报告摘要：The development of advanced energy storage systems is urgent to transform our society into one based on renewable energy resources, in which rechargeable batteries are one of the most promising approaches but remains to be solved. In addition to the high capacity and efficiency, the low cost and the raw material abundance are also the key characteristics. Due to the low cost and abundant resources, K-ion batteries have been emerged as a promising low-cost system for large-scale energy storage. The formidable challenge is to develop suitable electrode materials and electrolytes for accommodating the relatively large size and high activity of potassium. In this talk, I will introduce our work on alloy-based anodes, manganese oxide cathode, and electrolytes for K-ion batteries, and will discuss the issues and opportunities for building better K-ion batteries.
