Tuning S Doping in Porous Carbon for Enhanced Initial Coulombic Efficiency and Rate Performance for Sodium/Potassium‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Low‐temperature carbonization and sulfur doping increase defect density and tailor surface area, enabling the formation of a thinner, more stable SEI, enhancing rate performance and the ICE. The S/C composite delivers an ICE of 83.1% and 480 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A g−1, retaining 232.6 mAh g−1 at 5 A g−1 for SIBs and achieves a considerable capacity of 439.2 ...
