MoO 2 nanosheets embedded in the amorphous carbon matrix (MoO 2 /C) are successfully synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method and investigated as an anode for sodium-ion batteries. Because of the efficient ion transport channels and good volume change accommodation, MoO 2 /C delivers a discharge/charge capacity of 367.8/367.0 mAh g −1 with high coulombic efficiency (99.4%) after 100 cycles at a current density of 50 mA g −1 .

AbstractRechargeable solid-state sodium-ion batteries (SSSBs) hold great promise for safer and more energy-dense energy storage. However, the poor electrochemical stability between current sulfide-based solid electrolytes and high-voltage oxide cathodes has limited their long-term cycling performance and practicality. Here, we report the discovery of the ion conductor Na3-xY1-xZrxCl6 (NYZC) that is both electrochemically stable (up to 3.8 V vs. Na/Na+) and chemically compatible with oxide cathodes. Its high ionic conductivity of 6.6 × 10−5 S cm−1 at ambient temperature, several orders of magnitude higher than oxide coatings, is attributed to abundant Na vacancies and cooperative MCl6 rotation, resulting in an extremely low interfacial impedance. A SSSB comprising a NaCrO2 + NYZC composite cathode, Na3PS4 electrolyte, and Na-Sn anode exhibits an exceptional first-cycle Coulombic efficiency of 97.1% at room temperature and can cycle over 1000 cycles with 89.3% capacity retention at 40 °C. These findings highlight the immense potential of halides for SSSB applications.

Orthorhombic Na0.44MnO2 with an S-shape tunnel structure was successfully synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The Na0.44MnO2 material has lattice parameters of a = 9.0842 Å, b = 26.2889 Å, and c = 2.8245 Å. Scanning electron microscope analysis reveals that the morphologies of Na0.44MnO2 consist of Na0.44MnO2 nanowires with diameters of about 30-50 nm and Na0.44MnO2 particles with the size in the range of 200 to 500 nm. The first charge and discharge capacities of Na0.44MnO2 cathode, at 0.1 C between 2.0-4.0 V, are 66.2 mAh g-1 and 62.7 mAh g-1, respectively. The Na0.44MnO2 has an excellent cycle stability with 85.3% of capacity retention over 50 cycles. The coulombic efficiency of Na0.44MnO2 material is approximately 90% after 70 cycles. It is suggested that the structure of Na0.44MnO2 is stable during cycling and Na0.44MnO2 can be a promising cathode material for sodium ion batteries.
