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
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have been extensively studied owing to the abundance and low-price of Na resources. However, the infeasibility of graphite and silicon electrodes in sodium-ion storage makes it urgent to develop high-performance anode materials. Herein, α-MnSe nanorods derived from δ-MnO2 (δ-α-MnSe) are constructed as anodes for SIBs. It is verified that α-MnSe will be transferred into β-MnSe after the initial Na-ion insertion/extraction, and δ-α-MnSe undergoes typical conversion mechanism using a Mn-ion for charge compensation in the subsequent charge-discharge process. First-principles calculations support that Na-ion migration in defect-free α-MnSe can drive the lattice distortion to phase transition (alpha → beta) in thermodynamics and dynamics. The formed β-MnSe with robust lattice structure and small Na-ion diffusion barrier boosts great structure stability and electrochemical kinetics. Hence, the δ-α-MnSe electrode contributes excellent rate capability and superior cyclic stability with long lifespan over 1000 cycles and low decay rate of 0.0267% per cycle. Na-ion full batteries with a high energy density of 281.2 Wh·kg-1 and outstanding cyclability demonstrate the applicability of δ-α-MnSe anode.

Abstract
Transition metal selenides are considered as promising anode materials for fast-charging sodium-ion batteries due to their high theoretical specific capacity. However, the low intrinsic conductivity, particle aggregation, and large volume expansion problems can severely inhibit the high-rate and long-cycle performance of the electrode. Herein, FeSe2nanoparticles embedded in nitrogen-doped carbon nanofibers (FeSe2@NCF) have been synthesized using the electrospinning and selenization process, which can alleviate the volume expansion and particle aggregation during the sodiation/desodiation and improve the electrical conductivity of the electrode. The FeSe2@NCF electrode delivers the outstanding specific capacity of 222.3 mAh g-1at a fast current density of 50 A g-1and 262.1 mAh g-1at 10 A g-1with the 87.8% capacity retention after 5000 cycles. Furthermore, the Na-ion full cells assembled with pre-sodiated FeSe2@NCF as anode and Na3V2(PO4)3/C as cathode exhibit the reversible specific capacity of 117.6 mAh g-1at 5 A g-1with the 84.3% capacity retention after 1000 cycles. This work provides a promising way for the conversion-based metal selenides for the applications as fast-charging sodium-ion battery anode.

Abstract
In this study, we synthesized manganese selenide under magnetic fields ranging from 0 to 800 gauss and investigated its optical, electrical, and magnetic properties. In the absence of a magnetic field, we observed the formation of MnSe nanorods. As the field strength increased, impurities arose. In the 250 G range, two rock salt structures emerged, altering the morphology from nanorods to cubes. Beyond 250 G, MnSe2 formed, returning to a nanorod morphology. Also, with the increase of the magnetic field, the energy gap of the synthesized compounds increased. To measure the electrical properties of the samples, the synthesized powders were compressed under the same pressure for a certain period of time, and it was observed that the synthesized samples showed insulating behavior in the presence of a magnetic field. For this reason, we performed current-voltage, resistance-temperature, and current-temperature analyses on the synthesized sample, at a constant voltage of 5 eV in the absence of a magnetic field.

