“…In the initial cathodic scan, the three electrodes show irreversible reduction peaks, with different intensities. This may be related to the irreversible reactive binding of Na + on the surface functional groups or other defective sites and the formation of SEI films in the first cycle [36]. Compared to SSFC and GSFC, TSFC shows a large sharp peak below 0.1 V, demonstrating an enhanced sodium storage [37].…”

As anode material for sodium ion batteries (SIBs), biomass-derived hard carbon has attracted a great deal of attention from researchers because of its renewable nature and low cost. However, its application is greatly limited due to its low initial Coulomb efficiency (ICE). In this work, we employed a simple two-step method to prepare three different structures of hard carbon materials from sisal fibers and explored the structural effects on the ICE. It was determined that the obtained carbon material, with hollow and tubular structure (TSFC), exhibits the best electrochemical performance, with a high ICE of 76.7%, possessing a large layer spacing, a moderate specific surface area, and a hierarchical porous structure. In order to better understand the sodium storage behavior in this special structural material, exhaustive testing was performed. Combining the experimental and theoretical results, an “adsorption-intercalation” model for the sodium storage mechanism of the TSFC is proposed.

“…Interestingly, biomass derived carbon materials can inherit or evolve unique microstructures, including 0D spherical structure, 1D fibrous structure, 2D lamellar structure, and 3D substrate structure. [107][108][109][110] Recently, biomass derived functional carbon has also been reported as substrates for LMA. In 2017, Wan and co-workers [111] prepared a lightweight, independent, and flexible 3D hollow carbon fiber (3D-HCF) container by pyrolysis of the cotton precursor at high temperatures.…”

“…In situ Raman spectroscopy is a powerful characterization to reveal the changes in electronic and structural properties of carbon/Li metal composite electrodes during cycling by detecting the low-frequency transition modes such as laserinduced vibration and rotation in electrode materials. [107,205] Therefore, the difference in Raman signals before and after Li plating can be compared, and the change of peak position and intensity should correspond to the Li plating position. More importantly, the nucleation sites with higher lithiophilicity can be inferred from the disappearance order of Raman peaks.…”

The lithium metal anode is a competitive candidate for next‐generation lithium‐ion batteries for its low redox potential and ultra‐high theoretical specific capacity. Nevertheless, obstacles regarding heterogeneous lithium deposition, dendrite growth, and poor Coulombic efficiency limit its practical application. Among rational electrode designs, carbon materials have been regarded as feasible hosts for stabilizing lithium to address the above issues due to their light weight, high conductivity, and adjustable physicochemical properties. Therefore, tremendous efforts have been made to design stereoscopic carbon materials with multitudinous lithiophilic sites and large specific surface areas to facilitate rapid lithium‐ion flux, nucleation and mitigate lithium dendrite formation by controlling the kinetics of lithium deposition. Furthermore, the mechanism of lithium plating/stripping is commendably elucidated with the help of advanced in situ characterization techniques. This progress report systematically reviews progress in carbon materials/lithium composite anodes for lithium metal batteries and the detailed parts are as follows: 1) carbon/lithium composite methods; 2) design lithiophilic mechanism; 3) various carbon materials substrates; 4) advanced in situ characterization techniques for lithium metal anodes; and 5) prospects toward the practical applications of advanced lithium metal batteries. This review provides new insights into lithium metal batteries’ technological development and practical application.

Significant climate change and variable fossil energy prices are forcing us to minimize fossil fuel consumption and develop innovative energy conversion and storage systems capable of reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Batteries are the most common form of alternative energy systems, and cathode materials are critical for their performance. Their low-rate performance and short lifespan severely hamper the efficiency of cathode materials. The adoption of nanotechnology is essential to improve the cathode life cycle and maintain capacity. Conventional synthetic techniques face serious problems in producing complex nanomaterials with precise design, high efficiency, and long life. Recent efforts have been made to utilize bio-inspired materials in a variety of applications, emphasizing the importance of biomimetics due to their unique advantages and excellent properties. This review examines the synthesis mechanism, properties, and advances of bioinspired materials in the production of nanomaterials in order to pave the way for the future study of rechargeable batteries. Subsequently, the solutions and problems encountered by cathode materials in the main categories of secondary rechargeable batteries are addressed. The aim of this study is to alert scientists toward this promising development trend in bio-inspired battery materials.
