Abstract
In response to the suboptimal electrochemical performance of low-valence vanadium oxides, Ganoderma lucidum biomass-derived carbon@V2O3 (V2O3@CGL) composites were prepared by evaporative self-assembly technology and high-temperature calcination. In the prepared composites, V2O3 effectively encapsulates CGL, serving as a support for V2O3 and enhancing electrical conductivity and structural stability. This results in improved overall performance for the composites. They revealed satisfactory electrochemical properties when assembled in aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs). The preliminary discharge specific capacity of the V2O3@CGL-2 (VOCG-2) composite electrode reached 407.87 mAh g-1 at 0.05 A g-1. After 1000 cycles, the capacity retention is 93.69% at 3 A g-1. This research underscores the feasibility of employing V2O3 and abundantly available biomass for high-performance AZIB cathodes.

NANO-MICRO LETTERS 2024; 16:184. [PMID: 38684597 PMCID: PMC11058737 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-024-01410-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
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
Vanadium-based oxides have attracted much attention because of their rich valences and adjustable structures. The high theoretical specific capacity contributed by the two-electron-transfer process (V5+ /V3+ ) makes it an ideal cathode material for aqueous zinc-ion batteries. However, slow diffusion kinetics and poor structural stability limit the application of vanadium-based oxides. Herein, a strategy for intercalating organic matter between vanadium-based oxide layers is proposed to attain high rate performance and long cycling life. The V3 O7 ·H2 O is synthesized in situ on the carbon cloth to form an open porous structure, which provides sufficient contact areas with electrolyte and facilitates zinc ion transport. On the molecular level, the added organic matter p-aminophenol (pAP) not only plays a supporting role in the V3 O7 ·H2 O layer, but also shows a regulatory effect on the V5+ /V4+ redox process due to the reducing functional group on pAP. The novel composite electrode with porous structure exhibits outstanding reversible specific capacity (386.7 mAh g-1 , 0.1 A g-1 ) at a high load of 6.5 mg cm-2 , and superior capacity retention of 80% at 3 A g-1 for 2100 cycles.

Abstract
Given their plentiful reserves, impressive safety features, and economical pricing, aqueous zinc - ion batteries (ZIBs) have positioned themselves as strong competitors to lithium - ion batteries. Yet, the scarcity of available cathode materials poses a challenge to their continued development. In this study, a V2O5/V6O13 heterostructure has been synthesized using a one - pot hydrothermal approach and employed as the cathode material for ZIBs. As evidenced by both experimental and theoretical findings, V2O5/V6O13 heterostructure delivers a rapid electrons and ions diffusion kinetics promoted by the stable interface and strong electronic coupling with significant charge transfer between V2O5 and V6O13, as well as a stable interface achieved by adjusting V - O bond length. Consequently, the optimized V2O5/V6O13 heterostructure cathode of ZIBs demonstrates exceptional capacity (338 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1), remarkable cycling stability (92.96 % retained after 1400 cycles at 1 A g-1). Through comprehensive theoretical calculations and ex situ characterization, the kinetic analysis and storage mechanism of Zn2+ are thoroughly investigated, providing a solid theoretical foundation for the advancement of novel V - based cathode materials aimed at enhancing the performance of ZIBs.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) are expected to be an attractive alternative in advanced energy storage devices due to large abundance and dependable security. Nevertheless, the undesirable energy density and operating voltage still hinder the development of AZIBs, which is intimately associated with the fundamental properties of the cathode. In this work, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) intercalated Mn0.07 VOx (PVP-MnVO) with a large interlayer spacing of 13.5 Å (against 12.5 Å for MnVO) synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method is adopted for the cathode in AZIBs. The experimental results demonstrate that PVP-MnVO with expanded interlayer spacing provides beneficial channels for the rapid diffusion of Zn2+ , resulting in a high discharge capacity of 402 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 , superior to that of MnVO (275 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 ). Meanwhile, the PVP molecule remains in the layer structure as a binder/pillar, which can maintain its structural integrity well during the charging/discharging process. Consequently, PVP-MnVO cathode exhibits superior rate capability and cycling stability (89% retention after 4300 cycles at 10 A g-1 ) compared to that of MnVO (≈51% retention over 500 cycles at 2 A g-1 ). This work proposes a new approach to optimize the performance of vanadium-based electrode materials in AZIBs.

