Radial Pores in Nitrogen/Oxygen Dual‐Doped Carbon Nanospheres Anode Boost High‐Power and Ultrastable Potassium‐Ion Batteries

Abstract Constructing electrode materials with fast ions and electrons transport channels is an effective solution to achieve high‐power‐density and long‐cycle potassium‐ion batteries (PIBs). Herein, completely opening radial pores in N/O dual‐doped carbon nanospheres (RPCNSs) are constructed as anode for high‐power PIBs. The RPCNS with hierarchical structure (micro/meso/macropores and radial channels) and N/O dual‐doping permits speedy ions and electrons transportation within the carbon nanospheres anode, achieving a reversible capacity of 346 mAh g −1 at 50 mA g −1 after 360 cycles and long‐term cycling life over 2000 cycles without obvious capacity attenuation. The in situ Raman and kinetic analysis (in situ electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and galvanostatic intermittent titration) suggest that the exquisitely designed pore structure and heterodoping enable highly reversible electrochemical reaction and fast de/intercalation kinetics. Moreover, the full cells packaged with RPCNS anode can be fully charged in 10 s and exhibit the highest charge power density of 24 866 W kg −1 and longest cycling endurance of 5000 cycles in reported PIBs. The unique structural engineering provides a new way for high‐power density potassium‐ion storage devices.
