Titanium and vanadium based bimetallic prussian blue analogue as a cathode material for sodium ion batteries

The growing need for alternative and renewable energy sources has led to a higher need for robust and readily available energy storage solutions. So far, the sodium ion battery (SIB) has demonstrated superior performance compared to lithium-ion batteries. However, it still faces challenges related t...

description The growing need for alternative and renewable energy sources has led to a higher need for robust and readily available energy storage solutions. So far, the sodium ion battery (SIB) has demonstrated superior performance compared to lithium-ion batteries. However, it still faces challenges related to the cathode materials, such as limited energy density, structural integrity issues, and cycle stability concerns. As a result of these challenges, the process of scaling up and commercialization of sodium ion batteries is currently facing difficulties. The designing of cathode material is a straightforward approach to enhance the overall efficiency of the sodium ion battery. The main objective of this research is to investigate how varying concentrations of dopants in the cathode sample impact its electrochemical performance, specifically in terms of its specific capacity and stability during the charge-discharge cycle.
