Abstract
The natural abundance of sodium has fostered the development of sodium-ion batteries for large-scale energy storage. However, the low capacity of the anodes hinders their future application. Herein, carbon-encapsulated MnSe-FeSe nanorods (MnSe-FeSe@C) have been fabricated by the in-situ transformation from polydopamine-coated MnO(OH)-Fe2O3. The heterostructure constructed by MnSe and FeSe nanocrystals induces the formation of built-in electric fields, accelerating electron transfer and ion diffusion, thereby improving reaction kinetics. In addition, carbon enclosure can buffer the volumetric stress and enhance the electrical conductivity. These aspects cooperatively endow the anode with superior cycling stability and distinguished rate performance. Specifically, the discharge capacity of MnSe-FeSe@C reaches 414.3 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 and 388.8 mA h g-1 even at a high current density of 5.0 A g-1. In addition, it still retains a high reversible capacity of 449.2 mA h g-1 after 700 long cycles at 1.0 A g-1. Further, the ab initio calculation has been employed to authenticate the existence of the built-in electric field by Bader charge, indicating that 0.24 electrons in MnSe were transferred to FeSe. The in-situ XRD has been used to evaluate the phase transition during the charging/discharging process, revealing the sodium ion storage mechanism. The construction of heterostructure material paves a new way to design performance-enhanced anode materials for sodium-ion batteries.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 670:152-162. [PMID: 38761568 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.05.082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2024] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/20/2024]
Abstract
Metal selenides are promising anode candidates for sodium ion batteries (SIBs) because of their high theoretical capacity, low cost, and environmental friendship. However, the low rate capability at high current density due to its inherent low electrical conductivity and poor cycle stability caused by inevitable volume variations during cycling frustrate its practical applications. Herein, we have developed a simple metallic-organic frameworks (MOFs)-derived selenide strategy to synthesize a series of heterogeneous bimetallic selenides encapsulated within graphene aerogels (GA) as anodes for SIBs. The bimetallic selenides/GA composites have unique structural characteristics that can shorten the migration path for Na+/electrons and accommodate the volume variations via additional void space during cycling. The built-in electric fields induced at the heterointerfaces can greatly reduce the activation energy for rapid charge transfer kinetics and promote the diffusion of Na+/electrons. GA is also beneficial for accommodating the volume variations during cycling and improving conductivity. As an advanced anode for SIBs, the MoSe2-Cu1.82Se@GA with a special porous octahedron can deliver the highest capacity of 444.8 mAh/g at a high rate of 1 A/g even after 1000 cycles among the bimetallic selenides/GA composites.

Abstract
Manganese sulfide (MnS) is a promising converion-type anode for sodium storage, owing to the virtues of high theoretical capacity, coupled with it crustal abundance and cost-effectiveness. Nevertheless, MnS suffers from inadequate electronic conductivity, sluggish Na+ reaction kinetics and considerable volume variation during discharge/charge process, thereby impeding its rate capability and capacity retention. Herein, a novel lamellar heterostructured composite of Fe-doped MnS nanoparticles/positively charged reduced graphene oxide (Fe-MnS/PG) was synthesized to overcome these issues. The Fe-doping can accelerate the ion/electron transfer, endowing fast electrochemical kinetics of MnS. Meanwhile, the graphene space confinement with strong MnSC bond interactions can facilite the interfacial electron transfer, hamper volume expansion and aggregation of MnS nanoparticles, stabilizing the structural integrity, thus improving the Na+ storage reversibility and cyclic stability. Combining the synergistic effect of Fe-doping and space confinement with strong MnSC bond interactions, the as-produced Fe-MnS/PG anode presents a remarkable capacity of 567 mAh/g at 0.1 A/g and outstanding rate performance (192 mAh/g at 10 A/g). Meanwhile, the as-assembled sodium-ion capacitor (SIC) can yield a high energy density of 119 Wh kg-1 and a maximum power density of 17500 W kg-1, with capacity retention of 77 % at 1 A/g after 5000 cycles. This work offers a promising strategy to develop MnS-based practical SICs with high energy and long lifespan, and paves the way for fabricating advanced anode materials.

