mainly hampered by issues arising from the use of aqueous electrolytes, such as the formation of a passive oxidation layer, anode corrosion, and hydrogen evolution reactions. [3] The last five years have witnessed more extensive research into nonaqueous aluminum batteries, particularly those based on ionic liquid (IL) electrolytes that enable reversible stripping and deposition of aluminum. [4] However, various roadblocks still remain to develop an efficient nonaqueous aluminum battery with high capacity and long cycle life, and the major challenge lies in the lack of suitable cathode materials. Scheme 1 summarizes the electrochemical behaviors of some representative cathode materials recently assessed for aluminum-based batteries. In 2015, Lin et al. [5] reported a rechargeable Al battery comprising a chloroaluminate IL electrolyte, a pyrolytic graphite foil cathode, and an aluminum anode. Operated through the intercalation/de-intercalation of chloroaluminate anions (AlCl 4 −) in the graphite, the battery exhibited a specific capacity of ≈70 mAh g −1 at a discharge voltage plateau near 2.0 V versus Al 3+ /Al. Following this work, various carbon-based intercalation cathodes (e.g., graphitic foams, graphene aerogel, and natural graphite) [6] were studied to further improve the capacity and power density. Unfortunately, limited by the storage mechanism based on monovalent AlCl 4 − , most carbon-based materials have shown capacities of less than 100 mAh g −1 , which needs to be improved for practical applications. In parallel, transition-metal oxides and chalcogenides (e.g.
