Numerous benefits of porous electrode materials for lithium ion batteries (LIBs) have been demonstrated, including examples of higher rate capabilities, better cycle lives, and sometimes greater gravimetric capacities at a given rate compared to nonporous bulk materials. These properties promise advantages of porous electrode materials for LIBs in electric and hybrid electric vehicles, portable electronic devices, and stationary electrical energy storage. This review highlights methods of synthesizing porous electrode materials by templating and template‐free methods and discusses how the structural features of porous electrodes influence their electrochemical properties. A section on electrochemical properties of porous electrodes provides examples that illustrate the influence of pore and wall architecture and interconnectivity, surface area, particle morphology, and nanocomposite formation on the utilization of the electrode materials, specific capacities, rate capabilities, and structural stability during lithiation and delithiation processes. Recent applications of porous solids as components for three‐dimensionally interpenetrating battery architectures are also described.

“…For NIBs, it still retained an initial capacity of 459 mA h g −1 at 80 mA g −1 with 81% capacity retention after 200 cycles. Furthermore, metal sulfides (e.g., SnS 2 , MoS 2 , and In 2 S 3 ,) coated with hydro/solvothermal‐derived carbon layers have shown to be capable of delivering superior electrochemical performance . Recently, carbon‐coated Sb 2 S 3 rods were synthesized by Hou et al via a solvothermal method and subsequent annealing treatment .…”

International audienceCarbon-oxide and carbon-sulfide nanocomposites have attracted tremendous interest as the anode materials for Li and Na ion batteries. Such composites are fascinating as they often show synergistic effect compared to their singular components. Carbon nanomaterials are often used as the matrix due to their high conductivity, tensile strength, and chemical stability under the battery condition. Metal oxides and sulfides are often used as active material fillers because of their large capacity. Numerous works have shown that by taking one step further into fabricating nanocomposites with rational structure design, much better performance can be achieved. The present review aims to present and discuss the development of carbon-based nanocomposite anodes in both Li ion batteries and Na ion batteries. The authors introduce the individual components in the composites, i.e., carbon matrices (e.g., carbon nanotube, graphene) and metal oxides/sulfides; followed by evaluating how advanced nanostructures benefit from the synergistic effect when put together. Particular attention is placed on strategies employed in fabricating such composites, with examples such as yolk–shell structure, layered-by-layered structure, and composite comprising one or more carbon matrices. Lastly, the authors conclude by highlighting challenges that still persist and their perspective on how to further develop the technologies

“…Indium sulfide (In 2 S 3 ), a typical III-VI group chalcogenide, attracts intense interest due to its specific optical, acoustic, and electronic properties, and thus has many potential applications for photocatalyst for dye degradation [6], lithium ion batteries [7] and solar cells [8,9]. Meanwhile, as one kind of mid band gap semiconductors, it is a potential material for hydrogen production from water under sunlight irradiation [8].…”

Pure indium (III) sulfide nanostructures have been successfully synthesized through a semi-batch process in the presence of phenylmethoxymethylbenzene as a solvent. Besides, the effects of surfactant concentrations on the morphology and particle size of product were investigated by SEM image. Furthermore, elainic acid and oleylamine was used as the surfactant agent. Moreover, in order to examined solar cell application of as-synthesized In 2 S 3 nanostructure a fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO)/In 2 S 3 /CdS/ Pt-FTO was performed by directly deposited In 2 S 3 film on top of the FTO glass prepared by Doctor's blade method. Photoluminescence study of the In 2 S 3 nanostructures displayed quantum confinement behavior with band gap of 3.5 eV.