Abstract
Sodium-ion hybrid capacitors (SIHCs) have attracted much attention due to integrating the high energy density of battery and high out power of supercapacitors. However, rapid Na+ diffusion kinetics in cathode is counterbalanced with sluggish anode, hindering the further advancement and commercialization of SIHCs. Here, aiming at conversion-type metal sulfide anode, taking typical VS2 as an example, a comprehensive regulation of nanostructure and electronic properties through NH4 + pre-intercalation and Mo-doping VS2 (Mo-NVS2) is reported. It is demonstrated that NH4 + pre-intercalation can enlarge the interplanar spacing and Mo-doping can induce interlayer defects and sulfur vacancies that are favorable to construct new ion transport channels, thus resulting in significantly enhanced Na+ diffusion kinetics and pseudocapacitance. Density functional theory calculations further reveal that the introduction of NH4 + and Mo-doping enhances the electronic conductivity, lowers the diffusion energy barrier of Na+, and produces stronger d-p hybridization to promote conversion kinetics of Na+ intercalation intermediates. Consequently, Mo-NVS2 delivers a record-high reversible capacity of 453 mAh g-1 at 3 A g-1 and an ultra-stable cycle life of over 20 000 cycles. The assembled SIHCs achieve impressive energy density/power density of 98 Wh kg-1/11.84 kW kg-1, ultralong cycling life of over 15000 cycles, and very low self-discharge rate (0.84 mV h-1).

Abstract
Currently, severe shuttle effects and sluggish conversion kinetics are the main obstacles to the advancement of lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. Modification of the battery separator by a catalyst is a promising approach to tackle these problems, but simultaneously obtaining rich catalytic active sites, high conductivity, and remarkable stability remains a great challenge. Herein, a flower-like MXene/MoS2/SnS@C heterostructure as the functional intercalation of Li-S batteries was prepared for accelerating the synergistic adsorption-electrocatalysis of sulfur conversion. The MXene skeleton constructs a three-dimensional conductive network that anchors polysulfides and enhances charge transfer. Meanwhile, the MoS2/SnS has rich active sites for accelerating polysulfide conversion, leading to excellent electrochemical performances. A battery with MXene/MoS2/SnS@C displays an extraordinary capacity of 836.1 mAh g-1 over 200 cycles at 0.5C and demonstrates a remarkable cycling stability with a capacity attenuation of approximately 0.051% per cycle during 1000 cycles at 2C. When the sulfur loading reaches 5.1 mg cm-2, the capacity still maintains 722.4 mAh g-1 over 50 cycles. This research proposes a novel strategy to design stable catalysts for Li-S batteries with an extended lifespan.

Abstract
The development of anode materials with high theoretical capacity and cycling stability is very important for the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Herein, SnSe/NC hollow nanospheres with different crystal orientations were prepared by regulating the high-temperature selenization of the PDA@SnO2 precursor for lithium/sodium storage. In SnSe/NC hollow nanospheres, the physical buffering and chemical bonding of the nitrogen carbon matrix and SnSe nanoparticles could inhibit volume expansion and polyselenide loss, thus maintaining long-term structural stability. More importantly, electrochemical tests and DFT calculations show that the diffusion energy barrier of Li+/Na+ is significantly reduced at the SnSe (400) rather than the usual (111) facet, which is conducive to the uniformity of ion insertion into SnSe, thus effectively enhancing the reaction kinetics and reversibility of lithium/sodium storage. Therefore, SnSe/NC hollow nanospheres with rich SnSe (400) and good dispersion formed at 550 °C delivered the best reversible specific capacity and rate performance. After a long period of 900 cycles, the capacity retention of lithium/sodium ion batteries is close to 84.88% and 77.05%, respectively. Our findings provide valuable insights into the design of metal selenides for advanced LIBs/SIBs.

Abstract
To strengthen the electrochemical performance of anode materials for sodium-ion batteries, Cu/Sn co-doped hollow carbon nanofibers functionalized by hybrid CuSn nanospheres (CuSn/C@MCNF) were prepared by a simple electrospinning method. The microstructural characteristics of CuSn/C@MCNF confirmed the same doped elements and strong interactions in hybrid CuSn nanospheres and the hollow carbon nanofiber substrate. CuSn/C@MCNF has superior specific capacity, excellent conductivity and high cycling stability. In particular, the doped hollow carbon nanofiber substrate can facilitate Na+ transport and alleviate volume expansion during the process of sodium storage. When applied as an anode material for sodium-ion batteries, CuSn/C@MCNF can deliver a reversible capacity of 340.1 mA h g-1 at a large current density of 1 A g-1 for 1000 cycles and a high-rate capacity of 202.5 mA h g-1 at 4.0 A g-1, all superior to the corresponding Sn-SnOx@MCNF- and MCNF-based electrodes. This work provides a basic idea for future anode materials in high-performance sodium-ion batteries.