Abstract
Molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) has been widely studied in the energy storage field due to its various phase states and unique structural advantages. Among them, lamellar α-phase MoO3 (α-MoO3) and tunnel-like h-phase MoO3 (h-MoO3) have attracted much attention. In this study, we demonstrate that vanadate ion (VO3-) can transform α-MoO3 (a thermodynamically stable phase) to h-MoO3 (a metastable phase) by altering the connection of [MoO6] octahedra configurations. h-MoO3 with VO3- inserted (referred to as h-MoO3-V) as the cathode material for aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) exhibits excellent Zn2+ storage performances. The improvement in electrochemical properties is attributed to the open tunneling structure of the h-MoO3-V, which offers more active sites for Zn2+ (de)intercalation and diffusion. As expected, the Zn//h-MoO3-V battery delivers specific capacity of 250 mAh·g-1 at 0.1 A·g-1 and rate capability (73% retention from 0.1 to 1 A·g-1, 80 cycles), well exceeding those of Zn//h-MoO3 and Zn//α-MoO3 batteries. This study demonstrates that the tunneling structure of h-MoO3 can be modulated by VO3- to enhance the electrochemical properties for AZIBs. Furthermore, it provides valuable insights for the synthesis, development and future applications of h-MoO3.

Abstract
This paper reports the synthesis and characterization of hydrated vanadium oxide (VOH) and chemically preintercalated polyanilines in VOH, labeled as PAVO-H as the cathode material for aqueous zinc-ion batteries. Synthesized PAVO-H has a high surface area and rod-shaped morphology. PAVO-H has an increased interlayer distance of 13.36 Å. PAVO-H offers high specific capacities of 330 and 225 mAh g-1 at 50 mA g-1 and 4 A g-1 of current densities, respectively, with a 92% capacity retention rate of over 3000 cycles. The preintercalation of polyaniline is likely to catalyze the redox reaction and facilitate and simplify transport kinetics. It is also possible that the preintercalation of polyaniline permits the insertion of large hydrated Zn ions and reduces the formation of zinc basic salts.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) stand out among many monovalent/multivalent metal-ion batteries as promising new energy storage devices because of their good safety, low cost, and environmental friendliness. Nevertheless, there are still many great challenges to exploring new-type cathode materials that are suitable for Zn2+ intercalation. Vanadium-based compounds with various structures, large layer spacing, and different oxidation states are considered suitable cathode candidates for AZIBs. Herein, the research advances in vanadium-based compounds in recent years are systematically reviewed. The preparation methods, crystal structures, electrochemical performances, and energy storage mechanisms of vanadium-based compounds (e.g., vanadium phosphates, vanadium oxides, vanadates, vanadium sulfides, and vanadium nitrides) are mainly introduced. Finally, the limitations and development prospects of vanadium-based compounds are pointed out. Vanadium-based compounds as cathode materials for AZIBs are hoped to flourish in the coming years and attract more and more researchers' attention.

Abstract
Aqueous ammonium-ion energy storage systems have recently gained continuous attention owing to the advantages of sustainability and environmental-friendliness in the grid-scale application. However, ammonium-ion supercapacitors are still in their infancy, and it is of great challenge in developing suitable materials for application in wearable energy storage devices. Herein, we develop a vanadium oxide hydration (V2O5·nH2O)/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) composite film (denoted as VGF) as a free-standing paper-like electrode for ammonium-ion storage, where V2O5·nH2O shows an expanded interlayer spacing and is sandwiched by rGO through chemical bonds. As a result, the designed VGF exhibits a capacitance of 600F·g-1 at 0.2 A·g-1 and good cyclability of over 10,000 cycles with a retention of 93 % using PVA/NH4Cl gel electrolyte. Meanwhile, the ammonium-ion storage mechanism in VGF electrode is further verified to be dominated by the intercalation pseudocapacitance and electric double-layer capacitance. Furthermore, the quasi-solid-state symmetric supercapacitor (SSC) has been also assembled to assess the feasibility of practical applications in wearable devices. As expected, the SSC possesses an areal capacitance of 241 mF·cm-2 at 0.1 mA·cm-2 (0.82 Wh·m-2 at 0.09 W·m-2) and an excellent cyclability of 20,000 cycles with a retention of 92 %, which is comparable to that achieved in the vanadium oxides powder-made electrodes and the SSC made of. Together with the excellent flexibility and feasibility of parallel/series combination, the VGF SSC devices shows great possibility for the applications in wearable devices, which further proves the great potential of this designed VGF free-standing electrode for ammonium-ion storage.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) are regarded as attractive candidates for next-generation energy storage devices. Among various cathode materials, V2O5·nH2O (VOH) possesses a high theoretical capacity but poor cycle stability due to the susceptibility of its open structure to damage by the quick shuttling of Zn2+. Herein, the structural stability of VOH is directly improved by wrapping polyaniline (PANI) on the VOH nanobelts (VOH@PANI). As a cathode material for AZIBs, the VOH nanobelts@PANI core-shell structures exhibit an outstanding cycle stability of 98% after 2000 cycles at 2 A g-1. The improved conductivity and additional energy storage contribution of the PANI endow VOH@PANI with a specific capacity as high as 440 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1, substantially higher than pure VOH (291 mAh g-1). At the same time, high energy and power densities of 349 Wh kg-1 and 3347 W kg-1 are achieved. This work not only demonstrates that p-type doped PANI coatings on VOH can boost the Zn2+ storage of VOH, but also provides a novel method to enhance cathode materials for high electrochemical performance.

