Abstract
CO2-responsive materials have emerged as promising adsorbents for the remediation of refractory organic dyes-contaminated wastewater without the formation of byproducts or causing secondary pollution. However, realizing the simultaneous adsorption-separation or complete removal of both anionic and cationic dyes, as well as achieving deeper insights into their adsorption mechanism, still remains a challenge for most reported CO2-responsive materials. Herein, a novel type of urchin-like CO2-responsive Fe3O4 microspheres (U-Fe3O4 @P) has been successfully fabricated to enable ultrafast, selective, and reversible adsorption of anionic dyes by utilizing CO2 as a triggering gas. Meanwhile, the CO2-responsive U-Fe3O4 @P microspheres exhibit the capability to initiate Fenton degradation of non-adsorbable cationic dyes. Our findings reveal exceptionally rapid adsorption equilibrium, achieved within a mere 5 min, and an outstanding maximum adsorption capacity of 561.2 mg g-1 for anionic dye methyl orange upon CO2 stimulation. Moreover, 99.8% of cationic dye methylene blue can be effectively degraded through the Fenton reaction. Furthermore, the long-term unresolved interaction mechanism of organic dyes with CO2-responsive materials is deciphered through a comprehensive experimental and theoretical study by density functional theory. This work provides a novel paradigm and guidance for designing next-generation eco-friendly CO2-responsive materials for highly efficient purification of complex dye-contaminated wastewater in environmental engineering.

Abstract
Versatile nitrogen-centered organic redox-active molecules have gained significant attention in alkali metal-ion batteries (AMIBs) due to their low cost, low toxicity, and ease of preparation. Specially, their multiple reaction categories (anion/cation insertion types of reaction) and higher operating voltage, when compared to traditional conjugated carbonyl materials, underscore their promising prospects. However, the high solubility of nitrogen-centered redox active materials in organic electrolyte and their low electronic conductivity contribute to inferior cycling performance, sluggish reaction kinetics, and limited rate capability. This review provides a detailed overview of nitrogen-centered redox-active materials, encompassing their redox chemistry, solutions to overcome shortcomings, characterization of charge storage mechanisms, and recent progress. Additionally, prospects and directions are proposed for future investigations. It is anticipated that this review will stimulate further exploration of underlying mechanisms and interface chemistry through in situ characterization techniques, thereby promoting the practical application of nitrogen-centered redox-active materials in AMIBs.

The Versatile Establishment of Charge Storage in Polymer Solid Electrolyte with Enhanced Charge Transfer for LiF-Rich SEI Generation in Lithium Metal Batteries. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202320149. [PMID: 38430213 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202320149] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
The solid-state electrolyte interface (SEI) between the solid-state polymer electrolyte and the lithium metal anode dramatically affects the overall battery performance. Increasing the content of lithium fluoride (LiF) in SEI can help the uniform deposition of lithium and inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites, thus improving the cycle stability performance of lithium batteries. Currently, most methods of constructing LiF SEI involve decomposing the lithium salt by the polar groups of the filler. However, there is a lack of research reports on how to affect the SEI layer of Li-ion batteries by increasing the charge transfer number. In this study, a porous organic polymer with "charge storage" properties was prepared and doped into a polymer composite solid electrolyte to study the effect of sufficient charge transfer on the decomposition of lithium salts. The results show in contrast to porphyrins, the unique structure of POF allows for charge transfer between each individual porphyrin. Therefore, during TFSI- decomposition to the formation of LiF, TFSI- can obtain sufficient charge, thereby promoting the break of C-F and forming the LiF-rich SEI. Compared with single porphyrin (0.423 e-), POF provides 2.7 times more charge transfer to LiTFSI (1.147 e-). The experimental results show that Li//Li symmetric batteries equipped with PEO-POF can be operated stably for more than 2700 h at 60 °C. Even the Li//Li (45 μm) symmetric cells are stable for more than 1100 h at 0.1 mA cm-1. In addition, LiFePO4//PEO-POF//Li batteries have excellent cycling performance at 2 C (80 % capacity retention after 750 cycles). Even LiFePO4//PEO-POF//Li (45 μm) cells have excellent cycling performance at 1 C (96 % capacity retention after 300 cycles). Even when the PEO-base is replaced with a PEG-base and a PVDF-base, the performance of the cell is still significantly improved. Therefore, we believe that the concept of charge transfer offers a novel perspective for the preparation of high-performance assemblies.

