Abstract
CONTEXT Silicon carbide nanowires (SiCNWs) are considered a promising alternative material for application in lithium-ion batteries, with researchers striving to develop new electrode materials that exhibit high capacity and high charge/discharge rate performance. To gain a deeper understanding of the application of SiCNWs in semiconductor material science and energy supply fields, we investigated the effects of nanoscale and surface lithiation on the electrical and mechanical properties of SiCNWs grown along the [111] direction. First-principles calculation was used to study their geometries, electronic structures, and associated electrochemical properties. Herein, we considered SiCNWs with full hydrogen passivation, full lithium passivation, and mixed passivation at different sizes. The formation energy indicates that the stability of SiCNWs increases with the increasing diameter, and the surface-lithiated SiC nanowires (Li-SiCNWs) are found to be energetically stable. The mixed passivated SiCNWs exhibit the properties of indirect band gap with the increase of lithium atoms on the surface, while the fully lithium passivated nanowires exhibit metallic behavior. Charge analysis shows that a portion of the electrons on the lithium atoms are transferred to the surface atoms of the nanowires and electrons prefer to cluster more near the C atoms. Additionally, Li-SiCNWs still have good mechanical resistance during the lithiation process. The stable open-circuit voltage range and theoretical capacity of these SiCNWs indicate their suitability as anode materials. METHOD In this study, Materials Studio 8.0 was used to construct the models of the SiCNWs. And all the density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed by the Vienna ab initio Simulation Package (VASP). The self-consistent field calculations are performed over a Monkhorst-Pack net of 1 × 1 × 6 k-points. The energy convergence criteria for the self-consistent field calculation were set to 10-5 eV/atom with a cutoff energy of 400 eV.

Abstract
Silicon and Germanium oxide (SiOx and GeOx) nanostructures are promising materials for energy storage applications due to their potentially high energy density, large lithiation capacity (~10X carbon), low toxicity, low cost, and high thermal stability. This work reports a unique approach to achieving controlled synthesis of SiOx and GeOx nanostructures via photonic curing. Unlike conventional methods like rapid thermal annealing, quenching during pulsed photonic curing occurs rapidly (sub-millisecond), allowing the trapping of metastable states to form unique phases and nanostructures. We explored the possible underlying mechanism of photonic curing by incorporating laws of photophysics, photochemistry, and simulated temperature profile of thin film. The results show that photonic curing of spray coated 0.1 M molarity Si and Ge Acetyl Acetate precursor solution, at total fluence 80 J cm-2 can yield GeOx and SiOx nanostructures. The as-synthesized nanostructures are ester functionalized due to photoinitiated chemical reactions in thin film during photonic curing. Results also showed that nanoparticle size changes from ~48 nm to ~11 nm if overall fluence is increased by increasing the number of pulses. These results are an important contribution towards large-scale synthesis of the Ge and Si oxide nanostructured materials which is necessary for next-generation energy storage devices.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) are attracting worldwide attention due to their multiple merits such as extreme safety, low cost, feasible assembly, and environmentally friendly enabled by water-based electrolytes. At present, AZIBs have experienced systematic advances in battery components including cathode, anode, and electrolyte, whereas research involving separators is insufficient. The separator is the crucial component of AZIBs through providing ion transport, forming contact with electrodes, serving as a container for electrolyte, and ensuring the efficient battery operation. Considering this great yet ignored significance, it is timely to present the latest advances in design strategies, the systematic classification and summary of separators. We summarize the separator optimization strategies mainly along two approaches including the modification of the frequently used glass fiber and the exploitation of new separators. The advantages and disadvantages of the two strategies are analyzed from the material types and the characteristics of different strategies. The effects and mechanisms of various materials on regulating the uniform migration and deposition of Zn2+, balancing the excessively concentrated nucleation points, inhibiting the growth of dendrites, and the occurrence of side reactions were discussed using confinement, electric field regulation, ion interaction force, desolvation, etc. Finally, potential directions for further improvement and development of AZIBs separators are proposed, aiming at providing helpful guidance for this booming field.

