Sodium-ion batteries, as an attractive option for large-scale energy storage, still face the problems of low energy density and unsatisfactory rate performance. Among various cathodes, the tunnel-type NaMnO with large S-shaped Na transport tunnels is one of the promising cathode materials for fast and robust sodium-ion storage, yet suffering from Mn dissolution and structural collapse. Herein, a Na-rich layered oxide NaTiO is first constructed as a multifunctional coating layer on the surface of the NaMnO nanorod.
