribution, and significantly lower crystallization temperature than those obtained without any post-synthesis treatment. To demonstrate the generality of the proposed strategy, a nearly identical post-synthesis "water treatment" method is successfully used to prepare mesoporous monometallic (e.g., manganese oxide (MnO2 )) and bimetallic oxide (e.g., CuCo2 O4 and MnCo2 O4 ) nanospheres assembled of nanosheets or nanoplates with highly enhanced textural characteristics from the corresponding monometallic and bimetallic glycerate nanospheres, respectively. When evaluated as molybdenum (Mo) adsorbents for potential use in molybdenum-99/technetium-99m (99 Mo/99m Tc) generators, the treated mesoporous Al2 O3 nanospheres display higher molybdenum adsorption performance than non-treated Al2 O3 nanospheres and commercial Al2 O3 , thereby suggesting the effectiveness of the proposed strategy for improving the functional performance of oxide materials. It is expected that the proposed method can be utilized to prepare other mesoporous metal oxides with enhanced textural characteristics and functional performance.

Integrated with carbon, Bi2Se3/C composite shows excellent cyclic performance and rate capability. For instance, the Bi2Se3/C anode delivers an initial capacity of 527 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 and maintains 89% of this capacity over 100 cycles. The phase change and sodium storage mechanism are also carefully investigated.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have received much attention in energy storage system. In particular, among the great efforts on enhancing the performance of LIBs and SIBs, yolk-shell (YS) structured materials have emerged as a promising strategy toward improving lithium and sodium storage. YS structures possess unique interior void space, large surface area and short diffusion distance, which can solve the problems of volume expansion and aggregation of anode materials, thus enhancing the performance of LIBs and SIBs. In this review, we present a brief overview of recent advances in the novel YS structures of spheres, polyhedrons and rods with controllable morphology and compositions. Enhanced electrochemical performance of LIBs and SIBs based on these novel YS structured anode materials was discussed in detail.