Abstract
Recently, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have received considerable attention for large-scale energy storage applications. However, the low initial Coulombic efficiency of traditional SIBs severely impedes their further development. Here, a highly active Na2 S-based composite is employed as a self-sacrificial additive for sodium compensation in SIBs. The in situ synthesized Na2 S is wrapped in a carbon matrix with nanoscale particle size and good electrical conductivity, which helps it to achieve a significantly enhanced electrochemical activity as compare to commercial Na2 S. As a highly efficient presodiation additive, the proposed Na2 S/C composite can reach an initial charge capacity of 407 mAh g-1 . When 10 wt.% Na2 S/C additive is dispersed in the Na3 V2 (PO4 )3 cathode, and combined with a hard carbon anode, the full cell achieves 24.3% higher first discharge capacity, which corresponds to a 18.3% increase in the energy density from 117.2 to 138.6 Wh kg-1 . Meanwhile, it is found that the Na2 S additive does not generate additional gas during the initial charging process, and under an appropriate content, its reaction product has no adverse impact on the cycling stability and rate performance of SIBs. Overall, this work establishes Na2 S as a highly effective additive for the construction of advanced high-energy-density SIBs.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) are promising candidates to power flexible integrated functional systems because they are safe and environmentally friendly. Among the numerous cathode materials proposed, Mn-based compounds, particularly MnO2, have attracted special attention because of their high energy density, nontoxicity, and low cost. However, the cathode materials reported so far are characterized by sluggish Zn2+ storage kinetics and moderate stabilities. Herein, a ZIB cathode based on reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-coated MnSe nanoparticles (MnSe@rGO) is proposed. After MnSe was activated to α-MnO2, the ZIB exhibits a specific capacity of up to 290 mAh g-1. The mechanism underlying the improvement in the electrochemical performance of the MnSe@rGO based electrode is investigated using a series of electrochemical tests and first-principles calculations. Additionally, in situ Raman spectroscopy is used to track the phase transition of the MnSe@rGO cathodes during the initial activation, proving the structural evolution from the LO to MO6 mode. Because of the high mechanical stability of MnSe@rGO, flexible miniaturized energy storage devices can be successfully printed using a high-precision electrohydrodynamic (EHD) jet printer and integrated with a touch-controlled light-emitting diode array system, demonstrating the application of flexible EHD jet-printed microbatteries.

Abstract
Metal selenides are considered as one of the most promising anode materials for Na-ion batteries owing to high specific capacity and relatively higher electronic conductivity compared with metal sulfides or oxides. However, such anodes still suffer from huge volume change upon repeated Na+ insertion/extraction processes and simultaneously undergo severe shuttle effect of polyselenides, thus leading to poor electrochemical performance. Herein, a facile chemical-blowing and selenization strategy to fabricate 3D interconnected hybrids built from metal selenides (MSe, M = Mn, Co, Cr, Fe, In, Ni, Zn) nanoparticles encapsulated in in situ formed N-doped carbon foams (NCFs) is reported. Such hybrids not only provide ultrasmall active nanobuilding blocks (≈15 nm), but also efficiently anchor them inside the conductive NCFs, thus enabling both high-efficiency utilization of active components and high structural stability. On the other hand, Cu-driven replacement reaction is utilized for efficiently inhibiting the shuttle effect of polyselenides in ether-based electrolyte. Benefiting from the combined merits of the unique MSe@NCFs and the utilization of the conversion of metal selenides to copper selenides, the as-obtained hybrids (MnSe as an example) exhibit superior rate capability (386.6 mAh g-1 up to 8 A g-1 ) and excellent cycling stability (347.7 mAh g-1 at 4.0 A g-1 after 1200 cycles).

Abstract
The powerful and rapid development of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in secondary batteries field makes lithium resources in short supply, leading to rising battery costs. Under the circumstances, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) with low cost, inexhaustible sodium reserves, and analogous work principle to LIBs, have evolved as one of the most anticipated candidates for large-scale energy storage devices. Thereinto, the applicable electrode is a core element for the smooth development of SIBs. Among various anode materials, metal selenides (MSex ) with relatively high theoretical capacity and unique structures have aroused extensive interest. Regrettably, MSex suffers from large volume expansion and unwished side reactions, which result in poor electrochemistry performance. Thus, strategies such as carbon modification, structural design, voltage control as well as electrolyte and binder optimization are adopted to alleviate these issues. In this review, the synthesis methods and main reaction mechanisms of MSex are systematically summarized. Meanwhile, the major challenges of MSex and the corresponding available strategies are proposed. Furthermore, the recent research progress on layered and nonlayered MSex for application in SIBs is presented and discussed in detail. Finally, the future development focuses of MSex in the field of rechargeable ion batteries are highlighted.

