A new honeycomb-like nano-Bi/N-doped C composite is synthesized through simple physical blending followed by pyrolysis, using polyvinylpyrrolidone and bismuth nitrate pentahydrate as starting materials. In the synthesized composite, the particle sizes of Bi nanospheres are concentrated in 4–16 nm, and most of them are embedded in N-doped C. When used as an anode for sodium-ion batteries, it displays a stable reversible capacity of around 285 mAh g–1 at 5 A g–1. After the electrode was cycled for 20 000 times, the capacity remained at 283 mAh g–1, with 88.4% capacity retention relative to the second discharge capacity (320 mAh g–1). The honeycomb-like nano-Bi/N-doped C anode presents an interface and charge transfer resistance of less than 2 Ω and fast Na+ diffusion coefficients of around 10–6 cm2 s–1. Full cells composed of the honeycomb-like nano-Bi/N-doped C anode and the sodium vanadium phosphate/reduced graphene oxide cathode exhibit high energy density and excellent cycle performance. This work demonstrates the feasibility of synthesizing high-performance Bi/C composites through facile and scalable methods using inexpensive starting materials.

“…11,27,28 The combination of carbon skeletons within different dimensions can not only elastically prevent the inflation and ensure the structural integrity but also immensely improve the conductivity and endow high-rate properties, which is an effective and general approach to improve the performance of conversion and alloying materials. 29,30 Therefore, we believe that, if highly active heterojunctions are integrated with appropriately designed dual-carbon skeletons, a high-performance anode material and a novel composite structure for SIBs will be obtained.…”

Transition metal sulfides and oxides with high theoretical capacities have been regarded as promising anode candidates for a sodium-ion battery (SIB); however, they have critical issues including sluggish electrochemical kinetics and poor long-term stability. Herein, a dual carbon design strategy is proposed to integrate with highly active heterojunctions to overcome the above issues. In this new design, CoS2/CoO hollow dodecahedron heterojunctions are sandwiched between open framework carbon-spheres (OFCs) and a reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanomembrane (OFC@CoS2/CoO@rGO). The CoS2/CoO heterojunctions effectively promote electron transfer on their surface and provide more electrochemical active sites through their hierarchical hollow structures assembled by nanodots. Meanwhile, the dual-carbon framework forms a highly conductive network that enables a better rate capability. More importantly, the dual carbon can greatly buffer volume expansion and stable reaction interfaces of electrode material during the charge/discharge process. Benefitting from their synergistical effects, the OFC@CoS2/CoO@rGO electrode achieves a high reversible capacity of 460 mAh g–1 at 0.05 A g–1 and still maintains 205.3 mAh g–1 even when current density is increased by 200 times when used as an anode material for SIBs. Their cycling property is also remarkable with a maintained capacity of 161 mAh g–1 after 3500 charging/discharging cycles at a high current density of 1 A g–1. The dual-carbon strategy is demonstrated to be effective for enhanced reaction kinetics and long-term cycling property, providing siginificant guidance for preparing other high-performance electrode materials.