Abstract
The p-n heterojunctions fabricated from one-dimensional (1D) p-type tin sulfide nanorods (SnS NRs) decorated with n-type zero-dimensional (0D) cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CdS QDs) have gained significant research attention in energy storage devices. Herein, we have successfully synthesized a 1D/0D SnS@CdS heterostructure (HS) using a hot injection method. Structural and morphological studies clearly suggest that CdS QDs are uniformly anchored on the surface of SnS NRs, resulting in intimate contact between two components. The photoluminescence (PL) study revealed the transfer of photoexcited holes from CdS QDs to SnS NRs, which was further confirmed by transient absorption (TA) studies. TA measurements demonstrate the hole transfer from the valence band of CdS QDs to SnS NRs and delocalization of electrons between the conduction band of SnS NRs and CdS QDs in SnS@CdS HS, resulting in efficient charge separation across the p-n heterojunction. These findings will open up a new paradigm for improving the efficiency of optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Layered transition metal chalcogenides (MX, M=Mo, W, Sn, V; X=S, Se, Te) have large ion transport channels and high specific capacity, making them promising for large-sized Na+ /K+ energy-storage technologies. Nevertheless, slow reaction kinetics and huge volume expansion will induce an undesirable electrochemical performance. Numerous efforts have been devoted to designing MX anodes and enhancing their electrochemical performance. Based on the metal-organic assembly strategy, nanostructural engineering, combination with carbon materials, and component regulation can be easily realized, which effectively boost the performance of MX anodes. In this Review, we present a comprehensive overview on the synthesis of MX nanostructure using the metal-organic assembly strategy, which can realize the design of MX nanostructures, based on self-sacrificial templates, host@guest tailored templates, post-modified layer and derivative templates. The preparation routes and structure evolution are mainly discussed. Then, Mo-, W-, Sn-, V-based chalcogenides used for Na+ /K+ energy storage are reviewed, and the relationship between the structure and the electrochemical performance, as well as the energy storage mechanism are emphasized. In addition, existing challenges and future perspectives are also presented.

Abstract
In this work, selenide-doped bismuth sulfides (Bi2S3-xSex) was successfully prepared through Se doping Bi2S3 Se to improve the electronic conductivity and increase the interlayer spacing. Then the anisotropic ReS2 nanosheet arrays were grown on the surface of Bi2S3-xSex to form a hierarchical heterostructure (Bi2S3-xSex@ReS2). The doping and construction of heterostructure processes can greatly improve the electrochemical conductivity of electrode materials and relieve the volume expansion during the continuous charge/discharge processes. While applied as SIBs anode, the specific capacity of 330 mAh g-1 was maintained after 450 cycles at the current density of 1.0 A g-1. It can also keep 200 mAh g-1 specific capacity after 900 cycles at 1.0 A g-1 for the anode of PIBs. This heterogeneous engineering and doping dual strategies could provide a good idea for the synthesis of new bimetallic sulfides with outstanding battery performance for SIBs and PIBs.

Abstract
Constructing active heterointerfaces is powerful to enhance the electrochemical performances of transition metal dichalcogenides, but the interface density regulation remains a huge challenge. Herein, MoO2 /MoS2 heterogeneous nanorods are encapsulated in nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon matrix (MoO2 /MoS2 @NSC) by controllable sulfidation. MoO2 and MoS2 are coupled intimately at atomic level, forming the MoO2 /MoS2 heterointerfaces with different distribution density. Strong electronic interactions are triggered at these MoO2 /MoS2 heterointerfaces for enhancing electron transfer. In alkaline media, the optimal material exhibits outstanding hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performances that significantly surpass carbon-covered MoS2 nanorods counterpart (η10 : 156 mV vs 232 mV) and most of the MoS2 -based heterostructures reported recently. First-principles calculation deciphers that MoO2 /MoS2 heterointerfaces greatly promote water dissociation and hydrogen atom adsorption via the O-Mo-S electronic bridges during HER process. Moreover, benefited from the high pseudocapacitance contribution, abundant "ion reservoir"-like channels, and low Na+ diffusion barrier appended by high-density MoO2 /MoS2 heterointerfaces, the material delivers high specific capacity of 888 mAh g-1 , remarkable rate capability and cycling stability of 390 cycles at 0.1 A g-1 as the anode of sodium ion battery. This work will undoubtedly light the way of interface density engineering for high-performance electrochemical energy conversion and storage systems.

