This interest stems from their simultaneous roles as sulfur hosts and electrocatalysts, which provide enhancements to the performance of sulfur cathode composites. Nonetheless, their incorporation into the active material blend results in compromised energy density, particularly when their gravimetric proportion is substantial (≥10 wt.%, in the sulfur-based cathode). In this study, a manganese (Mn)-containing HEO (S<sub>config</sub> ≥ 1.5R) was synthesized and subsequently coated onto a commercial Celgard separator at a low areal loading (~0.23 mg cm<sup>−2</sup>) with the aim of decreasing HEO content in the cathode composite material while still boosting lithium polysulfide (LPS) conversion kinetics. Li–S batteries incorporating this modified separator-high entropy oxide (MS-HEO) demonstrate exceptional electrochemical performance, achieving a high initial discharge capacity of ~1642 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> at 0.1 C and a remarkably low-capacity fade rate of 0.055% per cycle over 450 cycles at 1 C. Remarkably, the MS-HEO batteries exhibited commendable electrochemical performance at high sulfur loading (~7 mg cm<sup>−2</sup>), delivering an initial discharge capacity of ~819 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> during the first discharge and maintaining stable cycling up to 30 cycles at 0.1 C thereafter. Collectively, this work underscores the significance of precise adjustment of HEO compositions through low-temperature MOF calcination strategies and demonstrates their potential to enhance the electrochemical performance of Li–S batteries under the high-sulfur loading conditions necessary for future commercial applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":11554,"journal":{"name":"Energy & Environmental Materials","volume":"8 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":14.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/eem2.70058","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145272778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we present efficient photocatalysts featuring heterojunctions composed of vertically grown TMD (MoS<sub>2</sub> and WS<sub>2</sub>) nanosheets.

This study investigates the use of NTP in aqueous dilute Li<sup>+</sup>/Na<sup>+</sup> electrolytes and extends its application to high-concentration K<sup>+</sup> electrolytes. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray absorption near-edge structure analysis, and density functional theory calculations revealed that highly electronegative fluorine partially substitutes for oxygen in the NTP lattice, resulting in the formation of Ti-F bonds. The substitution effectively modulates the electronic structure of Ti<sup>4+</sup>, alters the local coordination environment, and influences the redox dynamics. Enhanced long-term cycling stability and rate performance were demonstrated across aqueous sodium-ion, lithium-ion, and potassium-ion half-cells. Among the investigated systems, the aqueous sodium-ion system exhibited the best electrochemical performance, characterized by a single, well-defined charge–discharge plateau, stable cycling behavior with 88.7% capacity retention after 500 cycles at 1 A g<sup>−1</sup>, and an initial specific discharge capacity of 121.7 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> at 0.2 A g<sup>−1</sup>. The results establish F-doped NTP as a promising candidate for advanced energy storage applications in aqueous alkali metal-ion batteries.</p>","PeriodicalId":11554,"journal":{"name":"Energy & Environmental Materials","volume":"8 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":14.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/eem2.70043","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144774162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