Abstract
Two-dimensional polymers (2DPs) are a class of 2D crystalline polymer materials with definite structures, which have outstanding physical-chemical and electronic properties. They cleverly link organic building units through strong covalent bonds and can construct functional 2DPs through reasonable design and selection of different monomer units to meet various application requirements. As promising energy materials, 2DPs have developed rapidly in recent years. This review first introduces the basic overview of 2DPs, such as their historical development, inherent 2D characteristics and diversified topological advantages, followed by the summary of the typical 2DP synthesis methods recently (including "top-down" and "bottom-up" methods). The latest research progress in assembly and processing of 2DPs and the energy-related applications in energy storage and conversion are also discussed. Finally, we summarize and prospect the current research status, existing challenges, and future research directions of 2DPs.

Abstract
In the context of recent progress in designing metal-organic framework (MOF)-based supercapacitor electrodes, we report herein the successful growth of two different crystal morphologies of a cerium-based MOF, octahedral crystals named IRH-2-O and elongated square-bipyramidal crystals named IRH-2-ESBP (IRH = Institute de Recherche sur l'Hydrogène). The identical crystal structure of both materials was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray mapping analysis corroborated this fact and showed the crystal shape variation versus the surface composition of synthesized materials. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, and PXRD were used to confirm the purity of pristine MOFs as well as desired MOF//PANI composites. Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy highlighted the effect of crystal shape on the electrochemical performance of IRH-2 MOFs; the specific capacitance tripled from 43.1 F·g-1 for IRH-2-O to 125.57 F·g-1 for IRH-2-ESBP at 5 mV·s-1. The cycling stability was notably ameliorated from 7 K for IRH-2-O to 20 K for IRH-2-ESBP. Regarding the composites, the cell voltage was notably ameliorated from 1.8 to 1.95 V. However, the electrochemical performance of IRH-2/PANI composites was drastically decreased due to instability in the acidic media. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first work that related the MOF crystal shape and the electrochemical performance.

Abstract
With the rapid development of autonomous and intelligent devices driven by soft actuators, ion soft actuators in flexible intelligent devices have several advantages over other actuators, including their light weight, low voltage drive, large strain, good flexibility, fast response, etc. Traditional ionic polymer metal composites have received a lot of attention over the past decades, but they suffer from poor driving performance and short service lives since the precious metal electrodes are not only expensive, heavy, and labor-intensive, but also prone to cracking with repeated actuation. As excellent candidates for the electrode materials of ionic soft actuators, carbon-based nanomaterials have received a lot of interest because of their plentiful reserves, low cost, and excellent mechanical, electrical, and electrochemical properties. This research reviewed carbon-based nanomaterial electrodes of ion soft actuators for flexible smart devices from a fresh perspective from 1D to 3D combinations. The design of the electrode structure is introduced after the driving mechanism of ionic soft actuators. The details of ionic soft actuator electrodes made of carbon-based nanomaterials are then provided. Additionally, a summary of applications for flexible intelligent devices is provided. Finally, suggestions for challenges and prospects are made to offer direction and inspiration for further development.

Abstract
By developing next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBS), demand for exploring novel anode materials with exclusive electrochemical features and ultra-high capacity is increasing. In the current research, first-principles theory, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted to extensively investigate and compare the capability of three different borophene nanolayers, including striped, β12, and χ3 borophene, as a novel candidate for anode electrode in LIBs. We first predicted the most preferential Li atom adsorption sites on the three borophene structures. The predicted average formation energies for striped, β12, and χ3 borophene were obtained 3.123, 3.184, and 3.216 eV, respectively. The positive value of formation energy exhibits the sufficient stability of the structures. Moreover, the negative adsorption energy proved that Li atom insertion on all borophene monolayers is thermodynamically favorable. In order to simulate the lithiation process, we gradually increased the concentration of Li atoms. We found that the fully lithiated striped, β12 and χ3 borophenes could provide ultra-high specific capacities of 1700, 1983, and 1859 mAh/g, respectively. Structural analysis proved that the surface area expansion rate of the striped borophene in a fully lithiated state was 1%, which was lower than those of β12 and χ3 borophene with 3.33% and 2.63%, respectively. The analyses of electronic properties confirmed that borophenes were inherently metallic and superior ion conductive agents, even after fully lithiated state. Ion diffusion was studied using Nudged elastic band method and the value of diffusion energy barrier ranged from 0.03 to 0.36 eV which was lower than other promising 2D anode materials. Furthermore, open-circuit voltage results demonstrated that the electronic potential of modeled borophenes was low enough to be in the acceptable range of under 1.2V. All these reports exhibited that borophene nanolayers with excellent specific capacity and superior conductivity were desired candidates for anode materials of next generation LIBs.

