This study presents a new fast-charging anode for batteries, using rock-salt lithium vanadium oxide and a stepwise lattice engineering strategy. By pre-inserting polyaniline (PANI) molecules and doping with Na+ ions, the lattice structure is tailored to enhance Li-ion diffusion kinetics. Experimental results show that the material exhibits high capacity retention and cycling endurance under high cycles and a wide temperature range.
Electrode exploration with the appropriate equilibrium voltage and facile cation diffusion kinetics is the key enabler towards realizing the extreme power output of the battery formats. With the aid of the stepwise lattice tailoring, herein, we present an alternative fast-charging anode of the rock-salt lithium vanadium oxide. Spe-cifically, the pre-insertion of polyaniline (PANI) molecules unlocks the basal plane of the layered V2O5 precursor, while subsequent Na+ doping at the octahedral sites could stabilize the lattice breathing and mitigate Li-ion diffusion barrier along the tetrahedron-octahedron-tetrahedron pathway, as confirmed by the operando X-ray diffraction and kinetics simulation. The Na0.6Li2.4V2O5@PANI//LiFePO4 full cell prototype (3 mAh cm-2) ex-hibits 82% capacity retention at 20 C for 2000 cycles, as well as the cycling endurance within a wider tem-perature range of 0-60 degrees C. This stepwise lattice engineering strategy opens a fresh impetus of the electrode innovations for the high-power energy storage devices.
