Abstract
Two literature-known sulfido vanadates, Na3[VS4] and K3[VS4], were obtained through a straightforward and scalable synthetic method. Highly crystalline powders of both compounds were obtained from the homogeneous molten phases of starting materials via a─comparably rapid─solid-state technique. Low-temperature structure determination, ambient temperature powder diffraction, and solid-state NMR spectroscopy verify previous structural reports and indicate purity of the obtained samples. Both compounds show semiconductivity with the optical band gap values in the range of 2.1 to 2.3 eV. Experimental values of the ionic conductivity and dielectric constants are σ = 2.41·10-5 mS·cm-1, k = 76.52 and σ = 1.36·10-4 mS·cm-1, k = 103.67 at ambient temperature for Na3[VS4] and K3[VS4], respectively. It is demonstrated that Na3[VS4] depicts second-order nonlinear optical properties, i.e., second harmonic generation over a broad wavelength spectrum. The results introduce new aspects of sulfido vanadates as multifunctional candidates for potential optical and electrical applications.

Abstract
Magnesium batteries attract interest as alternative energy-storage devices because of elemental abundance and potential for high energy density. Development is limited by the absence of suitable cathodes, associated with poor diffusion kinetics resulting from strong interactions between Mg2+ and the host structure. V2PS10 is reported as a positive electrode material for rechargeable magnesium batteries. Cyclable capacity of 100 mAh g-1 is achieved with fast Mg2+ diffusion of 7.2 × ${\times }$ 10-11-4 × ${\times }$ 10-14 cm2 s-1. The fast insertion mechanism results from combined cationic redox on the V site and anionic redox on the (S2)2- site; enabled by reversible cleavage of S-S bonds, identified by X-ray photoelectron and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Detailed structural characterisation with maximum entropy method analysis, supported by density functional theory and projected density of states analysis, reveals that the sulphur species involved in anion redox are not connected to the transition metal centres, spatially separating the two redox processes. This facilitates fast and reversible Mg insertion in which the nature of the redox process depends on the cation insertion site, creating a synergy between the occupancy of specific Mg sites and the location of the electrons transferred.

Abstract
Multivalent cation batteries are attracting increasing attention in energy-storage applications, but reversible storage of highly polarizing multivalent cations is a major difficulty for the electrode materials. In the present study, charge-delocalizing Mo3S13 cluster-based materials (crystalline (NH4)2Mo3S13 and amorphous MoSx) are designed and investigated as cathodes for rechargeable magnesium batteries. Both of the cathodes show high magnesium storage capacities (296 and 302 mAh g-1 at 100 mA g-1) and superior rate performances (76 and 80 mAh g-1 at 15 A g-1). A high area loading of 3.0 mg cm-2 could be achieved. These performances are of the highest level compared with those of reported magnesium storage materials. Further mechanism study and theoretical computation demonstrate the magnesium storage active sites are the bridging disulfur groups of the Mo3S13 cluster. The valence state of bridging disulfur decreases/increases largely during magnesiation/demagnesiation along with breaking/formation of the sulfur-sulfur bond, which makes the Mg-association/dissociation highly reversible. The sulfur-sulfur bond breaking and formation provides high reversible capacities. Prominently, the valence state increase and sulfur-sulfur bond formation of the bridging disulfur during charge weakens the bonding with Mg2+, significantly assisting the magnesium dissociation. The present study not only develops high-performance magnesium storage cathode materials but also demonstrates the importance of constructing favorable magnesium storage active sites in the high-performance cathode materials design. The findings presented herein are of great significance for the development of electrode materials for the storage of multivalent cations.

Abstract
Elaborate and rational design of cost-effective and high-efficiency non-noble metal electrocatalysts for pushing forward the sustainable hydrogen fuel production is of great significance. Herein, a novel VS4 nanoparticle decorated Ni3S2 nanobelt array in-situ grown on nickel foam (VS4/Ni3S2/NF NBs) was prepared by a self-templated synthesis strategy. Benefitting from the unique nanobelt array structure, abundant highly active bridge S22- sites and strong electronic interaction between VS4 and Ni3S2 on the heterointerface, the integrated VS4/Ni3S2/NF NBs exhibited excellent electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity and robust stability. The density functional theory (DFT) further revealed the reversible conversion catalysis mechanism of bridging S22- sites in VS4/Ni3S2/NF NBs during HER process. Notably, bidentate bridging SS bonds as the predominant catalytically active centers can spontaneously open once H adsorbed its surface, leading to the aggregation of negative charges on S atoms and thus facilitating the generation of H* intermediates, and spontaneously close when H* desorption is going to form H2. Our work provides fresh insights for developing potential polysulfides as high-performance hydrogen-evolving electrocatalysts for prospective clean energy production from water splitting.

