Abstract
Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) have received incremental attention due to their high volumetric capacity and safety. Nevertheless, the sluggish diffusion kinetics of highly polarized Mg2+ in host lattices severely hinders the development of RMBs. Herein, we report an electron injection strategy for modulating Mo 4d-orbital splitting manner and firstly fabricate a dual-phase MoO2.8F0.2/MoO2.4F0.6 heterostructure to accelerate Mg2+ diffusion. The electron injection strategy triggers weak Jahn-Teller distortion in MoO6 octahedra and reorganization of the Mo 4d-orbital, leading to a partial phase transition from orthorhombic phase MoO2.8F0.2 to cubic phase MoO2.4F0.6. As a result, the designed heterostructure generates a built-in electric field, simultaneously improves its electronic conductivity and ionic diffusivity by at least one order of magnitude compared to MoO2.8F0.2 and MoO2.4F0.6. Importantly, the assembled MoO2.8F0.2/MoO2.4F0.6//Mg full cell exhibits a remarkable reversible capacity of 172.5 mA h g−1 at 0.1 A g−1, pushing forward the orbital-scale manipulation for high-performance RMBs.
