Abstract
Metal sulfide electrodes for sodium-ion batteries face trade-offs among high capacity, fast kinetics, and stability. The challenge lies in breaking and restoring metal–sulfur bonds and allowing rapid ionic transport. Here we explore the boundary of conversion- and intercalation-type metal sulfides to develop ideal sodium-ion storage materials. We focus on sulfides of vanadium and chromium because of their adjacent atomic numbers but different energy storage mechanism. Among various sulfides of vanadium and chromium, a loosely packed bimetallic sulfide, Cr0.99V1.8S4, with cationic vacancies and metallic conductivity (4.28 S m–1), shows optimal sodium-ion storage performance: an initial Coulombic efficiency of 95.6%, a reversible capacity of 551 mAh g–1 at 1.6 C, and maintaining 100% capacity after 600 cycles at a high rate of 16–66 C.
用于钠离子电池的金属硫化物电极面临着高容量、快速动力学和稳定性之间的权衡。挑战在于打破和恢复金属-硫键,并允许快速离子传输。在这里,我们探索转换型和插层型金属硫化物的边界,以开发理想的钠离子存储材料。我们主要研究钒和铬的硫化物,因为它们原子序数相邻,但能量储存机制不同。在钒铬的多种硫化物中,具有阳离子空位和金属电导率(4.28 S m-1)的松散填充双金属硫化物Cr0.99V1.8S4具有最佳的钠离子存储性能:初始库仑效率为95.6%,在1.6℃下可逆容量为551 mAh g-1,在16-66℃的高倍率下循环600次后容量保持100%。
