Exploring novel electrode materials is critical for the development of a next-generation rechargeable magnesium battery with high volumetric capacity. Here, we showed that a distinct amorphous molybdenum sulfide, being a coordination polymer of disulfide-bridged (Mo3S11) clusters, has great potential as a rechargeable magnesium battery cathode. This material provided good reversible capacity, attributed to its unique structure with high flexibility and capability of deformation upon Mg insertion. Free-terminal disulfide moiety may act as the active site for reversible insertion and extraction of magnesium.

Metal chalcogenide-based cathodes are crucial for the development of rechargeable magnesium batteries, yet the strong electrostatic interactions of Mg result in slow ion transport and high polarization. The Mg/Li hybrid battery holds promise for enhancing the energy storage capability. Herein, we establish a system that utilizes (Co,Cu)Se/CoSe heterostructure grown on carbon cloth as the cathode and APC-LiCl as a dual-salt electrolyte to achieve high reversible capacity, enhanced cyclic stability, and impressive rate performance.

Context: In recent years, rechargeable batteries have received considerable attention as a way to improve energy storage efficiency. Anodic (negative) electrodes based on Janus two-dimensional (2D) monolayers are among the most promising candidates. In this effort, the adsorption and diffusion of these Li, Na, and Mg ions on and through Janus 2D-TiSSe as anodic material was investigated by means of periodic DFT-D calculations.

Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs), with Cu as positive electrode current collector (CC), typically display a gradual capacity increase with cycling. Whereas the origin of this was suggested in gradual active material electro-activation, the fact that this is prevalent in many positive electrode material systems remains unexplained. Herein, we elucidate the underlying mechanism through a series of multiscale joint operando X-ray characterizations, including operando synchrotron X-ray diffraction and imaging technology.

Rechargeable magnesium batteries are regarded as a promising multi-valent battery system for low-cost and sustainable energy storage applications. Boron-based organic magnesium salts with terminal substituent fluorinated anions (Mg[B(OR)], R=fluorinated alkyl) have exhibited impressive electrochemical stability and oxidative stability. Nevertheless, their deployment is hindered by the complicated synthesis routes and the surface passivation of Mg metal anode.