Abstract
Sodium-based dual-ion batteries (SDIBs) have become a new type of energy storage device with great application value because of their high operating voltage, high energy density, and low cost. However, transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) anodes show unsatisfactory Na+ electrochemical performance owing to the low intrinsic conductivity and inferior ion transport kinetics. Here, an elaborate design is developed to prepare a composite of WSSe nanosheets supported on a 3D cross-networked porous carbon skeleton (WSSe@CPCS), which possesses en-rich anion vacancies and WSSe with expanded inter-layer spacing, as well as an interconnected porous structure. As a result, the WSSe@CPCS anode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) exhibits preeminent reversible capacities, excellent cycle stability, and superior rate capability. The systematic electrochemical kinetic analysis and density functional theory results further show that the effect of anion vacancies and CPCS synergistically enhances the conductivity and reduces charge transfer resistance, thus making a great contribution to fast reaction kinetics. Finally, the implementations of the WSSe@CPCS anode in progressive SIB and DIB full-cell configurations exhibit satisfactory performance, which reveals their widely practical application. This research will provide an exciting approach to designing advanced defect-structured tungsten-based TMD materials for SIBs, DIBs, and even a broad range of energy storage.

Abstract
Rechargeable batteries are key in the field of electrochemical energy storage, and the development of advanced electrode materials is essential to meet the increasing demand of electrochemical energy storage devices with higher density of energy and power. Anode materials are the key components of batteries. However, the anode materials still suffer from several challenges such as low rate capability and poor cycling stability, limiting the development of high-energy and high-power batteries. In recent years, heterojunctions have received increasing attention from researchers as an emerging material, because the constructed heterostructures can significantly improve the rate capability and cycling stability of the materials. Although many research progress has been made in this field, it still lacks review articles that summarize this field in detail. Herein, this review presents the recent research progress of heterojunction-type anode materials, focusing on the application of various types of heterojunctions in lithium/sodium-ion batteries. Finally, the heterojunctions introduced in this review are summarized, and their future development is anticipated.

Abstract
Heterostructural nanomaterials demonstrate great potential to replace noble metal-based catalysts because heterojunctions could induce relocalization of electrons and facilitate the migration of electrons and charge carriers at the heterostructural boundary between electron-rich and electron-deficient metal sites; however, the instability of heterojunctions greatly hinders their practical applications. We report herein an effective strategy for the fabrication and stabilization of Ni0/NiII heterojunctions inside a porous metal silicate (PMS) material PMS-22 using a nickel coordination complex as the bifunctional template. The synergistic activity between metallic nickel and nickel silicate in PMS-22 highly boosts the catalytic activity in the hydrogenation of phenol, which could activate phenol at a very low temperature of 50 °C. Most importantly, PMS-22 demonstrates robust stability in catalysis, attributed to the strong interaction and charge transfer between metallic Ni and nickel silicate at the heterointerfaces inside the confined pores. Therefore, this work paves a new pathway to improve the stability and activity of heterostructural nanomaterials for catalytic applications.

Abstract
Orthorhombic niobium pentoxide (T-Nb2O5) is a promising anode to fulfill the requirements for high-rate Li-ion batteries (LIBs). However, its low electric conductivity and indistinct electrochemical mechanism hinder further applications. Herein, we develop a novel method to obtain a micrometer-sized layer structure of S-doped Nb2O5 on an S-doped graphene (SG) surface (the composite is denoted S-Nb2O5/SG) after the initial cycle, which we call "in situ electrochemically induced aggregation". In situ and ex situ characterizations and theoretical calculations were carried out to reveal the aggregation process and Li+ storage process. The unique merits of the composite with a micrometer-sized layer structure increased the reaction degree, structural stability, and electrochemical kinetics. As a result, the electrode exhibited a large capacity (∼598 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1), outstanding cycling stability (∼313 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1 and remains at ∼313 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles), and a high Coulombic efficiency and has a high fast-charging performance and excellent cycling stability.

