“…Another MoS 2 -graphene hybrid was also reported by J. P. Lemmon et al [ 132 ] In their work, RGO (2 wt%) was incorporated into a MoS 2 /polyethylene oxide (PEO) composite but, even if properly engineered, no real progresses in terms of cycling stability or gravimetric capacity were achieved with respect to the previous MoS 2 research efforts (see Table 2 ). A further graphene/metal sulfi de hybrid (i.e., RGO/CdS [ 133 ] ), alongside with several conversion-(i.e., RGO/ NiO, [ 134 ] RGO/MoO 2 , [ 135 ] RGO/Mn 2 Mo 3 O 8 , [ 136 ] RGO/MnO 2 , [ 137 ] polymer-functionalized RGO/MnO 2 , [ 138 ] solvothermally produced graphene/MnO 2 , [ 139 ] N-doped RGO/VN [ 140 ] and RGO/ CeO 2 [ 141 ] ), and alloying-(RGO/SnSe 2 , [ 142 ] RGO/NiSb [ 143 ] and RGO/FeSb 2 [ 143 ] ) based composites were also proposed for the fi rst time. Unfortunately, none of these enabled satisfactory long term stability (maximum 100 cycles), and most of them showed a high 1 st cycle irreversible capacity (see Table 2 ).…”

“…In all these cases, however, only modest improvements (especially in terms of cycling stability) were observed with respect to the reports published few years before. Although several publications reported the active material mass loadings, [ 58,60,65,129,130,132,138,142,147,168,172,[177][178][179][180] as well as the tap density of the active material [ 57 ] and the density of the electrode, [ 63 ] no considerations about volumetric capacity were made. Some progression on composite anodes based on graphene and germanium (i.e., alloy material), MFe 2 O 4 (M = Co, Ni, Cu) and M x S y (M = Sn, Sb, In) were reported in 2012.…”

that its extraordinary properties would enable revolutionary new technologies, which gave birth to the "graphene era". [ 3,4 ] Relying on this scenario, in 2013, the European Union launched the ¤1 billion "Graphene Flagship" project aimed to investigate the properties of this new form of carbon for various applications (e.g., electronics, sensors and energy storage devices), with the ambitious goal of guiding graphene from laboratories to commercial applications within a decade. [ 5,6 ] In the same period, the Chinese Government set up a similar investment to mass-produce graphene as thin fi lms (e.g., for touchscreen electrodes) and platelets (e.g., for use in batteries). [ 6 ] In the following years, hundreds of patents, mainly focused on manufacturing and application in energy storage, were fi led and the worldwide production of graphene and graphene-containing materials rapidly increased. Although a few Chinese industries claimed to already use graphene-containing materials for smartphone production, no revolutionary practical application relying on graphene has been yet developed. [ 6 ] Specifi cally with respect to the battery fi eld, a close analysis of the scientifi c literature reveals a struggle to meet the ambitious initial targets. A potential loss of focus from the fi nal application caused by hype and ease of publication on such a novel matter, together with the delivery of very misleading information [ 7,8 ] and erroneous statements [ 7 ] concerning the use of graphene in batteries are emerging as possible reasons of the ineffective graphene-era outburst. In this progress report, we do not focus on production and classifi cation of graphene and graphene-containing materials, which were already well reported in the past years. [ 3,[9][10][11] In contrast, due to the lack of an exhaustive analysis of the progression of the use of such materials in lithium-ion battery (LIB) anodes, we report here a critical evaluation of the most prominent research papers published from 2008 until the end of 2015. As shown in Figure 1 , three different stages of the graphene research in LIB anodes can be distinguished: a fi rst stationary phase between 2008 and 2010 where the lithium-ion storage properties of different graphene and graphene-containing materials were preliminarily explored, a second exponential stage, spanning from 2010 to 2014, where graphene and graphene-containing anode materials were broadly developed and investigated, and fi nally, a third phase, (i.e., starting from 2015), where the research seems to have approached a plateau. After Used as a bare active material or component in hybrids, graphene has been the subject of numerous studies in recent years. Indeed, from the fi rst report that appeared in late July 2008, almost 1600 papers were published as of the end 2015 that investigated the properties of graphene as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries. Although an impressive amount of data has been collected, a real advance in the fi eld still seems to be missing. In this framework, atten...

“…Chang et al developed MoS 2 /NG composite by a facile two step mechanism where L-cys was used as S source and doped in NG by heating at an elevated temperature followed by in-situ MoS 2 NSs, as depicted in Fig. 4a [61]. Besides wet chemical/hydrothermal routes, a scalable liquid phase exfoliation approach was used to [65][66][67][68][69]. For example, L-cys assisted FL-SnS 2 /G (few-layer SnS 2 /graphene) composites were synthesized by solution-chemistry method, in which L-cys was used as sulfur source, complexing and reducing agent [66].…”

Abstract:With an ever increasing energy demand and environmental issues, many state-of-the-art nanostructured electrode materials have been developed for energy storage devices and they include batteries, supercapacitors and fuel cells. Among these electrode materials, L-TMD (layered transition metal dichalcogenide) nanosheets (especially, S (sulfur) and Se (selenium) based dichalcogenides) have received a lot of attention due to their intriguing layered structure for enhanced electrochemical properties. L-TMD composites have recently been investigated not only as a main charge storage specie but also, as a substrate to hold the active specie. This review highlights the recent advancements in L-TMD composites with 0D (0-dimensional), 1D, 2D, 3D and various forms of carbon structures and their potential applications in LIB (lithium ion battery) and SIB (sodium ion battery).

“…Besides metals, metal oxides, graphene-based hybrid materials containing different inorganic species, such as metal nitride [20], and metal sulfide [21], metal selenide [22], metal telluride [23], metal antimonide [24], and multi-element compounds have been prepared for the application in the energy storage and conversion materials. Hydro-or solvo-thermal process is a simple method for the preparation of graphene-based inorganic materials [4,25], in which GO could be reduced into graphene and the metal ions precursors would be transformed into metal or metal oxide species, therefore, the inorganic species could be incorporated into the graphene matrix.…”

Graphene attracts more and more scientists and researchers owing to its superior electronic, thermal, and mechanical properties. For material scientists, graphene is a kind of versatile building blocks, and considerable progress has been made in recent years. Graphene-based hybrid materials have been prepared by incorporating inorganic species and/or cross-linking of organic species through covalent and/or noncovalent interactions. The graphene-based hybrid materials show improved or excellent performance in various fields. In this review, we summarize the synthesis of graphene and graphene-based hybrid materials, and their applications in energy storage and conversion. graphene, hybrid material, energy storage, energy conversion Citation:Zhou D, Cui Y, Han B H.