Abstract
The development of laser-induced graphene (LIG) has been regarded as an effective method for satisfying the substantial requirements for the scalable fabrication of graphene-based electrode materials. Despite the rapid progress in fabricating LIG-based supercapacitors, the incompatibility between material modification and the device planarization process remains a challenging problem to be resolved. In this study, we demonstrate the attributes of novel LIG-MXene (LIG-M) composite electrodes for flexible planar supercapacitors fabricated by direct laser writing (DLW) of MXene-coated polyimide (PI) films. During the DLW process, PI was transformed into LIG, while MXene was simultaneously introduced to produce LIG-M. Combining the porous structure of LIG and the high conductivity of MXene, the as-prepared LIG-M-based supercapacitor exhibited superior specific capacitance, five times higher than that of the pristine LIG-based supercapacitor. The enhanced capacitance of LIG-M also benefited from the pseudocapacitive performance of the abundant active sites offered by MXene. Moreover, the planar LIG-M-based device delivered excellent cycling stability and flexibility. No significant performance degradation was observed after bending tests. Arbitrary electrode patterns could be obtained using the DLW technique. The patterned in-series LIG-M supercapacitor was able to power a light-emitting diode, demonstrating significant potential for practical applications.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials are widely used in microelectronic devices due to their excellent optical, electrical, and mechanical properties. The performance and reliability of microelectronic devices based 2D materials are affected by heat dissipation performance, which can be evaluated by studying the thermal conductivity of 2D materials. Currently, many theoretical and experimental methods have been developed to characterize the thermal conductivity of 2D materials. In this paper, firstly, typical theoretical methods, such as molecular dynamics, phonon Boltzmann transport equation, and atomic Green's function method, are introduced and compared. Then, experimental methods, such as suspended micro-bridge, 3ω, time-domain thermal reflectance and Raman methods, are systematically and critically reviewed.

[PMID: 35076763 PMCID: PMC8789978 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-022-00790-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2021] [Accepted: 12/20/2021] [Indexed: 05/24/2023]
Abstract
Silicon monoxide (SiO) is an attractive anode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries for its ultra-high theoretical capacity of 2680 mAh g-1. The studies to date have been limited to electrodes with a relatively low mass loading (< 3.5 mg cm-2), which has seriously restricted the areal capacity and its potential in practical devices. Maximizing areal capacity with such high-capacity materials is critical for capitalizing their potential in practical technologies. Herein, we report a monolithic three-dimensional (3D) large-sheet holey graphene framework/SiO (LHGF/SiO) composite for high-mass-loading electrode. By specifically using large-sheet holey graphene building blocks, we construct LHGF with super-elasticity and exceptional mechanical robustness, which is essential for accommodating the large volume change of SiO and ensuring the structure integrity even at ultrahigh mass loading. Additionally, the 3D porous graphene network structure in LHGF ensures excellent electron and ion transport. By systematically tailoring microstructure design, we show the LHGF/SiO anode with a mass loading of 44 mg cm-2 delivers a high areal capacity of 35.4 mAh cm-2 at a current of 8.8 mA cm-2 and retains a capacity of 10.6 mAh cm-2 at 17.6 mA cm-2, greatly exceeding those of the state-of-the-art commercial or research devices. Furthermore, we show an LHGF/SiO anode with an ultra-high mass loading of 94 mg cm-2 delivers an unprecedented areal capacity up to 140.8 mAh cm-2. The achievement of such high areal capacities marks a critical step toward realizing the full potential of high-capacity alloy-type electrode materials in practical lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
A method is proposed for designing tunable chiral nano-networks using partly hydrogenated graphene ribbons and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). In the network, the hydrogenated graphene ribbons (HGRs) act as basic components, which connect each other via CNT joints. Each component contains two HGR segments and an internal graphene joint (G-J2) or CNT joint (CNT-J2). Since the two HGR segments are hydrogenated at opposite surfaces, they may wind in chiral about the internal joint to form a scroll (G-J2-scroll or CNT-J2-scroll) or about the two end joints to form CNT-J4-scrolls. In general, a G-J2-scroll is formed more easily than both a CNT-J4-scroll and a CNT-J2-scroll. Because of scrolling, the surface energy is reduced. This reduction is converted to and stored as deformation potential energy. By means of molecular-dynamics simulations, we studied the final configurations of two types of networks from the same components, the maximum shrinkage, and their capacity of energy storage for potential application of energy storage or as large-deformable components in a nano-device. The results indicate that the network reaches a stable state when the shrinkage reaches 70% of the two in-plane dimensions.

