“…The phosphide anode materials have active-matrix materials such as Zn–P-, Sn–P-, Si–P-, and Ge–P-based systems in which elements are totally reactive toward the Li ion . The concept of an active composite is to have different onset potentials such that one component is lithiated while the other one buffered the tension to alleviate the volume change .…”

Germanium phosphide is a potential anode material because of its high theoretical capacity and incredible rate capability on lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the huge volume change that occurs while germanium phosphide is converted to Na3P or Li3P directly leads to poor cyclability and limits further applications. Herein, mesoporous germanium phosphide (MGeP x ) microspheres with diameter size ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 μm were first prepared by a one-step and template-free approach. MGeP x microspheres were composed of nanoparticles of around 10 nm with a narrow distribution of pore sizes of around 4 nm. The MGeP x possessed superior features in LIBs/SIBs since it shortens the diffusion path of the energy carrier and provides the buffer space for the transport of Li/Na ions. MGeP x showed attractive electrochemical properties as a potential anode candidate, such as a high first-cycle Coulombic efficiency of 82.63%, high reversible capacity (1400 mA h g–1 after 150 cycles at 0.2 C), excellent ultrahigh rate capacity (370 mA h g–1 at 72 A g–1, 40 C), and stable cycling performance (450 cycles at 1 C) in the LIBs and high reversible capacity (704 mA h g–1 after 100 cycles at 0.2 C) and stable cycling performance (200 cycles at 0.6 C) in SIBs.

Phosphorus‐rich 6‐MnP4 nanoparticles are synthesized via high energy mechanical milling (HEMM) and their electrochemical properties as an anode for lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) and sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs) are investigated focusing on the electrochemical activity and reaction mechanism. The 6‐MnP4 nanoparticles with a triclinic structure (P‐1) are successfully synthesized by HEMM and they are composed of 5 to 20 nm‐sized crystallites. During the lithiation process, the MnP4 phase undertakes the sequential alloying (MnP4 + 7 Li+ + 7 e− → Li7MnP4) and conversion (Li7MnP4 + 5 Li+ + 5 e− → Mn0 + 4 Li3P) reactions. On the other hand, the MnP4 nanoparticles are directly converted to Mn0 and Na3P without the formation of an intermediate Na–Mn–P alloy phase during sodiation process. The MnP4 electrode shows high initial discharge and charge capacity (1876 and 1615 mAh g−1 for LIBs, and 1234 and 1028 mAh g−1 for SIBs) and high initial Coulombic efficiency (86% for LIBs and 83% for SIBs), indicating a promising candidate for high capacity anodes. In addition, the long‐term cyclability and high rate capability of MnP4 can be further improved through the formation of MnP4/graphene nanocomposites and vanadium substituted Mn0.75V0.25P4 solid solutions.
