We, for the first time, demonstrate that orthorhombic V₂O₅ can exhibit superior electrochemical performance in sodium ion batteries when uniformly coated inside nanoporous carbon. The encapsulated V₂O₅ shows a specific capacity as high as 276 mAh/g, while the whole nanocomposite exhibits a capacity of 170 mAh/g. The V₂O₅/C composite was...

Despite the considerable advances of deposition technologies, it remains a significant challenge to form conformal deposition on surface of nanoporous carbons. Here, we introduce a new ambient hydrolysis deposition method that employs and controls pre-adsorbed water vapor on nanoporous carbons to define the deposition of TiO₂. We converted the deposited...

Mg batteries have potential advantages in terms of safety, cost, and reliability
over existing battery technologies, but their practical implementations are hindered
by the lack of amenable high-voltage cathode materials. The development
of cathode materials is complicated by limited understandings of the unique
divalent Mg²⁺ ion electrochemistry and the interaction/transportation...

We introduce a novel ambient hydrolysis deposition (AHD) methodology that, for the first time, employs sequential water adsorption followed by a hydrolysis reaction to infiltrate tiny SnO2₂ particles inside nanopores of mesoporous carbon in a conformal and controllable manner. The empty space in the SnO2₂/C composites can be adjusted by...
