TL;DR: The lithium storage properties of graphene nanosheet (GNS) materials as high capacity anode materials for rechargeable lithium secondary batteries (LIB) were investigated and the specific capacity of GNS was found to be 540 mAh/g, which is much larger than that of graphite, and this was increased by the incorporation of macromolecules of CNT and C60 to the GNS.

TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of organic electrode materials, including their fundamental knowledge, development history and perspective applications, is provided. And the authors elaborate in detail various organics with different structures, including conducting polymers, organodisulfides, thioethers, nitroxyl radical polymers and conjugated carbonyl compounds.

TL;DR: In this paper, a metal-organic framework (MOF)-based separator was proposed to mitigate the shuttling problem in lithium-sulfur batteries, which selectively sieves Li+ ions while efficiently suppressing undesired polysulfides migrating to the anode side.

TL;DR: An in situ polymerization restriction method is reported for the synthesis of a nano-sized LiFePO4/carbon composite with a core–shell structure from Fe salts, considered to be one of the most promising cathode materials for the next generation of lithium batteries.

TL;DR: The recent development of carbon coating techniques in lithium-ion batteries is discussed with detailed examples of typical cathode and anode materials and the limitation of current technology and future perspective of the new concept of "hybrid coating" are pointed out.