Abstract
In this paper, we propose a facile approach to the management of graphene oxide (GO) chemistry via its synthesis using KMnO4/K2Cr2O7 oxidizing agents at different ratios. Using Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, and X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy, we show that the number of basal-plane and edge-located oxygenic groups can be controllably tuned by altering the KMnO4/K2Cr2O7 ratio. The linear two-fold reduction in the number of the hydroxyls and epoxides with the simultaneous three-fold rise in the content of carbonyls and carboxyls is indicated upon the transition from KMnO4 to K2Cr2O7 as a predominant oxidizing agent. The effect of the oxidation mixture's composition on the structure of the synthesized GOs is also comprehensively studied by means of X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic-force microscopy, optical microscopy, and the laser diffraction method. The nanoscale corrugation of the GO platelets with the increase of the K2Cr2O7 content is signified, whereas the 10-100 μm lateral size, lamellar, and defect-free structure is demonstrated for all of the synthesized GOs regardless of the KMnO4/K2Cr2O7 ratio. The proposed method for the synthesis of GO with the desired chemistry opens up new horizons for the development of graphene-based materials with tunable functional properties.

Abstract
The in-plane anisotropy of monolayer InSe plays a critical role in the application of photodetectors. In this work, through nonequilibrium Green's function density functional theory (NEGF-DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations, we investigated the anisotropic quantum transport in darkness and under linearly polarized light, and explored the role of surface-bound excitons in the anisotropic photocurrent. The anisotropic dark quantum transport is attributed to different potential barriers in the zigzag and armchair orientations (Id-zig/Id-arm = 1.2 × 102). Linearly polarized photocurrent calculations show that the extinction ratio reaches a maximum value of 105.67. Moreover, surface-bound exciton calculations via TD-DFT revealed that the strong anisotropic photocurrent derives from surface-bound excitons generated in the In 5pz, Se 4pz, and Se 4dz2 orbitals. InSe shows tremendous potential for use in field-effect transistors, flexible nano- and optoelectronics, and polarized light devices.

Abstract
Abstract
In recent years, rapid technological advances have required the development of energy-related devices. In this regard, Supercapacitors (SCs) have been reported to be one of the most potential candidates to meet the demands of human’s sustainable development owing to their unique properties such as outstanding cycling life, safe operation, low processing cost, and high power density compared to the batteries. This review describes the concise aspects of SCs including charge-storage mechanisms and scientific principles design of SCs as well as energy-related performance. In addition, the most important performance parameters of SCs, such as the operating potential window, electrolyte, and full cell voltage, are reviewed. Researches on electrode materials are crucial to SCs because they play a pivotal role in the performance of SCs. This review outlines recent research progress of carbon-based materials, transition metal oxides, sulfides, hydroxides, MXenes, and metal nitrides. Finally, we give a brief outline of SCs’ strategic direction for future growth.