Abstract
Topochemistry enables step-by-step conversions of solid-state materials often leading to metastable structures that retain initial structural motifs. Recent advances in this field revealed many examples where relatively bulky anionic constituents were actively involved in redox reactions during (de)intercalation processes. Such reactions are often accompanied by anion-anion bond formation, which heralds possibilities to design novel structure types disparate from known precursors, in a controlled manner. Here we present the multistep conversion of layered oxychalcogenides Sr2MnO2Cu1.5Ch2 (Ch = S, Se) into Cu-deintercalated phases where antifluorite type [Cu1.5Ch2]2.5- slabs collapsed into two-dimensional arrays of chalcogen dimers. The collapse of the chalcogenide layers on deintercalation led to various stacking types of Sr2MnO2Ch2 slabs, which formed polychalcogenide structures unattainable by conventional high-temperature syntheses. Anion-redox topochemistry is demonstrated to be of interest not only for electrochemical applications but also as a means to design complex layered architectures.

Abstract
Two-dimensional metal dichalcogenides have demonstrated outstanding potential as cathodes for magnesium-ion batteries. However, the limited capacity, poor cycling stability, and severe electrode pulverization, resulting from lack of void space for expansion, impede their further development. In this work, we report for the first time, nickel sulfide (NiS2) hollow nanospheres assembled with nanoparticles for use as cathode materials in magnesium-ion batteries. Notably, the nanospheres were prepared by a one-step solvothermal process in the absence of an additive. The results show that regulating the synergistic effect between the rich anions and hollow structure positively affects its electrochemical performance. Crystallographic and microstructural characterizations reveal the reversible anionic redox of S2-/(S2)2-, consistent with density functional theory results. Consequently, the optimized cathode (8-NiS2 hollow nanospheres) could deliver a large capacity of 301 mA h g-1 after 100 cycles at 50 mA g-1, supporting the promising practical application of NiS2 hollow nanospheres in magnesium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) are considered as potential energy storage devices due to their high volumetric specific capacity, good safety, as well as source abundance. Despite extensive efforts devoted to constructing an efficient magnesium battery system, the sluggish Mg2+ diffusion in conventional cathode materials often leads to slow rate kinetics, low capacity, and poor cycling lifespan. Although transition metal selenides with soft anion frameworks have attracted extensive attention, their Mg2+ storage mechanism still needs to be clarified. Herein, we demonstrate that the ultrathin CoSe2 nanoribbons can be used as a robust cathode material for RMBs and reveal a novel Mg2+ storage mechanism based on cooperative cationic (Co) and anionic (Se) redox processes via systematic ex-situ characterizations. Compared to other metal selenide cathodes based on conversion reactions of solely metal cations, the cooperative cationic-anionic redox reactions of the CoSe2 cathode contribute to obtaining an enhanced specific capacity and boosted electrochemical kinetics. Moreover, on one hand, the ultrathin nanoribbon structure enables effective contact between the electrode material and electrolyte and on the other hand significantly reduces the length and time consumption of Mg2+ diffusion, leading to dominated surface-driven capacitance-controlled Mg2+ storage behavior and rapid Mg2+ storage kinetics. As a result, the ultrathin CoSe2 nanoribbon cathode exhibits a reversible discharge capacity of ∼130 mAh g-1 at 100 mA g-1, good rate capability (116 mAh g-1 at 300 mA g-1), and long cyclability over 600 cycles. This finding confirms the development potentiality of polyvalent metal selenide cathode materials based on a cooperative cationic-anionic redox mechanism for the construction of next-generation multivalent secondary batteries.