Abstract
Aromatic azo compounds have -N=N- double bonds as well as a larger π electron conjugation system, which endows aromatic azo compounds with wide applications in the fields of functional materials. The properties of aromatic azo compounds are closely related to the substituents on their aromatic rings. However, traditional synthesis methods, such as the coupling of diazo salts, have a significant limitation with respect to the structural design of aromatic azo compounds. Therefore, many scientists have devoted their efforts to developing new synthetic methods. Moreover, recent advances in the synthesis of aromatic azo compounds have led to improvements in the design and preparation of light-response materials at the molecular level. This review summarizes the important synthetic progress of aromatic azo compounds in recent years, with an emphasis on the pioneering contribution of functional nanomaterials to the field.

Abstract
Organic batteries using redox-active polymers and small organic compounds have become promising candidates for next-generation energy storage devices due to the abundance, environmental benignity, and diverse nature of organic resources. To date, tremendous research efforts have been devoted to developing advanced organic electrode materials and understanding the material structure-performance correlation in organic batteries. In contrast, less attention was paid to the correlation between electrolyte structure and battery performance, despite the critical roles of electrolytes for the dissolution of organic electrode materials, the formation of the electrode-electrolyte interphase, and the solvation/desolvation of charge carriers. In this review, we discuss the prospects and challenges of organic batteries with an emphasis on electrolytes. The differences between organic and inorganic batteries in terms of electrolyte property requirements and charge storage mechanisms are elucidated. To provide a comprehensive and thorough overview of the electrolyte development in organic batteries, the electrolytes are divided into four categories including organic liquid electrolytes, aqueous electrolytes, inorganic solid electrolytes, and polymer-based electrolytes, to introduce different components, concentrations, additives, and applications in various organic batteries with different charge carriers, interphases, and separators. The perspectives and outlook for the future development of advanced electrolytes are also discussed to provide a guidance for the electrolyte design and optimization in organic batteries. We believe that this review will stimulate an in-depth study of electrolytes and accelerate the commercialization of organic batteries.

Abstract
An Li1.3Al0.3SnxTi1.7−x(PO4)3 (LATP-xSn) ceramic solid electrolyte was prepared by Sn doping via a solid phase method. The results showed that adding an Sn dopant with a larger ionic radius in a concentration of x = 0.35 enabled one to equivalently substitute Ti sites in the LATP crystal structure to the maximum extent. The uniform Sn doping could produce a stable LATP structure with small grain size and improved relative density. The lattice distortion induced by Sn doping also modified the transport channels of Li ions, which promoted the increase of ionic conductivity from 5.05 × 10−5 to 4.71 × 10−4 S/cm at room temperature. The SPE/LATP-0.35Sn/SPE composite solid electrolyte with a sandwich structure was prepared by coating, which had a high ionic conductivity of 5.9 × 10−5 S/cm at room temperature, a wide electrochemical window of 4.66 V vs. Li/Li+, and a good lithium-ion migration number of 0.38. The Li||Li symmetric battery test results revealed that the composite solid electrolyte could stably perform for 500 h at 60 °C under the current density of 0.2 mA/cm2, indicating its good interface stability with metallic lithium. Moreover, the analysis of the all-solid-state LiFePO4||SPE/LATP-0.35Sn/SPE||Li battery showed that the composite solid electrolyte had good cycling stability and rate performance. Under the conditions of 60 °C and 0.2 C, stable accumulation up to 200 cycles was achieved at a capacity retention ratio of 90.5% and a coulombic efficiency of about 100% after cycling test.

Abstract
The key to enabling high energy density of organic energy-storage systems is the development of high-voltage organic cathodes; however, the redox voltage (<4.0 V vs Li/Li+) of state-of-the-art organic electrode materials (OEMs) remains unsatisfactory. Herein, we propose a novel dibromotetraoxapentacene (DBTOP) redox center to surpass the redox potential limit of OEMs, achieving ultrahigh discharge plateaus of approximately 4.4 V (vs Li+/Li). As theoretically analyzed, electron delocalization between dioxin active centers and benzene rings as well as electron-withdrawing bromine atoms endows the molecule with a low occupied molecular orbital level by diluting the electron density of dioxin in the whole p-π conjugated skeleton, and the strong π-π interactions among the DBTOP molecules provide a faster electrochemical kinetic pathway. This tetraoxapentacene redox center makes the working voltage of OEMS closer to the high-voltage inorganic electrodes, and its chemical and structural tunability may stimulate the further development of high-voltage organic cathodes.

