“…More recently, sodium ion batteries (SIBs) have also attracted much attention because of the abundant sodium resource and similar electrochemical properties with lithium . Graphite, the firstly commercial anode material in LIBs is limited by its relatively low theoretical capacity,, and unfortunately is unsuitable for SIBs due to the larger ionic radius of sodium . Therefore, there is still a challenge to search new anode materials for both LIBs and SIBs.…”

Cu2S is considered as a promising electrode material for lithium‐ion and sodium‐ion batteries owing to its flat charge‐discharge plateau as well as the abundant reserves. However, serious capacity fading and formation of polysulfides during electrochemical process restrict its practical application. In this work, a new type of Cu2S@N, S dual‐doped carbon matrix (Cu2S@NSCm) hybrid is synthesized through a simple in‐situ polymerization process and subsequent carbonization process. Due to the N, S dual‐doped carbon matrix, which can buffer the volume change, restrain the dissolution of polysulfide and enhance the electron conductivity during electrochemical process, the hybrid demonstrates excellent electrochemical performance. The Cu2S@NSCm hybrid exhibits a reversible capacity of 560.1 mAh g−1 at a current density of 1000 mA g−1 after 550 cycles when used in lithium‐ion batteries, which is among the best performance for Cu2S based anode materials. Moreover, a capacity of 182.3 mAh g−1 is obtained after 50 cycles when used as an anode material in sodium ion batteries, which is much better than the pure Cu2S.

attention. [9][10][11] AZIBs are considered as one of the most ideal candidates for largescale energy storage owing to their following advantages:i) The excellent properties of zinc: According the data in Table 1, the abundance of zinc in the earth's crust is 79 ppm, and ranks fourth in the world metal production, so zinc has a low market price. Zn metal anode has good electrical conductivity (5.91 µΩ cm), high volumetric energy density (5851 mAh cm −3 ), high theoretical capacity (819 mAh g −1 ), and relatively low redox potential (−0.76 V vs standard hydrogen electrode) which is more suitable in aqueous solution. In addition, multivalent zinc ion can transfer two electrons to facilitate more energy storage than the univalent batteries. [12] At the same time, the ionic radius of zinc ions is 0.74 Å, which is smaller than that of sodium ions (1.02 Å) and close to that of lithium ions (0.69 Å). Moreover, zinc is the essential trace element for human body. [9] In brief, Zn has the superiorities of low cost, low-toxicity, abundant resource, easily recycle, and environmental friendliness.ii) The higher ionic conductivity and safety of aqueous electrolytes: The aqueous electrolytes offer two orders of higher magnitude ionic conductivities (≈1 S cm −1 ) than that of organic electrolytes (≈10 −2 -10 −3 S cm −1 ), so aqueous battery usually has higher power density. [3,13] Meanwhile, the organic electrolytes are usually toxic and flammable, while the aqueous electrolytes are nontoxic and safe, which can mitigate the environmental disruption and recycling costs. iii) The facile assembly process: AZIBs can be assembled in the air condition owing to the stability of zinc anode and aqueous electrolyte. Compared with the batteries assembled in the inert-gas glove box, the manufacturing costs of ZIBs are greatly reduced. The facile manufacture and recycling of AZIBs is an important advantage in the large-scale storage applications.Combining the above advantages, low-cost, safe, and green next-generation AZIBs are suitable specifically for large-scale stationary storage applications. So far, AZIBs are still at the infancy stage. The related researches mainly focused on cathode materials. We count the publication numbers of the reported cathodes for AZIBs in the period from 2012 to February 2019 (1, Supporting Information). As illustrated in Figure 1a, the number of annual publications on cathodes for AZIBs continues to increase rapidly in the recent years. However, in the preliminary stage, Electrochemical energy storage devices will definitely play a vital role in the future energy landscape of the world. The innovation of electrode materials is a key task for the breakthrough of present bottleneck faced by electrochemical energy storage devices. Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) are gaining rapid attention, and they offer tremendous opportunities to explore the low-cost, safe, and next-generation green batteries for large-scale stationary storage applications. In this review, the authors aim to give a comprehensive overview ...

“…[5] However, there are still tremendous challenges among the processes of energy conversion and storage, such as low efficiency, uncontrollable conditions, lack of appropriate catalyst and so on. [12,13] Fuel cells, Li-ion batteries, supercapacitors, solar cells and electrolytic cells are all significant electrochemical devices used for transforming or storing energy, [14][15][16] which involve different types of typical half reactions, such as the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO 2 RR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), etc. [10,11] With the rapid development of the economy and chemical industry, clean energy plays an increasing important role in our society.…”

Pristine metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) and their composites, which have received wide attention in recent years, especially in the field of electrocatalysis, are emerging as distinctive electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and many other electrochemical redox reactions. In this review, the attention is focused on the development of monometallic‐MOFs and multimetallic‐MOFs (including bimetallic‐MOFs and trimetallic‐MOFs) for electrocatalysis in recent years, including their design, catalytic performance and strategies for activity improvement. Finally, major challenges in utilizing pristine MOFs and their composites for electrocatalysis are highlighted.
