摘要

Complex phase transitions occur in P2-type materials during charging and discharging. A high-entropy structure can effectively inhibit the structural phase transition of a P2-type layered material. In this study, a high-temperature solid-phase method is used to synthesize the P2-type high-entropy fluorine oxide (HEFO) Na0.7Li0.08Mn(IV)0.21Mn(III)0.43Mg0.11Ni0.11W0.04Nb0.02O1.9F0.1 [♦-NLM(IV)0.21M(III)0.43F (♦ = NMNW-O)], with a superlattice structure and Na2WO4 coating. Na2WO4 can effectively inhibit the complex phase transition to improve the structural stability of the material and overcome the limitations of P2-type NaxTMO2 (TM = transition metal) via additional charge compensation. Adjusting the Mn3+/Mn4+ ratio to increase the average valence state of Mn and introducing F and Li+ to inhibit the Jahn–Teller effect suppress the complex phase transition during charging and discharging. The material exhibits a good multiplicative performance (discharge specific capacity of 88.4 mAh g−1 at a multiplicative rate of 10C) and capacity retention (99.22% after 200 cycles at 1C in the potential window of 1.5–4.3 V). The structural stabilities of HEFO are effectively demonstrated using electrochemical in situ X-ray diffraction and ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Theoretical calculations reveal that the high-entropy structure effectively improves the electronic structure and charge distribution of the layered oxide material. This study provides new concepts for use in developing novel energy batteries.
