The performance of the samples was characterized by the analysis methods of X-ray diffraction（XRD）, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy（FTIR）, and transmission electron microscopy（TEM） as well as conductivity measurement. Compared with those sintered at other temperatures, the NASICON material sintered at 900 ℃ had the best crystalline structure and higher conductivity.展开更多

In this study, an orthorhombic Na super ionic conductor structural Fe_(2)(MoO_(4))_(3) nanosheet with amorphous-crystalline core-shell alignment was synthesized using a facile low-temperature water-vapor-assisted solid-state reaction and applied as a cathode material for SIBs. The obtained material has a well-defined three-dimensional stacking structure, and exhibits a high specific capacity of 87.8 mAh·g^(−1) at a current density of 1 C = 91 mA·g^(−1) after 1,000 cycles, which is due to the considerable contribution of extra surface-related reaction such as the pseudo-capacitive process. This material shows significantly improved cycling and rated behavior as well as enhanced performance under high- and low-temperature conditions, as compared to the same materials prepared by the conventional high-temperature solid-state reaction. This enhancement is explained by the unique morphology in combination with the improved kinetics of the electrochemical reaction due to its lower charge transfer resistance and higher sodium ion conductivity.展开更多

In this work, we report a simple approach to synthesize quasi-inverse opal structural NASICON/N-doped carbon for the first time by a delicate one-pot solution-freeze drying-calcination process, aiming at fostering the overall electrochemical performance. Especially, the quasi-inverse opal structural Na_(3)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(3)/N-C(Q-NVP/N-C) displayed continuous pores, which provides interconnected channels for electrolyte permeation and abundant contacting interfaces between electrolyte and materials, resulting in faster kinetics of redox reaction and higher proportion of capacitive behavior.As a cathode material for sodium-ion batteries, the Q-NVP/N-C exhibits high specific capacity of 115 mAh·g^(-1) at 1C, still 61 mAh·g^(-1) at ultra-high current density of 100C,and a specific capacity of 89.7mAh·g^(-1) after 2000 cycles at 20C.This work displays the general validity of preparation method for not only Q-NVP/N-C,but also Na_(3)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(3),which provides a prospect for delicate synthesis of NASICON materials with excellent electrochemical performance.展开更多
