Carbon‐Insertion‐Engineered WS2 Hierarchical Heterostructure Enabling Superior Sodium‐Ion Storage

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tungsten disulfide (WS2) is considered a promising anode material for sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs). However, its practical application is hindered by poor electrical conductivity, large volume changes during cycling, and sluggish ion diffusion kinetics, which lead to unsatisfactory electrochemical performance.

Ionic‐Liquid‐Assisted Synthesis of NiTe/CoTe Heterostructure With Te Vacancies in N, P, and F Co‐Doped Hollow Carbon Nanorods for Efficient Alkaline Hydrogen Evolution and High‐Performance Flexible Supercapacitors

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Low conductivity, slow ion‐diffusion, and limited reactive sites are common problems in electrocatalysts and electrode materials. In this study, a complex NiTe–CoTe heterojunction with abundant Te vacancies embedded in N, P, and F co‐doped hollow carbon nanorods (NiTe1−x–CoTe1−x/NPFC) was fabricated via a simple ionic liquid‐assisted ...

Multiscale Study of a Synergistic System in Carbon‐Coated Multimetal‐Based Selenides Toward Rapid and Highly Stable Sodium Storage

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The development of sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) is limited by slow charge transfer kinetics and large material volume changes caused by the large radius of Na+. Leveraging the excellent physicochemical properties and unique heterostructures of metal selenides, ultrafine hetero‐CuFeSe2‐CoSe2 nanoparticles are in situ wrapped by ...
