Herein, a synergetic strategy of carbon intercalation and selenization is proposed to construct stable 1T-rich MoS<sub>2-x</sub>Se<sub>y</sub>, which is covalently bonded to intercalated carbon monolayers via C─S/Se and C─O─Mo bonds on reduced graphene oxide (MoS<sub>2-x</sub>Se<sub>y</sub>/m-C@rGO).

Selenization remediates sulfur vacancies while enabling the stabilization of the 1T phase due to induced lattice strains and electronic structure modulation. Consequently, the electrode delivers a capacity of 242.3 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> after 2500 cycles at 5 A g<sup>−1</sup>, corresponding to a capacity retention of 82.6% relative to the initial capacity at 5 A g<sup>−1</sup>.

Their reduced dimensions facilitate rapid steady‐state responses, minimal ohmic‐drop, and hemispherical diffusion, making them ideally suited for investigating fast kinetics, localized transport phenomena, and single‐entity redox behavior under realistic battery operating conditions. This review critically examines the growing role of microelectrodes in battery science: from measuring intrinsic charge transfer and diffusion coefficients to mapping morphological transitions and probing interfacial instabilities. It highlights when integrated with advanced characterization tools and operando platforms, microelectrodes can unravel reaction pathways inaccessible to macroscale techniques. Moving forward, it outlines key research directions where microelectrode‐based platforms can make transformative contributions, particularly in non‐equilibrium systems, emerging chemistries, and data‐integrated diagnostics.

An accurate description of solution species, at all points in the transformation, is a prerequisite to design robust and reliable processes.

While cathode engineering has been extensively explored to mitigate these challenges, electrolyte‐based strategies for directly regulating oxygen redox remain limited. To address this limitation, an anthracene‐functionalized cyanoethyl polyvinyl alcohol (An‐PVA‐CN) gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) is developed, offering dual functionalities: anchoring oxidized surface oxygen and scavenging singlet oxygen. The anthracene moiety binds to oxidized lattice oxygen prior to O–O dimer formation, forming a stable Ni─O─C bridging structure that suppresses singlet oxygen release. It also acts as an effective scavenger for any singlet oxygen generated. Simultaneously, the electron‐rich nitrile groups coordinate with transition metals, suppressing over‐oxidation of Ni during charging. Spectroscopic and computational analyses confirm the suppression of oxygen redox and stabilization of surface oxygen species. By regulating charge compensation via transition metal redox while inhibiting oxygen redox, oxygen gas evolution and transition metal dissolution are effectively mitigated. As a result, An‐PVA‐CN GPE enables 81% capacity retention over 500 cycles at 4.55 V in full‐cell configurations.