Bio-Template Synthesis of V 2O 3@Carbonized Dictyophora Composites for Advanced Aqueous Zinc-Ion Batteries. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28052147.

Abstract
In terms of new-generation energy-storing devices, aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) are becoming the prime candidates because of their inexpensive nature, inherent safety, environmental benignity and abundant resources. Nevertheless, due to a restrained selection of cathodes, AZIBs often perform unsatisfactorily under long-life cycling and high-rate conditions. Consequently, we propose a facile evaporation-induced self-assembly technique for preparing V2O3@carbonized dictyophora (V2O3@CD) composites, utilizing economical and easily available biomass dictyophora as carbon sources and NH4VO3 as metal sources. When assembled in AZIBs, the V2O3@CD exhibits a high initial discharge capacity of 281.9 mAh g-1 at 50 mA g-1. The discharge capacity is still up to 151.9 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles at 1 A g-1, showing excellent long-cycle durability. The extraordinary high electrochemical effectiveness of V2O3@CD could be mainly attributed to the formation of porous carbonized dictyophora frame. The formed porous carbon skeleton can ensure efficient electron transport and prevent V2O3 from losing electrical contact due to volume changes caused by Zn2+ intercalation/deintercalation. The strategy of metal-oxide-filled carbonized biomass material may provide insights into developing high-performance AZIBs and other potential energy storage devices, with a wide application range.

Abstract
With the increasing requirement for high capacity energy storage systems, a large amount of recent work has focused on the development of zinc-iodine batteries (ZIBs) on account of high energy density, fast redox kinetics, and excellent reversibility. Nevertheless, low electron conductivity, the shuttle effect, and highly soluble iodine species (I2, I-, and I3-) have impeded their widespread application. In this study, metal organic framework-5 (MOF-5)-derived mesoporous carbon (MPC) loaded iodine (MPC/I2) cathode and the single-sided ketjen black modified cotton fiber (KB@CF) separator are designed to solve the problems mentioned above. That is, the double fixation strategy using MPC and KB@CF separators for iodine species suppresses the shuttle effect. Therefore, the ZIBs constructed with the MPC/I2 cathode and the KB@CF separator can exhibit excellent electrochemical performance. At the current density of 0.1 A g-1, a high discharge specific capacity of 137 mAh g-1 is still available after 300 cycles. Meanwhile, it exhibits a low capacity decay rate at long cycling (0.030% per cycle over 2000 cycles).

Abstract
Aqueous rechargeable Zn-ion batteries (ARZIBs) have attracted much attention owing to their safety, high energy density and environmental friendliness. However, dendrite formation and corrosive reactions on Zn anode surface limit the development of ARZIBs. Here, Ga3+-doped NaV2(PO4)3 with Na superionic conductor (NASICON) structure [NVP-Ga(x), x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75] have been exploited as the high-efficiency artificial layer to stabilize Zn anode. The optimal NVP-Ga(0.5) layer can homogenize ion flux and promote uniform deposition of zinc, the dendrite growth and the parasitic reactions can be greatly inhibited. The symmetric cell based on this unique protection layer can stably operate over 1,300 h at 0.5 mA cm-2 with 0.5 mAh cm-2. Benefitting from the high-performance Zn metal anode, the full batteries paired with MnO2 cathode deliver a high discharge capacity of 106 mAh/g with the capacity retention rate of 85 % after 8,000 cycles. This work provides an advanced strategy to stabilize Zn anode for the industrialization of ARZIBs in the near future.

