TL;DR: The “cationic potential” is introduced that captures the key interactions of layered materials and makes it possible to predict the stacking structures and is demonstrated through the rational design and preparation of layered electrode materials with improved performance.

TL;DR: This Review intends to provide a comprehensive summary on the progress of nanostructured anode materials for NIBs, where representative examples and corresponding storage mechanisms are discussed and the potential directions to obtain high-performance anodematerials are proposed.

TL;DR: This work has explored the maximum Na content in P2-type layered oxides and discovered that the high-content Na in the host enhances the structural stability and promotes the oxidation of low-valent cations to their high oxidation states (in this case Ni2+).

TL;DR: A rationally designed amide-based electrolyte based on the desired interface products achieves a high average Coulombic efficiency during cycling, resulting in an outstanding capacity retention with a 3.5 mAh cm−2 high-mass-loaded LiNi0.8Co0.1O2 cathode.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel carbon anode made from charcoal with a high capacity of ∼400µmµg−1 was reported, wherein about 85% of its total capacity is derived from the long plateau region below ∼ 0.1µv.
