Correction to: Origin of fast charging in hard carbon anodes (Nature Energy, (2024), 9, 2, (134-142), 10.1038/s41560-023-01414-5)

Correction to: Nature Energyhttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41560-023-01414-5, published online 3 January 2024. In the version of this article initially published, lithium (green, “Li”) and sodium (purple, “Na”) color key labels in Fig. 3a,d,e were interchanged and are now amended in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.

Origin of fast charging in hard carbon anodes

Transport electrification and grid storage hinge largely on fast-charging capabilities of Li- and Na-ion batteries, but anodes such as graphite with plating issues drive the scientific focus towards anodes with slopped storage potentials. Here we report fast charging of ampere-hour-level full Na-ion batteries within about 9 minutes for...

Revealing an Interconnected Interfacial Layer in Solid-State Polymer Sodium Batteries

Replacing the commonly used nonaqueous liquid electrolytes in rechargeable sodium batteries with polymer solid electrolytes is expected to provide new opportunities to develop safer batteries with higher energy densities. However, this poses challenges related to the interface between the Na-metal anode and polymer electrolytes. Driven by...
