The poor cycling stability and rate performance of transition metal selenides (TMSs) are caused by their intrinsic low conductivity and poor structural stability, which hinders their application in potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). To address this issue, encapsulating TMSs within carbon nanoshells is considered a viable strategy. However, due to the lack and uncontrollability of internal void space, this structure cannot effectively mitigate the volume expansion induced by large K, resulting in unsatisfactory electrochemical performance.

Fluorides are viewed as promising conversion-type Li-ion battery cathodes to meet the desired high energy density. FeOF is a typical member of conversion-type fluorides, but its major drawback is sluggish kinetics upon deep discharge. Herein, a heterostructured FeOF-MXene composite (FeOF-MX) is demonstrated to overcome this limitation.

The means of structural hybridization such as heterojunction construction and carbon-coating engineering for facilitating charge transfer and electron transport are considered viable strategies to address the challenges associated with the low rate capability and poor cycling stability of sulfide-based anodes in potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). Motivated by these concepts, we have successfully prepared a hydrangea-like bimetallic sulfide heterostructure encapsulated in nitrogen-doped carbon (FMS@NC) using a simple solvothermal method, followed by poly-dopamine wrapping and a one-step sulfidation/carbonization process. When served as an anode for PIBs, this FMS@NC demonstrates a high specific capacity (585 mAh g at 0.

Metallic sulfides are currently considered as ideal anode materials for potassium-ion batteries by virtue of their high specific capacities. However, their low intrinsic electronic conductivity, large volume variation and dissolution of polysulfides in electrochemical reactions hinder their further development toward practical applications. Here, we propose an effective structural design strategy by encapsulating CoS/SnS in sulfur-doped carbon layers, in which internal voids are created to relieve the strain in the CoS/SnS core, while the sulfur-doped carbon layer serves to improve the electron transport and inhibit the dissolution of polysulfides.

Article Synopsis
  • Rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries are gaining popularity due to their high capacity, safety, and low cost from using aluminum, but their progress has been slowed by the need for better positive electrodes.
  • Researchers have developed a positive electrode made from ternary metal oxides, specifically Fe(MoO), which has excellent performance and stability, maintaining a discharge voltage near 1.9 V.
  • This positive electrode demonstrates impressive capacity at various rates and remarkable durability over 2000 cycles, while also revealing new insights into the mechanism of aluminum storage within the battery.

Objective: Deep learning algorithms were used to develop a model for predicting the staging and grading of renal clear cell carcinoma to inform clinicians' treatment plans.

Methods: Clinical and pathological information was collected from 878 patients diagnosed with renal clear cell carcinoma in the Department of Urology, Peking University First Hospital. The patients were randomly assigned to the test set (n = 702) or the verification set (n = 176).

Owing to their low cost and abundant reserves relative to conventional lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), potassium-ion batteries (PIBs), and aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) have shown appealing potential for electrochemical energy storage, but progress so far has been limited by the lack of suitable electrode materials. In this work, we demonstrated a facile strategy to achieve highly reversible potassium and aluminum ions storage in strongly coupled nanosized MoSe@carbon matrix, induced through an ion complexation strategy. We present a broad range of electrochemical characterization of the synthesized product that exhibits high specific capacities, good rate capability, and excellent cycling stability toward PIBs and AIBs.
