N‐Doping Activated Presodiation Enhances Sodium‐Ion Provision in Hard Carbon Anodes
Introducing pyrrolic‐N sites enables efficient presodiation and stronger PF6− capture, thus pre ‐ forming a robust inorganic‐rich SEI layer in hard carbon anodes. ABSTRACT Hard carbon (HC) is considered the most promising anode material for commercial sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs), yet it still faces critical challenges such as low initial Coulombic ...

High Fracture Toughness of 1D Copper‐Based MOP Electrode Enables Fast‐Charging Lithium‐Ion Batteries
Traditional electrode materials suffer from particle cracking and rapid capacity fade during fast charging, largely originating from their low fracture toughness. This work introduces a one‐dimensional Cu‐based metal–organic polymer, in which strong π‐d conjugation and π–π stacking endow the framework with high fracture toughness, simultaneously ...
