文摘Due to the advantages of aluminum in abundance in the earth’s crust and safety,how to exploit these advantages to develop high-performance rechargeable aluminum batteries to replace traditional batteries has become an urgent issue.The key to solving this problem is to find suitable materials as cathode for aluminum batteries.Here,we propose a strategy in which Ti_(3)C_(2)(MXene)is used as a loaded structure for the organic anthraquinone derivative Benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b’]dithiophene-4,8-dione(BDTO).This strategy enables the self-stacking of monolayer MXene into a layered structure while embedding organics into it.The unique structure enables efficient and reversible intercalation/deintercalation of Al^(3+).At the same time,it exhibits excellent electrochemical performance,and its reversible capacity reaches229.8 mAh g^(-1).Moreover,it can still maintain a capacity of 134.9 mAh g^(-1)after 500 cycles.In addition.compared with BDTO,the rate performance of MXene@BDTO has also been greatly improved.Meanwhile,this unique layered structure also brings better electro nic co nductivity and ionic diffusion coefficient.We also demonstrate that the battery mechanism is a reaction between three C=O and one Al^(3+) through multiple characterization methods and density functional calculations(DFT).The advantages of MXene@BDTO provide a better research basis for the study of rechargeable Aluminum-Organic batteries,and provide a good idea to explore the development of Aluminum-Organic batteries.