Abstract
Searching for a suitable electrolyte in a lithium-ion battery is a challenging task. The electrolyte must not only be chemically and mechanically stable, but also be able to transport lithium ions efficiently. Ionic liquid incorporated into a metal-organic framework (IL@MOF) has currently emerged as an interesting class of hybrid material that could offer excellent electrochemical properties. However, the understanding of the mechanism and factors that govern its fast ionic conduction is crucial as well. In this review, the characteristics and potential use of IL@MOF as an electrolyte in a lithium-ion battery are highlighted. The importance of computational methods is emphasized as a comprehensive tool to investigate the atomistic behavior of IL@MOF and its interaction in electrochemical environments.

Abstract
Organic electrode materials free of rare transition metal elements are promising for sustainable, cost-effective, and environmentally benign battery chemistries. However, severe shuttling effect caused by the dissolution of active materials in liquid electrolytes results in fast capacity decay, limiting their practical applications. Here, using a gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) that is in situ formed on Nafion-coated separators, the shuttle reaction of organic electrodes is eliminated while maintaining the electrochemical performance. The synergy of physical confinement by GPE with tunable polymer structure and charge repulsion of the Nafion-coated separator substantially prevents the soluble organic electrode materials with different molecular sizes from shuttling. A soluble small-molecule organic electrode material of 1,3,5-tri(9,10-anthraquinonyl)benzene demonstrates exceptional electrochemical performance with an ultra-long cycle life of 10 000 cycles, excellent rate capability of 203 mAh g-1 at 100 C, and a wide working temperature range from -70 to 100 °C based on the solid-liquid conversion chemistry, which outperforms all previously reported organic cathode materials. The shielding capability of GPE can be designed and tailored toward organic electrodes with different molecular sizes, thus providing a universal resolution to the shuttling effect that all soluble electrode materials suffer.

Abstract
Durable nanostructured cathode materials for efficient all-solid-state Li-S batteries were prepared using a conductive single-walled 3D graphene with a large pore volume as the cathode support material. At high loadings of the active material (50-60 wt %), microscale phase segregation was observed with a conventional cathode support material during the charging/discharging processes but this was suppressed by the confinement of insulating sulfur into the mesopores of the elastic and flexible nanoporous graphene with a large pore volume of 5.3 mL g-1. As such, durable three-phase contact was achieved among the solid electrolyte, insulating sulfur, and the electrically conductive carbon. Consequently, the electrochemical performances of the assembled all-solid-state batteries were significantly improved and feasible under the harsh conditions of operation at 353 K, and improved cycling stability as well as the highest specific capacity of 716 mA h per gram of cathode (4.6 mA h cm-2, 0.2 C) was achieved with high sulfur loading (50 wt %).

Abstract
As flexible all-solid-state batteries are highly safe and light weight, they can be considered as candidates for wearable energy sources. However, their performance needs to be first improved, which can be done by using highly conductive solid-state electrolytes. Herein, we prepare a crystallized and amorphous LLTO electrolyte through magnetron sputtering and investigate the effect of heat treatment on its ionic conductivity. The maximum ionic conductivity of the electrolyte is 9.44 × 10-5 S cm-1 at 140 °C. Electrode fracture after multiple cycles is the chief reason for the failure of solid-state batteries. To improve their cycle performance, we use LiNi0.5Co0.3Mn0.2O2 (NCM) with a volume change rate of 5% as the cathode and LTO with a volume change rate of 2% as the anode. A battery with a high output voltage using an internal series is prepared to enhance its application value. The output voltage of a single-layer NCM/LLTO/LTO battery is 2-2.4 V, while that of a two-layer NCM/LLTO/LTO battery can be 4.8 V in series. Owing to the small volume change rate of the electrode, the battery can be cycled up to 500 times, and the capacity of the battery remains at 89.2% of the initial state even after bending.