Abstract
The weak van der Waals interactions of the one-dimensional (1D) chainlike VS4 crystal structure can enable fast charge-transfer kinetics in metal ion batteries, but its potential has been rarely exploited in depth. Herein, a thermodynamics-driven morphology manipulation strategy is reported to tailor VS4 nanosheets into 3D hierarchical self-assembled architectures including nanospheres, hollow nanospheres, and nanoflowers. The ultrathin VS4 nanosheets are generated via 2D anisotropic growth by the strong driving force of coordination interaction from ammonium ions under microwave irradiation and then evolve into 3D sheet-assembled configurations by adjusting the thermodynamic factors of temperature and reaction time. The as-synthesized VS4 nanomaterials present good electrochemical performances as the anode materials for sodium-ion batteries. In particular, the hollow VS4 nanospheres show a specific capacity of 1226.7 mAh g-1 at 200 mA g-1 current density after 100 cycles. The hierarchical nanostructures with large specific surface area and structural stability can overcome the difficulty of sodium ions embedding into the bulk material interior and provide more reactive materials at the same material mass loading compared with other morphologies. Both experiment and DFT calculations suggest that VS4 nanosheets reduce reaction kinetic impediment of sodium ion in battery operating. This work demonstrates a way of the morphological design of 2D VS4 nanosheets and application in sodium ion storage.

Chalcogenides have been viewed as important conversion-type Mg2+ -storage cathodes to fulfill the high volumetric energy density promise of magnesium (Mg) batteries. However, the low initial Columbic efficiency and the rapid capacity degradation remain challenges for the chalcogenide cathodes, as the clear Mg2+ -storage mechanism has yet to be clarified. Herein, we illustrate that the charge storage mechanism of the Cu2-x Se cathode is a reversible displacement reaction along with a polyselenide (PSe) mediated solution process of anion-compensation. The unique anion redox improves charge storage, while the dissolution of PSe also leads to performance degradation. To address this issue, we introduce Mo6 S8 into the Cu2-x Se cathode to immobilize PSe, which significantly improves performance, especially the reversible capacity (from 140 mAh g-1 to 220 mAh g-1 ). This work provides inspiration for the modification of the Mg2+ -storage cathode, which is a milestone for high-performance Mg batteries.

Abstract
Alkali metal-ion batteries (SIBs and PIBs) and multivalent metal-ion batteries (ZIBs, MIBs, and AIBs), among the next-generation rechargeable batteries, are deemed appealing alternatives to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) because of their cost competitiveness. Improving the electrochemical properties of electrode materials can greatly accelerate the pace of development in battery systems to cover the increasing demands of realistic applications. Vanadium tetrasulfide (VS4 ) is known as a prospective electrode material due to its unique one-dimensional atomic chain structure with a large chain spacing, weak interactions between adjacent chains, and high sulfur content. This review summarizes the synthetic strategies and recent advances of VS4 as cathodes/anodes for rechargeable batteries. Meanwhile, we describe the structural characteristics and electrochemical properties of VS4 . And we describe in detail its specific applications in batteries such as SIBs, PIBs, ZIBs, MIBs, and AIBs as well as modification strategies. Finally, the opportunities and challenges of VS4 in the domain of energy research are described.

Abstract
The development of cathode materials with a high electric conductivity and a low polarization effect is crucial for enhancing the electrochemical properties of magnesium-ion batteries (MIBs). Herein, Mo doping and nitrogen-doped tubular graphene (N-TG) introduction are carried out for decorating VS4 (Mo-VS4/N-TG) via the one-step hydrothermal method as a freestanding cathode for MIBs. The results of characterizations and density functional theory (DFT) reveal that rich sulfur vacancies are induced by Mo doping, and N-TG as a high conductive skeleton material serves to disperse the active material and forms a tight connection, all of which collectively improved the electrical conductivity of electrode and increased the adsorption energy of Mg2+ (-6.341 eV). Furthermore, the fast reaction kinetics is also confirmed by the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) and the pesudocapacitance-like contribution analysis. Benefiting from the synergistic effect of electrical conductivity enhancement and rich vacancy introduction, Mo-VS4/N-TG delivers a steady Mg2+ storage specific capacity of about 140 mAh g-1 at 50 mA g-1, outstanding cycle stability (80.6% capacity retention ratio after 1200 cycles under 500 mA g-1), and excellent rate capability (specific capacity reaches 77.1 mAh g-1 when the current density reaches 500 mA g-1). In addition, the reversible reaction process, intercalation mechanism, and structural stability during the Mg2+ insertion/extraction process are confirmed by a series of ex situ characterizations. This research provides a sustainable and scalable strategy to spur the development of MIBs.

