Abstract

Abstract : In article number1701316, Mahesh Hariharan, Manikoth M. Shaijumon, and co‐workers demonstrate an efficient approach to tune the redox properties of perylene diimides as electrodes for sodium ion batteries by tuning their dihedral angle through appropriate electrophilic substitution. An understanding of structure‐voltage profile correlation is explored to tailor the shape of voltage profile to a single plateau, resulting in enhanced electrochemical properties for such organic electrodes.
