In‐Depth Mechanism Understanding for Potassium‐Ion Batteries by Electroanalytical Methods and Advanced In Situ Characterization Techniques

“…Therefore, taking advantage of the in situ XRD and in situ TEM together with other in situ techniques to explore various phase shifts and structure evolution respectively will point out the direction of further modification of these electrode materials. 2)The influence of electrolytes, binders and separators should not be neglected as well. [ 171–174 ] Especially for the electrolytes, the electrochemical behaviors on the interface between electrolytes and electrodes merit more attention. The formation of SEI (solid electrolyte interface) on the anode and CEI (cathode electrolyte interface) on the cathode as well as their characteristics plays a crucial role in designing and matching PIBs.…”

A novel design of 3D carbon host for stable lithium metal anode

“…However, the large volume changes and Li dendrites formed during cycling on metallic Li anodes lead to low Coulombic efficiency (CE), poor cycle stability, and even shortcircuiting‐related safety hazards, therefore hindering the commercial application of LMBs 8–10 . To solve these problems, numerous efforts have been proposed during the past few decades, including designing a stable and uniform artificial solid electrolyte interface (SEI), 11–14 developing electrolyte additives to help uniform Li deposition or stabilize SEI, 15–18 employing high‐modulus solid‐state electrolyte (SSE) to inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites, 19–23 replacing lithium metal with lithium alloy to suppress dendritic lithium formation, 24,25 and constructing Li metal anode with novel structure by nanotechnology to regulate Li‐ion plating/stripping behavior and mitigate the volume change during repeated cycling 26–30 . Although the artificial SEI is more uniform and flexible than self‐driven SEI, it still cannot stand the volume changes after hundreds of cycles.…”

Electrolyte additives will be continuously consumed during battery cycling, which leads to reduced performance.…”

Modular assembly of MOF-derived carbon nanofibers into macroarchitectures for water treatment

“…On account of large surface area, high porosity and more exposure to active sites, the complex macroarchitectures, which are assembled by building blocks with hollow structures, possess greater advantages. 8,9 In the past few decades, in order to seek the high-performance hollow building blocks for macroarchitectures, much effort has been put into it. Particularly, the emergence of onedimensional (1D) carbon hollow nanostructures, including hollow porous carbon nanofibers (HPCNs) 10 and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) 11 promotes the rapid development of this field.…”
