The carbon-coated LiMnFePO@LiLaTiO nanorod composites (denoted as C/LMFP@LLTO) have been successfully obtained according to a common hydrothermal synthesis following a post-calcination treatment. The morphology and particle size of LiMnFePO (denoted as LMFP) are not changed by the coating. All electrode materials exhibit nanorod morphology; they are 100-200 nm in length and 50-100 nm in width. The LiLaTiO (denoted as LLTO) coating can facilitate the charge transfer to enhance lithiation/delithiation kinetics, leading to an excellent rate performance and cycle stability of an as-obtained C/LMFP@LLTO electrode material. The reversible discharge capacities of C/LMFP@LLTO (3 wt %) at 0.05 and 5 C are 146 and 131.3 mA h g, respectively. After 100 cycles, C/LMFP@LLTO (3 wt %) exhibits an outstanding capacity of 106.4 mA h g with an 81% capacity retention rate at 5 C, indicating an excellent reversible capacity and good cycle capacity. Therefore, it can be considered that LLTO coating is a prospective pathway to exploit the electrochemical performances of C/LMFP.

The NASICON-type NaV(PO) (NVP) is recognized as a potential cathode material for Na-ion batteries (SIBs). Nevertheless, its inherent small electronic conductivity induces limited cycling stability and rate performance. Carbon coating, particularly N-doped carbon, has been identified as an effective strategy to address these challenges.

In an era where chemical synthesis of nanomaterial is accounting for the generation of toxic wastes, leading to nanotoxicity, the present work focuses on the extraction of carbon nanodots from available natural sources such as turmeric smoke. The extracted carbon nanodots were characterized and their physical and chemical attributes were confirmed. The antibacterial property of the isolated carbon nanodots was tested against coliforms and oral bacteria.

Nevertheless, its practical use is limited by poor electrochemical performance and complicated electrode fabrication processes. To address these issues, we propose a new anode design comprising an intermediate NiO nanoarray layer and a carbon coating layer grown directly on a three-dimensional (3D) conductive nickel foam substrate, designated as C@NiO@Ni foam.

2D MoC i-MXene is highly promising for electrochemical applications. Here, a synthetic strategy is reported, enabling the uniform distribution of carbon-coated CoNi (CoNi@C) nanoparticles on the vacancy-ordered MoC i-MXene nanosheets, thereby fully exposing the active sites of CoNi@C. First, five novel Ga-containing (MoR)GaC (R = Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Lu) i-MAX phases are synthesized as the precursor and found to be crystallized into Cmcm structure, followed by hydrothermal etching and delamination.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries stand out as highly promising energy storage systems because of their superior theoretical capacity and the affordability of sulfur as an active material. However, their inherent drawbacks have hindered the commercialization of Li-S batteries. Of these, the polysulfide shuttle effect is one of the most critical issues, leading to the rapid decline in battery capacity.
