Redox Complexity in Sodium Manganese Hexacyanomanganate and Its Influence on Sodium‐Ion Storage Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The role of each Mn site in the Na3‐xMn[Mn(CN)6]·zH2O compounds’ redox activity was investigated using a combined experimental–computational approach, which shows that only the low‐spin Mn‐C site undergoes redox changes (Mn1+ to Mn4+), while high‐spin Mn‐N remains unchanged. The study confirms the presence of the Mn1+ intermediate and newly reveals its
