Assembly of Na₃V₂(PO₄)₂F₃@C nanoparticles in reduced graphene oxide enabling superior Na⁺ storage for symmetric sodium batteries.

ABSTRACT: Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was used to encapsulate Na₃V₂(PO₄)₂F₃@Carbon nanoparticles to overcome its inherent low electronic conductivity and achieve superior sodium storage performance. This as-prepared cathode delivers a remarkable rate performance with a discharge capacity of ca. 64 mA h g^-1 at 70C and an ultra-long-term cyclability over 4000 cycles with great capacity retention of 81% at 30C. This excellent performance can be attributed to the favorable combination of fast ionic conductivity of the NASICON structure and the interpenetrating conductive carbon framework; thus bringing a good pseudocapacitive quality to this material. Furthermore, thanks to the good sodium storage properties at low potential, a sy
