The development of high-energy and long-lifespan NASICON-type cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries has always been a research hotspot but a daunting challenge.Although Na4MnCr(PO4)3 has emerged as one of the most promising high-energy-density cathode materials owing to its three-electron reactions,it still suffers from serious structural distortion upon repetitive charge/discharge processes caused by the Jahn-Teller active Mn3+.Herein,the selective substitution of Cr by Zr in Na4MnCr(PO4)3 was explored to enhance the structural stability,due to the pinning effect of Zr ions and the ≈2.9-electron reactions,as-prepared Na3.9MnCr0.9Zr0.1(PO4)3/C delivers a high capacity retention of 85.94%over 500 cycles at 5 C and an ultrahigh capacity of 156.4 mAh g-1 at 0.1 C,enabling the stable energy output as high as 555.2 Wh kg-1.Moreover,during the whole charge/discharge process,a small volume change of only 6.7%was verified by in situ X-ray diffraction,and the reversible reactions of Cr3+/Cr4+,Mn3+/Mn4+,and Mn2+/Mn3+redox couples were identified via ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses.Galvanostatic intermittent titration technique tests and density functional theory calculations further demonstrated the fast reaction kinetics of the Na3.9MnCr0.9Zr0.1(PO4)3/C electrode.This work offers new opportunities for designing high-energy and high-stability NASICON cathodes by ion doping.