Abstract
Rapid development of portable and wearable electronic devices has triggered increased research interest in small-scale power sources, especially in micro-supercapacitors (MSCs) because of their high power densities, long service life, and ability to be charged and discharged quickly. Graphene, an ideal two-dimensional energy-storage electrode material with good conductivity, high quantum capacitance, and large specific surface area, can be used as a building block for MSCs with multi-dimensional architectures. Considerable efforts have been devoted to constructing structures with different dimensions for advanced graphene-based MSCs (GMSCS). In this Review, we summarize the recent progress of graphene-based macroscopic assemblies in MSCs, including 1D fiber GMSCs, 2D planar GMSCs; and 3D in-plane or stacked GMSCs, and discuss the relationship between the structures and applications of the devices. In addition, future prospects and challenges in the MSCs are also discussed.

Abstract
Due to their high anisotropy and chemical functions, two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have attracted increasing interest and attention from various scientific fields, including functional electronics, catalysis, supercapacitors, batteries and energy materials. In the biomedical field, 2D nanomaterials have made significant contributions to the field of nanomedicine, especially in drug/gene delivery systems, multimodal imaging, biosensing, antimicrobial agents and tissue engineering. 2D nanomaterials such as graphene/graphene oxide (GO)/reduced graphene oxide (rGO), silicate clays, layered double hydroxides (LDHs), transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), transition metal oxides (TMOs), black phosphorus (BP), graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), antimonene (AM), boron nanosheets (B NSs) and tin telluride nanosheets (SnTe NSs) possess excellent physical, chemical, optical and biological properties due to their uniform shapes, high surface-to-volume ratios and surface charge. In this review, we first introduce the properties, structures and synthetic strategies of different configurations of 2D nanomaterials. Recent advances and paradigms of 2D nanomaterials in a variety of biomedical applications, ranging from drug delivery, cancer treatment, bioimaging and tissue engineering to biosensing are discussed afterwards. In the final part, we foresee the development prospects and challenges of 2D nanomaterials after summarizing the research status of ultrathin 2D nanomaterials.

The compactness of LDMs makes them the ideal medium for all-optical control systems. Many all-optical devices are demonstrated based on the properties of thermo-optic effects and saturable absorption. The materials characteristics and fabrication and the future prospects for all-optical control will also be shown.

Abstract
A self-charging hybrid power unit has been developed by integrating a water-evaporation-induced nanogenerator with a flexible nano-patterned supercapacitor. The nanogenerator can harvest environmental thermal energy and mechanical energy through the water evaporation process, and the supercapacitor can be charged simultaneously. The former offers stable electrical power as output, whereas the Ppy-based supercapacitor shows a capacitance of 12.497 mF/cm2 with 96.42% retention after 4,000 cycles. After filling the power unit with water as the fuel, it can be fully charged in about 20 min. The power unit can be flexibly integrated with electronic devices such as sensor nodes and wireless transmitters employing the Internet of Things. This new approach can offer new possibilities in continuous future operation of randomly distributed electronic devices incorporated in the Internet of Things.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene, are seen as potential candidates for fabricating electronic devices and circuits on flexible substrates. Inks or dispersions of 2D materials can be deposited on flexible substrates by large-scale coating techniques, such as inkjet printing and spray coating. One of the main issues in coating processes is nonuniform deposition of inks, which may lead to large variations of properties across the substrates. Here, we investigate the role of surface morphology on the performance of graphene ink deposited on different paper substrates with specific top coatings. Substrates with good wetting properties result in reproducible thin films and electrical properties with low sheet resistance. The correct choice of surface morphology enables high-performance films without postdeposition annealing or treatment. Scanning terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) is introduced to evaluate both the uniformity and the local conductivity of graphene inks on paper. A paper-based strain gauge is demonstrated and a variable resistor acts as an on-off switch for operating an LED. Customized surfaces can thus help in unleashing the full potential of ink-based 2D materials.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid nanosheets made of electrochemically active materials and graphene, featuring fast reaction kinetics and excellent structural stability, are appealing as electrodes for supercapacitors. Herein, we report a general polyethyleneimine (PEI)-mediated fabrication of the 2D cobalt sulfide/graphene hybrid nanosheets via a facile hydrothermal strategy. Detailed analysis reveals that the uniform cobalt sulfide (CoS) nanoparticles are well-anchored on the 2D graphene surface. Thereinto, the nitrogen species originating from the PEI molecules as bridging sites are helpful in enhancing the coupling effect between the graphene and CoS species, which endows the hybrid nanosheets with high electroactivity and excellent structural stability. The as-obtained hybrid nanosheets with typical pseudocapacitive features demonstrate a high specific capacitance (320 F g-1@1 A g-1) and a superior electrochemical stability with the initial capacitance of 86.5% after 20 000 cycles as electrodes for supercapacitors. The assembled asymmetric supercapacitors by combining activated carbon electrodes further show a high charge storage of 28.8 Wh kg-1 with an output power of 130 W kg-1. More importantly, the similar strategy can be easily extended to fabricate other 2D hybrid nanosheets with extraordinary electrochemical performance with the maximum charge storage of 815 F g-1 and energy density of 44. 6 Wh kg-1. The present work, which achieves the general fabrication of 2D hybrid nanosheets with tuned compositions, may provide a new opportunity for the development of supercapacitors.

