It is the first time that metallasilsesquioxanes are introduced into the synthesis of porous carbon nanosheets. Lithium hepta(i-butyl)silsesquioxane trisilanolate is a multifunctional precursor for both carbon sources and templates with different dimensions.
Heteroatom doped carbon materials have recently demonstrated an outstanding sodium storage ability and are being considered as the most promising candidates as anodes for sodium ion batteries.
A series of Li-CO2 battery cathode materials are reported based on metal-organic frameworks with dual-metal sites containing metalloporphyrin and metal-coordinated pyrazole. The MnTPzP-Mn demonstrates a low voltage hysteresis of 1.05...
Direct writing of a fluorine-doped curved carbon nano-onion film on a Cu foil renders the Li metal anode with long cycle life, high Li-plating capacity, low-voltage hysteresis, and improved high current performance.
The layered structure assisted efficient production of 2D carbon nanosheets from natural chitin is reported, demonstrating excellent performance in sodium storage.