Abstract
The increasing demand for higher-energy-density batteries driven by advancements in electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and portable electronic devices necessitates the development of alternative anode materials with a specific capacity beyond that of traditional graphite anodes. Here, the state-of-the-art developments made in the rational design of Si-based electrodes and their progression toward practical application are presented. First, a comprehensive overview of fundamental electrochemistry and selected critical challenges is given, including their large volume expansion, unstable solid electrolyte interface (SEI) growth, low initial Coulombic efficiency, low areal capacity, and safety issues. Second, the principles of potential solutions including nanoarchitectured construction, surface/interface engineering, novel binder and electrolyte design, and designing the whole electrode for stability are discussed in detail. Third, applications for Si-based anodes beyond LIBs are highlighted, specifically noting their promise in configurations of Li-S batteries and all-solid-state batteries. Fourth, the electrochemical reaction process, structural evolution, and degradation mechanisms are systematically investigated by advanced in situ and operando characterizations. Finally, the future trends and perspectives with an emphasis on commercialization of Si-based electrodes are provided. Si-based anode materials will be key in helping keep up with the demands for higher energy density in the coming decades.

Abstract
Zn batteries are usually considered as safe aqueous systems that are promising for flexible batteries. On the other hand, any liquids, including water, being encapsulated in a deformable battery may result in problems. Developing completely liquid-free all-solid-state Zn batteries needs high-quality solid-state electrolytes (SSEs). Herein, we demonstrate in situ polymerized amorphous solid poly(1,3-dioxolane) electrolytes, which show high Zn ion conductivity of 19.6 mS cm-1 at room temperature, low interfacial impedance, highly reversible Zn plating/stripping over 1800 h cycles, uniform and dendrite-free Zn deposition, and non-dry properties. The in-plane interdigital-structure device with the electrolyte completely exposed to the open atmosphere can be operated stably for over 30 days almost without weight loss or electrochemical performance decay. Furthermore, the sandwich-structure device can normally operate over 40 min under exposure to fire. Meanwhile, the interfacial impedance and the capacity using in situ-formed solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) remain almost unchanged after various bending tests, a key criterion for flexible/wearable devices. Our study demonstrates an approach for SSEs that fulfill the requirement of no liquid and mechanical robustness for practical solid-state Zn batteries.

Abstract
All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) have attracted enormous attention as one of the critical future technologies for safe and high energy batteries. With the emergence of several highly conductive solid electrolytes in recent years, the bottleneck is no longer Li-ion diffusion within the electrolyte. Instead, many ASSBs are limited by their low Coulombic efficiency, poor power performance, and short cycling life due to the high resistance at the interfaces within ASSBs. Because of the diverse chemical/physical/mechanical properties of various solid components in ASSBs as well as the nature of solid-solid contact, many types of interfaces are present in ASSBs. These include loose physical contact, grain boundaries, and chemical and electrochemical reactions to name a few. All of these contribute to increasing resistance at the interface. Here, we present the distinctive features of the typical interfaces and interphases in ASSBs and summarize the recent work on identifying, probing, understanding, and engineering them. We highlight the complicated, but important, characteristics of interphases, namely the composition, distribution, and electronic and ionic properties of the cathode-electrolyte and electrolyte-anode interfaces; understanding these properties is the key to designing a stable interface. In addition, conformal coatings to prevent side reactions and their selection criteria are reviewed. We emphasize the significant role of the mechanical behavior of the interfaces as well as the mechanical properties of all ASSB components, especially when the soft Li metal anode is used under constant stack pressure. Finally, we provide full-scale (energy, spatial, and temporal) characterization methods to explore, diagnose, and understand the dynamic and buried interfaces and interphases. Thorough and in-depth understanding on the complex interfaces and interphases is essential to make a practical high-energy ASSB.

Abstract
Intensive energy demand urges state-of-the-art rechargeable batteries. Rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) are promising candidates with suitable cathode materials. Owing to high abundance of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen and rich chemistry of organics (structural diversity and flexibility), small organic molecules are good choices as the electrode materials for AIB. Herein, a series of small-molecule quinone derivatives (SMQD) as cathode materials for AIB were investigated. Nonetheless, dissolution of small organic molecules into liquid electrolytes remains a fundamental challenge. To nullify the dissolution problem effectively, 1,4-benzoquinone was integrated with four bulky phthalimide groups to form 2,3,5,6-tetraphthalimido-1,4-benzoquinone (TPB) as the cathode materials and assembled to be the AI/TPB cell. As a result, the Al/TPB cell delivered capacity as high as 175 mA h/g over 250 cycles in the urea electrolyte system. Theoretical studies have also been carried out to reveal and understand the storage mechanism of the TPB electrode.

