Bismuth-based mixed-anion compounds for anode materials in rechargeable batteries

Prashant Kumar et al.

Summary: This article reports a facile solvothermal synthesis approach for controlling the chemical composition in ternary Bi-S-I systems by simply controlling the sulfide concentration. The application of these bismuth-based ternary mixed-anion compounds as high capacity anode materials in rechargeable batteries is demonstrated. Cells utilizing Bi13S18I2 achieved an initial capacity value of 807 mA h g(-1), while those with BiSI/Bi13S18I2 reached a value of 1087 mA h g(-1) in lithium-ion battery systems.

Emerging Era of Electrolyte Solvation Structure and Interfacial Model in Batteries

Haoran Cheng et al.

Summary: Recent research has shown that not only the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer but also the metal-ion solvation structure and interfacial model in the electrolyte significantly affect the performance of lithium-ion batteries. In this paper, the authors summarize recent studies on the importance of electrolyte solvation structure, develop a quantitative model, and propose an interfacial model to understand the electrode's performance. These findings may lead to a new era beyond the SEI and have implications for the design and improvement of LIBs.
