Synergistic Ion Transport and Spatial Confinement in Sb‐Embedded Hollow Carbon Nanofibers for Stable Na Metal Anodes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a 3D Sb‐embedded hollow carbon nanofiber (Sb@HCF) host for ultra‐stable Na metal anodes. Experimental analyses and theoretical simulations clearly uncovers that in situ formed Na‐Sb alloy guides uniform Na deposition and serves as efficient ion transport highways. The Sb@HCF‐based cells achieve exceptional cycling stability in half‐,