Abstract
Metal-CO2 rechargeable batteries are of great importance due to their higher energy density and carbon capture capability. In particular, Na-CO2 batteries are potential energy-storage devices that can replace Li-based batteries due to their lower cost and abundance. However, because of the slow electrochemical processes owing to the carbonated discharge products, the cell shows a high overpotential. The charge overpotential of the Na-CO2 battery increases because of the cathode catalyst's inability to break down the insulating discharge product Na2CO3, thereby resulting in poor cycle performance. Herein, we develop an ultrathin nanosheet MoS2/SnS2 cathode composite catalyst for Na-CO2 battery application. Insertion of SnS2 reduces the overpotential and improves the cyclic stability compared to pristine MoS2. As shown by a cycle test with a restricted capacity of 500 mAh/g at 50 mA/g, the battery is stable up to 100 discharge-charge cycles as the prepared catalyst successfully decomposes Na2CO3. Furthermore, the battery with the MoS2/SnS2 cathode catalyst has a discharge capacity of 35 889 mAh/g. The reasons for improvements in the cycle performance and overpotential of the MoS2/SnS2 composite cathode catalyst are examined by a combination of Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and extended X-ray absorption fine structure analysis, which reveals an underneath phase transformation and changes in the local atomic environment to be responsible. SnS2 incorporation induces S-vacancies in the basal plane and 1T character in 2H MoS2. This combined impact of SnS2 incorporation results in undercoordinated Mo atoms. Such a change in the electronic structure and the phase of the MoS2/SnS2 composite cathode catalyst results in higher catalytic activity and reduces the cell overpotential.

Abstract
Toxic heavy metal ions, valuable noble metal ions and organic dyes are significant concerns in wastewater treatment. In this work, MoO3 nanobelts (MoO3 NBs) prepared by solvothermal method and MoS2 nanoarrays (MoS2 NAs) constructed using MoO3 NBs precursor were proposed to effectively remove heavy/noble metal ions and organic dyes, such as Pb(II), Au(III) and Methylene Blue (MB). The two adsorbents exhibited the excellent adsorption capacity towards Pb(II), Au(III) and MB. The maximum removal capacity of Pb(II) and MB on MoO3 NBs was 684.93 mg/g and 1408 mg/g, respectively, whereas that of Au(III) and MB on MoS2 NAs was 1280.2 mg/g and 768 mg/g, respectively. Furthermore, the thermodynamic parameters were calculated from the temperature-dependent curves, suggesting that the removal of Pb(II) and Au(III) on both adsorbents was spontaneous and endothermic. The new adsorbents introduced here were high adsorption activity, ease of fabrication, high scalability, good chemical stability, great repeatability and abundant and cheap supply, which were highly attractive for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The poor rate and cycle performance rooting from the inferior electrical conductivity and large volume change are bottlenecks for further application of the potential anode material in sodium-ion batteries. To address this problem, homogeneous CoP nanoparticles enwrapped in the N-doped carbon (CoP/NC) microspheres are synthesized by the simultaneous carbonization and phosphorization of Co-salen complex microspheres for the first time. The N-doped carbon enhances its conductivity and diminishes the volume stress, and the dispersed CoP nanoparticles in carbon provide more reaction sites, resulting in a superior sodium storage performance. CoP/NC microspheres exhibit the capacity of 373 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 after 100 cycles. Even at 2 A g-1 for 2000 cycles, the capacity of 195 mA h g-1 is also achieved. This work provides an excellent reference for the design and synthesis of sulfide, selenide, and other transition-metal composites. It is also beneficial to expand the application of salen complexes in the design and synthesis of catalysts and energy storage materials.

Abstract
The sluggish layered structural sodium reaction kinetics and the easy restacking property are major obstacles hindering the practical application of MoS2-based electrodes for sodium storage. Herein, covalently assembled two-phase MoS2-SnS supported by a hierarchical graphitic carbon nitride/graphene (MoS2-SnS@g-C3N4/G) composite is constructed to improve cycling cyclability and rate performances for Na storage. The multiphase MoS2-SnS@g-C3N4/G is featured with a covalent assembly strategy and an interconnected network architecture. This unique structural design can not only enhance the conductivity and facilitate fast interfacial electron transport, which is confirmed by experiments and density functional theory, but also buffer the volumetric changes of MoS2-SnS. As a result, the as-obtained MoS2-SnS@g-C3N4/G anode delivers a high reversible capacity of 834 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1, a high rate capability of 452 mA h g-1 at 5 A g-1, and a long-term cycling stability (320 mA h g-1 at 2 A g-1 with 54.7% retention after 500 cycles) for the Na half-cell. Coupling with activated carbon (AC), our MoS2-SnS@g-C3N4/G||AC sodium-ion hybrid capacitor delivers high energy/power densities (193.1 W h kg-1/90 W kg-1 and 41.5 W h kg-1/18,000 W kg-1) and a stable cycle life in the potential range of 0-4.0 V.