Abstract
Herein, an efficient approach to prepare flexible, transparent, and lightweight films based on graphene nanosheets (GNS) and silver nanowires (AgNWs) for high electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) has been explained. High-conductive GNS were fabricated by liquid phase stripping and composited with AgNWs by a two-step spin-coating method. Owing to the high transparency, good conductivity, and homogeneous distribution of both GNS and AgNWs, the obtained GNS/AgNWs film exhibits superb EMI SE and light transmittance, yielding a significantly high EMI SE up to 26 dB in both Ku-band and K-band and light transmittance higher than 78.4%. Moreover, this GNS/AgNWs film shows good flexibility and excellent structural stability. The obtained flexible, light and transparent film could have a great potential for transparent EMI shielding and smart electronics.

Abstract
NO2 sensors with ultrahigh sensitivity are demanded for future electronic sensing systems. However, traditional sensors are considerably limited by the relative low sensitivity, high cost and complicated process. Here, we report a simply and reliable flexible NO2 sensor based on single-layer MoS2. The flexible sensor exhibits high sensitivity to NO2 gas due to ultra-large specific surface area and the nature of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor. When the NO2 is 400 ppb (parts per billion), compared with the dark and strain-free conditions, the sensitivity of the single-layer sensor is enhanced to 671% with a 625 nm red light-emitting diode (LED) illumination of 4 mW/cm2 power under 0.67% tensile strain. More important, the response time is dramatically reduced to ∼16 s and it only needs ∼65 s to complete 90% recovery. A theoretical model is proposed to discuss the microscopic mechanisms. We find that the remarkable sensing characteristics are the result of coupling among piezoelectricity, photoelectricity and adsorption-desorption induced charges transfer in the single-layer MoS2 Schottky junction based device. Our work opens up the way to further enhancements in the sensitivity of gas sensor based on single-layer MoS2 by introducing photogating and piezo-phototronic effects in mesoscopic systems.

Abstract
Metal oxides as electrode materials are of great potential for rechargeable aqueous batteries. However, they suffer from inferior cycle stability and rate capability because of poor electronic and ionic conductivities. Herein, taking vertically orientated Bi2O3 nanoflakes on Ti substrates as examples, we find that the δ-Bi2O3 electrode with plenty of positively charged oxygen defects show remarkably higher specific capacity (264 mA h g-1) and far superior rate capability than that of α-Bi2O3 with less oxygen vacancies. Through pinpointing the existence form and the role of oxygen vacancies within the electrochemical processes, we demonstrate that oxygen vacancies in δ-Bi2O3 can not only promote electrical conductivity but also serve as central entrepots collecting OH- groups via electrostatic force effect, which has boosted the oxidation reaction and enhanced the electrochemical properties. Our work merits an excellent Bi2O3 negative electrode material via giving full play to the role of oxygen vacancies in electrochemical energy storage.