Abstract
Advances in lithium battery technologies necessitate improved energy densities, long cycle lives, fast charging, safe operation, and environmentally friendly components. This study concerns lithium-organic batteries comprising bioinspired poly(4-vinyl catechol) (P4VC) cathode materials and single-ion conducting polymer nanoparticle electrolytes. The controlled synthesis of P4VC results in a two-step redox reaction with voltage plateaus at around 3.1 and 3.5 V, as well as a high initial specific capacity of 352 mAh g-1 . The use of single-ion nanoparticle electrolytes enables high electrochemical stabilities up to 5.5 V, a high lithium transference number of 0.99, high ionic conductivities, ranging from 0.2×10-3 to 10-3 S cm-1 , and stable storage moduli of >10 MPa at 25-90 °C. Lithium cells can deliver 165 mAh g-1 at 39.7 mA g-1 for 100 cycles and stable specific capacities of >100 mAh g-1 at a high current density of 794 mA g-1 for 500 cycles. As the first successful demonstration of solid-state single-ion polymer electrolytes in environmentally benign and cost-effective lithium-organic batteries, this work establishes a future research avenue for advancing lithium battery technologies.

Abstract
Conjugated carbonyl compounds have received much attention as cathode materials for developing green lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, their high dissolution and poor electronic conductivity in organic electrolyte restrict their further application. Herein, a self-polymerized nitro-substituted conjugated carbonyl compound (2,7-dinitropyrene-4,5,9,10-tetraone, PT-2 NO2 ) is applied as a high-performance cathode material for LIBs. PT-2 NO2 exhibits a high reversible capacity of 153.9 mAh g-1 at 50 mA g-1 after 120 cycles, which is higher than that of other substituted compounds. Detailed characterization and theoretical calculations have testified that PT-2 NO2 is transformed into an azo polymer through an irreversible reductive coupling reaction in the first discharge process, and then carbonyl and azo groups reversibly react with Li ions in subsequent cycles. In addition, this azo polymer is also synthesized and applied as the electrode material, which shows similar electrochemical performance to PT-2 NO2 but with higher initial coulombic efficiency. Thus, this work provides a simple but effectively way to construct organic cathode materials with multiple redox sites for green and high-performance LIBs.

Abstract
Organic and polymer materials have been extensively investigated as electrode materials for rechargeable batteries because of the low cost, abundance, environmental benignity, and high sustainability. To date, organic electrode materials have been applied in a large variety of energy storage devices, including nonaqueous Li-ion, Na-ion, K-ion, dual-ion, multivalent-metal, aqueous, all-solid-state, and redox flow batteries, because of the universal properties of organic electrode materials. Moreover, some organic materials enable the batteries to be operated in the extreme conditions, such as a wide temperature range (-70 to 150 °C), a wide pH range, and in the presence of O2. As a guidance for the research in organic batteries, this Review focuses on the reaction mechanisms and applications of organic electrode materials. Six categories of reaction mechanisms and the applications of organic and polymer materials in various rechargeable batteries are discussed to provide an overview of the state-of-the-art organic batteries.

Abstract
Due to their high ionic conductivity and adeciduate mechanical features for lamination, sulfide composites have received increasing attention as solid electrolyte in all-solid-state batteries. Their smaller electronegativity and binding energy to Li ions and bigger atomic radius provide high ionic conductivity and make them attractive for practical applications. In recent years, noticeable efforts have been made to develop high-performance sulfide solid-state electrolytes. However, sulfide solid-state electrolytes still face numerous challenges including: 1) the need for a higher stability voltage window, 2) a better electrode-electrolyte interface and air stability, and 3) a cost-effective approach for large-scale manufacturing. Herein, a comprehensive update on the properties (structural and chemical), synthesis of sulfide solid-state electrolytes, and the development of sulfide-based all-solid-state batteries is provided, including electrochemical and chemical stability, interface stabilization, and their applications in high performance and safe energy storage.

