Abstract

A promising K/F co-doped and rGO enwrapped K0·04Na2·96V2(PO4)2·98F0·06/C@rGO (KF-NVP/C@rGO) cathode material is synthesized through a feasible carbon thermal reduction route. K+ substitution is applied to broaden the migration channel and F doping favors to reduce the grain size to improve the diffusion rate of Na+. Moreover, rGO acts as a beneficial conductive network to provide facilitated electronic transportation. A new high-voltage plateau of ~3.8 V has been signed for the deep desodiation/sodiation of KF-NVP/C@rGO, corresponding to the segmental de-intercalation of the third Na+ at Na1 site. The initial reversible capacity can be achieved as high as 132.9 mAh g-1 at 0.1C, which is equivalent to the reversible intercalation of 2.26 Na+. Up to now, this modified composite possesses the highest discharge capacity among all the literatures about Na3V2(PO4)3 material. Moreover, the discharge energy density is 449.7 Wh kg-1 accordingly. This thus turns KF-NVP/C@rGO into a prospective candidate for advanced sodium storage technology.
