Recent Progress in Graphite Intercalation Compounds for Rechargeable Metal (Li, Na, K, Al)‐Ion Batteries

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with higher energy density are very necessary to meet the increasing demand for devices with better performance. With the commercial success of lithiated graphite, other graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) have also been intensively reported, not only for LIBs, but also for other metal (Na, K, Al) ion batteries. In this Progress Report, we briefly review the app...

Fe-containing CeVO4 films as Li intercalation transparent counter-electrodes

Iron containing CeVO4 films were prepared using the sol–gel method. The crystalline structure of powders and films with Fe/Ce/V ratios of 0.1:1:1, 0.3:1:1 and 0.5:1:1 were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. XRD revealed the predominance of a CeVO4-W (wakefieldite) crystalline phase with a small amount of monoclinic CeVO4, CeO2 and Fe2O3. Ex situ IR absorbanc...