The 2D conductive hierarchically flakes' abundant pore structure and multiple active sites shorten the ion diffusion length and promote conductivity, while the synergistic effect of the binary metals and intrinsic large pseudocapacitive contribution effectively improve capacity and rate performance. ZMS@FC composites exhibit impressive rate capability of 294.4 mA h g-1 at 10 A g-1 and excellent cyclic stability with 369.6 mA h g-1 specific capacity retention at 2 A g-1 after 1000 cycling in SIBs. It is noted that 156.9 mA h g-1 can be retained at 5 A g-1 and 227.0 mA h g-1 is remained after 500 cycles at 2 A g-1 in PIBs. The ex situ X-ray diffraction patterns and transmission electron microscopy pictures are used to confirm the conversion reaction processes of the Zn-Mn-Se. Designing high-performance energy storage materials may benefit greatly from the universal synthesis technology of bimetallic sulfide anodes for enhanced SIBs and PIBs.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) magnetic semiconductors are considered to have great application prospects in spintronic logic devices, memory devices, and photodetectors, due to their unique structures and outstanding physical properties in 2D confinement. Understanding the influence of magnetism on optical/optoelectronic properties of 2D magnetic semiconductors is a significant issue for constructing multifunctional electronic devices and implementing sophisticated functions. Herein, the influence of spin ordering and magnons on the optical/optoelectronic properties of 2D magnetic semiconductor α-MnSe synthesized by space-confined chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is explored systematically. The spin-ordering-induced magnetic phase transition triggers temperature-dependent photoluminescence spectra to produce a huge transition at Néel temperature (TN ≈ 160 K). The magnons- and defects-induced emissions are the primary luminescence path below TN and direct internal 4 a T1g →6 A1g transition-induced emissions are the main luminescence path above TN . Additionally, the magnons and defect structures endow 2D α-MnSe with a broadband luminescence from 550 to 880 nm, and an ultraviolet-near-infrared photoresponse from 365 to 808 nm. Moreover, the device also demonstrates improved photodetection performance at 80 K, possibly influenced by spin ordering and trap states associated with defects. These above findings indicate that 2D magnetic semiconductor α-MnSe provides an excellent platform for magneto-optical and magneto-optoelectronic research.

Abstract
The Na3V2(PO4)3 (NVP) cathode is deemed to be a promising candidate for sodium ion batteries due to its strong structural stability and high theoretical capacity. Nevertheless, its poor intrinsic conductivity restricts further development. To overcome these shortcomings, a dual modification strategy of Mn2+/Ti4+ co-substitution is proposed for the first time. Significantly, Mn doping can efficiently accelerate the transmission speed of electrons by introducing beneficial holes derived from the low valence state of +2, presenting the classical p-type doping modification. Moreover, the presence of Mn2+ with a larger ionic radius can support the crystal to stabilize the Na superionic conductor (NASICON) framework of the NVP system. Ti4+ is introduced for perfect charge compensation. Accordingly, the addition of Ti4+ can generate excess electrons due to the n-type substitution, which contributes to the favorable electronic conductivity. In addition, conductive carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are utilized to construct an efficient network to improve the rate capability of the NVP composite. Meanwhile, CNTs can inhibit particle growth and thus reduce particle size, shortening the transport path of Na+ and promoting the diffusion of Na+. Comprehensively, the optimized Na3V2-xMnxTix(PO4)3/C@CNTs (x = 0.15) deliver high capacities of 70.3 and 68.2 mA h g-1 at 90C and 180C, maintaining 58 and 53.8 mA h g-1 after 1000 cycles with high capacity retention of 82.5% and 78.9%.

Abstract
Transition metal chalcogenides especially Fe-based selenides for sodium storage have the advantages of high electric conductivity, low cost, abundant active sites, and high theoretical capacity. Herein, we proposed a facile synthesis of Fe7Se8 embedded in carbon nanofibers (denoted as Fe7Se8-NCFs). The Fe7Se8-NCFs with a 1D electron transfer network can facilitate Na+ transportation to ensure fast reaction kinetics. Moreover, Fe7Se8 encapsulated in carbon nanofibers, Fe7Se8-NCFs, can effectively adapt the volume variation to keep structural integrity during a continuous Na+ insertion and extraction process. As a result, Fe7Se8-NCFs present improved rate performance and remarkable cycling stability for sodium storage. The Fe7Se8-NCFs exhibit practical feasibility with a reasonable specific capacity of 109 mA h g-1 after 200 cycles and a favorable rate capability of 136 mA h g-1 at a high rate of 2 A g-1 when coupled with Na3V2(PO4)3 to assemble full sodium ion batteries.
