Stress Dissipation Driven by Multi‐Interface Built‐In Electric Fields and Desert‐Rose‐Like Structure for Ultrafast and Superior Long‐Term Sodium Ion Storage

Abstract The kinetics and durability of conversion‐based anodes greatly depend on the intrinsic stress regulating ability of the electrode materials, which has been significantly neglected. Herein, a stress dissipation strategy driven by multi‐interface built‐in electric fields (BEFs) and architected structure, is innovatively proposed to design ultrafast and long‐term sodium ion storage anodes. Binary Mo/Fe sulfide heterostructured nanorods with multi‐interface BEFs and staggered cantilever configuration are fabricated to prove our concept. Multi‐physics simulations and experimental results confirm that the inner stress in multiple directions can be dissipated by the multi‐interface BEFs at the micro‐scale, and by the staggered cantilever structure at the macro‐scale, respectively. As a result, our designed heterostructured nanorods anode exhibits superb rate capability (332.8 mAh g −1 at 10.0 A g −1 ) and durable cyclic stability over 900 cycles at 5.0 A g −1 , outperforming other metal chalcogenides. This proposed stress dissipation strategy offers a new insight for developing stable structures for conversion‐based anodes.