Abstract
The lithium-rich organic cathodes are undoubtedly important for fabricating lithium-ion (Li-ion) full batteries. Currently, very few lithium-rich organic cathodes have been reported for their O2-sensitive characteristics. In this article, we initially propose a new electrochemical method to in situ synthesize a novel lithium-rich organic cathode, namely lithium anthracene-9,10-bis[2-benzene-1,4-bis(olate)] (ABB4OLi, CT = 256 mA h g-1), from its phenol precursor of anthracene-9,10-bis(2-benzene-1,4-diol). The addition of anthracene moiety as the linking bridge is to increase the molecular weight and simultaneously enhance the electronic conductivity for the designed organic molecule (ABB4OLi). In Li-ion half cells, ABB4OLi could deliver average specific capacities of 194 mA h g-1 during 250 cycles (50 mA g-1) and 100 mA h g-1 during 400 cycles (2 A g-1). In the all-organic Li-ion full cells with the working voltage above 1 V, the ABB4OLi electrode could realize the average capacities of 70 mA h g-1cathode during 200 cycles (50 mA g-1). This work has forwarded a significant step for the development of organic Li-ion full batteries.

Abstract
The use of redox-active organic materials in rechargeable batteries has the potential to transform the field by enabling lightweight, flexible, green batteries while replacing lithium with sodium would mitigate the limited supplies and high cost of lithium. Herein, we report the first use of highly porous azo-linked polymers (ALPs) as a new redox-active electrode material for rechargeable sodium-ion batteries. ALPs are highly cross-linked polymers and therefore eliminate the solubility issue of organic electrodes in common electrolytes, which is prominent in small organic molecules and leads to fast capacity fading. Moreover, the high surface area coupled with the π-conjugated microporous nature of ALPs facilitates electrolyte adsorption in the pores and assists in fast ionic transport and charge transfer rates. An average specific capacity of 170 mA h g-1 at 0.3 C rate was attained while maintaining 96% Coulombic efficiency over 150 charge/discharge cycles.

Abstract
Recent works into sulfide-type solid electrolyte materials have attracted much attention among the battery community. Specifically, the oxidative decomposition of phosphorus and sulfur based solid state electrolyte has been considered one of the main hurdles towards practical application. Here we demonstrate that this phenomenon can be leveraged when lithium thiophosphate is applied as an electrochemically “switched-on” functional redox mediator-generator for the activation of commercial bulk lithium sulfide at up to 70 wt.% lithium sulfide electrode content. X-ray adsorption near-edge spectroscopy coupled with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and Raman indicate a catalytic effect of generated redox mediators on the first charge of lithium sulfide. In contrast to pre-solvated redox mediator species, this design decouples the lithium sulfide activation process from the constraints of low electrolyte content cell operation stemming from pre-solvated redox mediators. Reasonable performance is demonstrated at strict testing conditions. The decomposition of solid state electrolyte material has been well-known in the literature. Here the authors report that the same decomposition process can be leveraged to act as a source of redox mediator that is only activated at certain voltages for application in Li2S based cathodes.

Abstract
Lithium (Li) metal-based battery is among the most promising candidates for next-generation rechargeable high-energy-density batteries. Carbon materials are strongly considered as the host of Li metal to relieve the powdery/dendritic Li formation and large volume change during repeated cycles. Herein, we describe the formation of a thin lithiophilic LiC6 layer between carbon fibers (CFs) and metallic Li in Li/CF composite anode obtained through a one-step rolling method. An electron deviation from Li to carbon elevates the negativity of carbon atoms after Li intercalation as LiC6 , which renders stronger binding between carbon framework and Li ions. The Li/CF | Li/CF batteries can operate for more than 90 h with a small polarization voltage of 120 mV at 50% discharge depth. The Li/CF | sulfur pouch cell exhibits a high discharge capacity of 3.25 mAh cm-2 and a large capacity retention rate of 98% after 100 cycles at 0.1 C. It is demonstrated that the as-obtained Li/CF composite anode with lithiophilic LiC6 layers can effectively alleviate volume expansion and hinder dendritic and powdery morphology of Li deposits. This work sheds fresh light on the role of interfacial layers between host structure and Li metal in composite anode for long-lifespan working batteries.