Abstract
In this work the nanocomposite of vanadium oxide with conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (VO@PEDOT) was obtained by microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis. The detailed study of its structural and electrochemical properties as cathode of aqueous zinc-ion battery was performed by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The initial VO@PEDOT composite has layered nanosheets structure with thickness of about 30-80 nm, which are assembled into wavy agglomerated thicker layers of up to 0.3-0.6 μm. The phase composition of the samples was determined by XRD analysis which confirmed lamellar structure of vanadium oxide V10O24∙12H2O with interlayer distance of about 13.6 Å. The VO@PEDOT composite demonstrates excellent electrochemical performance, reaching specific capacities of up to 390 mA∙h∙g-1 at 0.3 A∙g-1. Moreover, the electrodes retain specific capacity of 100 mA∙h∙g-1 at a high current density of 20 A∙g-1. The phase transformations of VO@PEDOT electrodes during the cycling were studied at different degrees of charge/discharge by using ex situ XRD measurements. The results of ex situ XRD allow us to conclude that the reversible zinc ion intercalation occurs in stable zinc pyrovanadate structures formed during discharge.

Abstract
Layered vanadium-based materials are considered to be great potential electrode materials for aqueous Zn-ion batteries (AZIBs). The improvement of the electrochemical properties of vanadium-based materials is a hot research topic but still a challenge. Herein, a composite of Zn-ion pre-intercalated V2O5·nH2O combined with reduced graphene oxide (ZnVOH/rGO) is synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method and it shows improved Zn-ion storage. ZnVOH/rGO delivers a capacity of 325 mAh·g−1 at 0.1 A·g−1, and this value can still reach 210 mAh·g−1 after 100 cycles. Additionally, it exhibits 196 mAh·g−1 and keeps 161 mAh·g−1 after 1200 cycles at 4 A·g−1. The achieved performances are much higher than that of ZnVOH and VOH. All results reveal that Zn2+ as “pillars” expands the interlayer distance of VOH and facilitates the fast kinetics, and rGO improves the electron flow. They both stabilize the structure and enhance efficient Zn2+ migration. All findings demonstrate ZnVOH/rGO’s potential as a perspective cathode material for AZIBs.

Abstract
Rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) exhibit great potential in large-scale energy storage systems. However, limited reaction kinetics and poor long-cycle stability restrict the application of vanadium oxide cathode materials. Herein, we designed and successfully synthesized a novel composite material with polyethylene glycol (PEG) and barium cation (Ba2+) preintercalated between the layers of vanadium pentoxide, denoted as PEG-Ba0.38V2O5·nH2O (PEG-BVO), as a cathode material of AZIBs. The optimized PEG-BVO material shows a uniform nanobelt-like structure with the expanded interlayer spacing of 1.07 nm, significantly promoting the transport kinetics of zinc ions. The theoretical calculation results unravel that an interlayer spacing of 1.07 nm may be at the most stable state for this layered composite structure, ensuring a robust architecture for rapid reversible (de)intercalation of zinc ions. As a result, the PEG-BVO electrode (with a large mass loading of 4 mg cm-2) exhibits an outstanding electrochemical performance including a high specific capacity (345 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1), decent rate capability (up to 175 mAh g-1 at 10 A g-1), and long-term cycling stability (98.8% capacity retention upon 4000 cycles at 6 A g-1). Our discovery provides a new guest preinsertion strategy to construct a robust layered vanadium-based electrode with the expanded interlayer spacing, and the as-prepared PEG-Ba0.38V2O5·nH2O shows great potential as a high-rate positive electrode for AZIBs.

Abstract
Rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are promising in stationary grid energy storage due to their advantages in safety and cost-effectiveness, and the search for competent cathode materials is one core task in the development of ZIBs. Herein, the authors design a 2D heterostructure combining amorphous vanadium pentoxide and electrochemically produced graphene oxide (EGO) using a fast and scalable spray drying technique. The unique 2D heterostructured xerogel is achieved by controlling the concentration of EGO in the precursor solution. Driven by the improved electrochemical kinetics, the resultant xerogel can deliver an excellent rate capability (334 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1 ) as well as a high specific capacity (462 mAh g-1 at 0.2 A g-1 ) as the cathode material in ZIB. It is also shown that the coin cell constructed based on spray-dried xerogel can output steady, high energy densities over a broad power density window. This work provides a scalable and cost-effective approach for making high performance electrode materials from cheap sources through existing industrialized materials processing.

