However, construction of surface O<sub>v</sub> often leads to instability in electrode structure and irreversible electrochemical reactions, posing a significant challenge. To overcome these challenges, atomic heterostructures are employed to address the structural instability and enhance the mass/charge transfer dynamics associated with phase conversion mechanism in aqueous electrodes. Herein, we introduce an atomic S–Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> heterostructure (sulfur (S) anchoring on the surface O<sub>v</sub> of Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>). The integration of S within Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> lattice matrix triggers a charge imbalance at the heterointerfaces, ultimately resulting in the creation of a built-in electric field (BEF). Thus, the BEF attracts OH<sup>−</sup> ions to be adsorbed onto Bi within the regions of high electron cloud overlap in S–Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, facilitating highly efficient charge transfer. Furthermore, the anchored S plays a pivotal role in preserving structural integrity, thus effectively stabilizing the phase conversion reaction of Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>. As a result, the S–Bi<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> electrode achieves 72.3 mA h g<sup>−</sup><sup>1</sup> at 10 A g<sup>−</sup><sup>1</sup> as well as high-capacity retention of 81.9% after 1600 cycles.

{"title":"Enhanced dynamics of Al3+/H+ ions in aqueous aluminum ion batteries: Construction of metastable structures in vanadium pentoxide upon oxygen vacancies","authors":"Zhibao Wang,&nbsp;Hanqing Gu,&nbsp;Tianci Wu,&nbsp;Wenming Zhang,&nbsp;Zhanyu Li","doi":"10.1016/j.jechem.2024.09.062","DOIUrl":"10.1016/j.jechem.2024.09.062","url":null,"abstract":"<div><div>In recent years, aqueous aluminum ion batteries have been widely studied owing to their abundant energy storage and high theoretical capacity. An in-depth study of vanadium oxide materials is necessary to address the precipitation of insoluble products covered cathode surface and the slow reaction kinetics. Therefore, a method using a simple one-step hydrothermal preparation and oxalic acid to regulate oxygen vacancies has been reported. A high starting capacity (400 mAh g<sup>−1</sup>) can be achieved by O<sub>v</sub><img>V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>, and it is capable of undergoing 200 cycles at 0.4 A g<sup>−1</sup>, with a termination discharge capacity of 103 mAh g<sup>−1</sup>. Mechanism analysis demonstrated that metastable structures (Al<sub>x</sub>V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> and H<sub>x</sub>V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>) were constructed through the insertion of Al<sup>3+</sup>/H<sup>+</sup> during discharging, which existed in the lattice intercalation with V<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>. The incorporation of oxygen vacancies lowers the reaction energy barrier while improving the ion transport efficiency. In addition, the metastable structure allows the electrostatic interaction between Al<sup>3+</sup> and the main backbone to establish protection and optimize the transport channel. In parallel, this work exploits ex-situ characterization and DFT to obtain a profound insight into the instrumental effect of oxygen vacancies in the construction of metastable structures during in-situ electrochemical activation, with a view to better understanding the mechanism of the synergistic participation of Al<sup>3+</sup> and H<sup>+</sup> in the reaction. This work not only reports a method for cathode materials to modulate oxygen vacancies, but also lays the foundation for a deeper understanding of the metastable structure of vanadium oxides.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15728,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Energy Chemistry","volume":"101 ","pages":"Pages 562-569"},"PeriodicalIF":13.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142571543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
