“…The NASICON (Na-superionic-conductor)-type materials described by a 3D framework structure and the chemical formula of A x MM′(XO 4 ) 3 (A = Li and Na; X = P, S, Si, Mo, and W) are extensively studied for Na-ion batteries because of their thermal stability, rate performance, and cycle life. − Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 , for instance, when used as a positive electrode material, is characterized by a reversible electrochemical reaction involving the exchange of two Na + through the V 4+/3+ redox couple at 3.4 V (vs Na + /Na) via a two-phase reaction for a theoretical capacity of 118 mAh/g. − To increase this moderate-capacity, new NASICON-type materials capable of multiredox reactions, i.e. , possibly allowing more than one Na + exchange per transition metal, such as Na 3+ x MM′(PO 4 ) 3 (MM′ = FeV, − MnV, − and MnCr − ), have been extensively studied in recent years.…”