Abstract
Recently, aqueous rechargeable batteries employing ammonium-ions (NH4+) as charge carriers have received increasing interest because of their merits of eco-friendly, low cost and sustainability. However, the supercapacitor based on NH4+ charge carriers has rarely been reported probably owing to the lack of a suitable system to achieve acceptable capacitance and cycle performance for NH4+ storage. Herein, we develop a dual-polymer strategy to boost the electrochemical properties of hydrated vanadium oxide (HVO) for outstanding NH4+ storages based on a supercapacitor. One polymer polyaniline (PANI) is intercalated into the interlayer space of HVO (11.0 Å) to synthesize PANI-intercalation-HVO (PVO) with the expanded interlamellar spacing of 13.9 Å, which enhances the kinetics and stabilizes the structure during the NH4+ (de)intercalation. The capacitance at 1 A·g-1 is significantly improved from 156F·g-1 (HVO) to 351F·g-1 (PVO). The other polymer polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is used to get the quasi-solid-state (QSS) PVA/NH4Cl electrolyte, in which the cycle stability of PVO electrode is effectively improved. The PVO exhibits the capacitance retentions of 82% after 2000 cycles and 56% after 10,000 cycles, whereas this value is only 29% after 3000 cycles in NH4Cl electrolyte. The findings reveal that this strategy can effectively reduce the diffusion resistance of ammonium ions and improve the energy storage efficiency of PVO. The flexible QSS PVO//active carbon hybrid supercapacitor (FQSS PVO//AC HSC) device is assembled and exhibits outstanding capacitance, long cycle stability, good mechanical stability and potential practical applications. This work may open up a new window for the study on the improved electrochemical properties of electrode materials for NH4+ storage.

Abstract
By adjusting the structure of vanadium oxides, their electrochemical performances as cathode materials for aqueous rechargeable zinc-ion batteries (ARZIBs) can be improved effectively. Due to the layered structure and high specific capacity of V2O5, many guests (like metal ions and conducting polymers) intercalated and regulated the structure to enhance its electrochemical properties. Polypyrrole (PPy) has attracted people's attention due to its good conductive ability. However, the intercalation of PPy into a lamellar structure of hydrated V2O5 (VOH) has rarely been achieved as a cathode material for ARZIBs. Herein, we developed a pyridinesulfonic acid (PSA)-assisted approach to intercalate PPy into the interplanar spacing of VOH under acidic conditions, and the sample is denoted as VOH-PPy (PSA). The presence of protic acid can improve the electrical conductivity of the polymer and enhance the oxidation of VOH, making the polymerization of pyrrole easier. Furthermore, the nitrogen-containing groups in PSA can interact with vanadium to further expand the layer space of VOH, and the sulfonic groups can facilitate the polymerization of pyrrole. The addition of the PSA results in an ultralarge interlayer spacing of 15.8 Å. VOH-PPy (PSA) delivers an excellent specific capacity of up to 422 mAh·g-1 at 0.1 A·g-1 and a stable cycle performance of 165 mAh·g-1 after 5000 cycles at 10 A·g-1. This work not only realizes PPy expanding the lamellar structure of VOH but also provides feasibility for improving the electrochemical properties of VOH as a cathode material for ARZIBs by intercalating conductive polymers.

RGO/Manganese Silicate/MOF-derived carbon Double-Sandwich-Like structure as the cathode material for aqueous rechargeable Zn-ion batteries. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 610:805-817.

Abstract
Aqueous rechargeable Zn-ion batteries (ARZIBs) have been attracting a great deal of attention due to their immense potential in large-scale power grid applications. It is of great significance to explore cathode material with novel designed structure and first-class performances for ARZIBs. Herein, we successfully construct a double-sandwich-like structure, MOF-derived carbon/manganese silicate/reduced graphene oxide/manganese silicate/MOF-derived carbon (denoted as rGO/MnSi/MOF-C), as the cathode material for ARZIBs. Among the double-sandwich-like structure, manganese silicate (Mn2SiO4, denoted as MnSi) is in the middle of internal reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and external MOF-8 derived carbon (MOF-C). This integrated rGO/MnSi/MOF-C with double-sandwich-like structure can not only avert the sluggish electronic conduction progress caused by the conventional three-phase mixture system of rGO, MnSi and MOF-C, but also display promising Zn2+ storing capability. As expected, in mild aqueous 2 M (mol L-1) ZnSO4 + 0.2 M MnSO4 electrolyte, the initial discharge capacity of rGO/MnSi/MOF-C cathode reaches to 246 mAh·g-1, and the peak discharge capacity reaches to 462 mAh·g-1 at 0.1 A·g-1. This work not only involves the novel MnSi-based cathode for ARZIBs, but also first demonstrates our assumption of constructing the double-sandwich-like structure to improve Zn2+ storage. Moreover, the concept "double-sandwich-like structure" provides an idea for synthesizing the integrated carbon/transition metal silicates (TMSs)/carbon structure to boost the electrochemical properties of TMSs for energy-storing devices.
