TL;DR: A new surface-modification strategy is developed to protect the graphite cathode from the anion salvation effect and the deposition derived from electrolyte decomposition by generating an artificial solid electrolyte interphase (SEI).

TL;DR: Working mechanism analyses reveal that the plateau region is the rate-determining step for HCP with a lower electrochemical reaction kinetics, which can be significantly improved in ether electrolyte.

TL;DR: It is shown that the prepared P-FeS@C nanohybrid exhibits superior Na-storage properties especially high rate capability in half cells, and can deliver reversible capacities of 555.1 mA h g-1 at 0.2 A g- 1 over 150 cycles and about 60.4 mAh g-2 over 60 cycles, an ultrahigh current density even higher than that of the capacitor test.

TL;DR: In this paper, an efficient method is proposed to recycle the spent LiMn2O4 and directly reuse it as the cathode of SIBs, where the phase transition of the spinel into layered structure caused by the Li+/Na+ (de)insertion was investigated.

TL;DR: This kind of nanoarray structure, in which a carbon-coated FeP nanorod array is vertically grown on a conductive reduced graphene oxide (G) network, has been successfully prepared via a scalable strategy and can also be extended to other electrode materials for various energy storage systems.
