Abstract
Herein, hierarchically structured microgrid frameworks of Co3O4 and carbon composite deposited on reduced graphene oxide (Co3O4@C/rGO) are demonstrated through the three-dimensioinal (3D) printing method, where the porous structure is controllable and the height and width are scalable, for dendrite-free Na metal deposition. The sodiophilicity, facile Na metal deposition kinetics, and NaF-rich solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation of cubic Co3O4 phase are confirmed by combined spectroscopic and computational analyses. Moreover, the uniform and reversible Na plating/stripping process on 3D-printed Co3O4@C/rGO host is monitored in real time using in situ transmission electron and optical microscopies. In symmetric cells, the 3D printed Co3O4@C/rGO electrode achieves a long-term stability over 3950 at 1 mA cm-2 and 1 mAh cm-2 with a superior Coulombic efficiency (CE) of 99.87% as well as 120 h even at 20 mA cm-2 and 20 mAh cm-2, far exceeding the previously reported carbon-based hosts for Na metal anodes. Consequently, the full cells of 3D-printed Na@Co3O4@C/rGO anode with 3D-printed Na3V2(PO4)3@C-rGO cathode (≈15.7 mg cm-2) deliver the high specific capacity of 97.97 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles with a high CE of 99.89% at 0.5 C, demonstrating the real operation of flexible Na metal batteries.

Abstract
Ceramic fuel cells presently hold an important position in the future of sustainable energy. However, new concepts and designs are vital for each individual cell's component materials to improve the overall power output and stability. The limited ionic conductivity of the electrolyte component is one major challenge among these. In the present work, we developed nanosheets with a cubic fluoride structure of CeO2 and introduced the di- and tri-valent doping of La and Sr to study their impact on oxygen vacancies and its ionic transport, keeping in mind the fact that CeO2 is reduced when exposed to a reducing atmosphere. The attained La- and Sr-doped fluorite structures of CeO2 exhibited good ionic conductivity of >0.05 S cm-1 at low temperature, and their use in a fuel cell resulted in achieving a power output of >900 mW cm-2 while operating at 550 °C. Therefore, we have found that laterally combining di- and tri-valent doping could be textured to give a highly oxygen-deficient CeO2 structure with high ionic transport. Furthermore, various microscopic and spectroscopic analyses, such as HR-TEM, XPS, Raman, UV-visible, EIS, and density functional theory, were applied to investigate the change in structural properties and mechanism of the ionic transport of the synthesized La and Sr co-doped CeO2 electrolyte. This work provides some new insights for designing high-ionic-conductivity electrolytes from low-cost semiconductor oxides for energy storage and conversion devices.

Abstract
Li-ion insertion into cerium dioxide (CeO2) and its subsequent conversion reaction were studied using a CeO2/copper composite electrode in a superconcentrated electrolyte of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)amide (LiFSA) and methylphenylamino-di(trifluoroethyl) phosphate (PNMePh) under conditions promoting Li plating/stripping. Since the conversion reaction potential with CeO2 generally lies above the Li plating/stripping level, the conversion ideally occurs first in the cathodic scan. However, the conversion reaction was delayed until after the Li plating in the superconcentrated electrolyte contrary to expectations, whereas this phenomenon was unobserved in a dilute LiFSA/PNMePh electrolyte. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and electrochemical impedance analysis indicated that the reversed order of the electrochemical behaviors was caused by the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on the CeO2, which had a different material composition and a higher interfacial resistance than the SEI on electrodeposited metallic lithium.

Abstract
Prussian blue (PB) and its analogues (PBAs) have been acknowledged as promising materials for the catalysis, energy storage, and bioapplications because of different constructions and tunable composition. The approach for surface modification with metal oxides for boosting the performance, however, is rarely reported. Herein, a facile surface anchoring strategy has been proposed to realize CeO2 nanocrystals uniformly depositing on the surface of PB. Besides, the size, thickness, and depositing density of CeO2 nanocrystals can be regulated by adjusting the amount of the precursor and the proportion of ethanol and deionized water. Furthermore, after a step of confined pyrolysis treatment under an air atmosphere, CeO2 nanocrystals with an encapsulated iron oxide structure have been obtained. This shows a remarkable cycling and rate performance when evaluated as an anode of the lithium-ion battery. The surface anchoring approach of the CeO2 nanocrystals may not only promote the various applications of PB-based materials but also provide an opportunity for developing the architecture of other CeO2-based core-shell nanostructures.

Abstract
An in-depth understanding of (de)lithiation induced phase transition in electrode materials is crucial to grasp their structure-property relationships and provide guidance to the design of more desirable electrodes. By operando synchrotron XRD (SXRD) measurement and Density Functional Theory (DFT) based calculations, we discover a reversible first-order phase transition for the first time during (de)lithiation of CeO2 nanoparticles. The LixCeO2 compound phase is identified to possess the same fluorite crystal structure with FM3M space group as that of the pristine CeO2 nanoparticles. The SXRD determined lattice constant of the LixCeO2 compound phase is 0.551 nm, larger than that of 0.541 nm of the pristine CeO2 phase. The DFT calculations further reveal that the Li induced redistribution of electrons causes the increase in the Ce-O covalent bonding, the shuffling of Ce and O atoms, and the jump expansion of lattice constant, thereby resulting in the first-order phase transition. Discovering the new phase transition throws light upon the reaction between lithium and CeO2, and provides opportunities to the further investigation of properties and potential applications of LixCeO2.