Abstract
Although vanadium (V)-based sulfides have been investigated as cathodes for aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs), the performance improvement and the intrinsic zinc-ion (Zn2+) storage mechanism revelation is still challenging. Here, VS4@rGO composite with optimized morphology is designed and exhibits ultrahigh specific capacity (450 mA h g-1 at 0.5 A g-1) and high-rate capability (313.8 mA h g-1 at 10 A g-1) when applied as cathode material for aqueous ZIBs. Furthermore, the VS4@rGO cathode presents long-life cycling stability with capacity retention of ∼82% after 3500 cycles at 10 A g-1. The structural evolution, redox, and degradation mechanisms of VS4 during (dis)charge processes are further probed by in situ XRD/Raman techniques and TEM analysis. Our results indicate that the main energy storage mechanism is derived from the intercalation/deintercalation reactions in the open channels of VS4. Notably, an irreversible phase transition of VS4 into Zn3(OH)2V2O7·2H2O (ZVO) during the charging process and the further transition from ZVO to ZnV3O8 during long-term cycles are also observed, which might be the main reason leading to the capacity degradation of VS4@rGO. Our study further improves the electrochemical performance of VS4 in aqueous ZIBs through morphology design and provides new insights into the energy storage and performance degradation mechanisms of Zn2+ storage in VS4, and thus may endow the large-scale application of V-based sulfides for energy storage systems.

Abstract
The electrochemical lithiation and delithiation of the layered oxysulfide Sr2MnO2Cu4-δS3 has been investigated by using a combination of in situ powder X-ray diffraction and ex situ neutron powder diffraction, X-ray absorption and 7Li NMR spectroscopy, together with a range of electrochemical experiments. Sr2MnO2Cu4-δS3 consists of [Sr2MnO2] perovskite-type cationic layers alternating with highly defective antifluorite-type [Cu4-δS3] (δ ≈ 0.5) anionic layers. It undergoes a combined displacement/intercalation (CDI) mechanism on reaction with Li, where the inserted Li replaces Cu, forming Li4S3 slabs and Cu+ is reduced and extruded as metallic particles. For the initial 2-3% of the first discharge process, the vacant sites in the sulfide layer are filled by Li; Cu extrusion then accompanies further insertion of Li. Mn2.5+ is reduced to Mn2+ during the first half of the discharge. The overall charging process involves the removal of Li and re-insertion of Cu into the sulfide layers with re-oxidation of Mn2+ to Mn2.5+. However, due to the different diffusivities of Li and Cu, the processes operating on charge are quite different from those operating during the first discharge: charging to 2.75 V results in the removal of most of the Li, little reinsertion of Cu, and good capacity retention. A charge to 3.75 V is required to fully reinsert Cu, which results in significant changes to the sulfide sublattice during the following discharge and poor capacity retention. This detailed structure-property investigation will promote the design of new functional electrodes with improved device performance.

Abstract
As a potential next-generation energy storage system, rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) have been receiving increasing attention due to their excellent safety performance and high energy density. However, the sluggish kinetics of Mg2+ in the cathode has become one of the main bottlenecks restricting the development of RMBs. Here, we introduce oxygen vacancies to spherical NaV6O15 cross-linked with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) (denoted as SNVOX-CNT) as a cathode material to achieve an impressive long-term cycle life of RMBs. The introduction of oxygen vacancies can improve the electrochemical performance of the NaV6O15-X cathode material. Besides, owing to the introduction of CNTs, excellent internal/external electronic conduction paths can be built inside the whole electrode, which further achieves excellent electrochemical performance. Moreover, such a unique structure can efficiently improve the diffusion kinetics of Mg2+ (ranging from 1.28 × 10-12 to 7.21 × 10-12 cm2·s-1). Simulation calculations further prove that oxygen vacancies can cause Mg2+ to be inserted in NaV6O15-X. Our work proposes a strategy for the synergistic effect of oxygen vacancies and CNTs to improve the diffusion coefficient of Mg2+ in NaV6O15 and enhance the electrochemical performance of RMBs.
