Abstract

Abstract: Invited for this month's cover picture is the group of Prof. Li from Key Laboratory of Advanced Energy Materials Chemistry (Ministry of Education) of Nankai University and Prof. Chan from Department of Chemistry of University of Hong Kong. The cover picture illustrates a promising aprotic Na‐O2 battery with a Na metal anode, a porous oxygen diffusion cathode, and discharge product of NaO2 .

Abstract : "Rechargeable aprotic sodium‐oxygen (Na‐O2 ) batteries that can operate with low overpotential (<200 mV) have attracted extensive attention. A lot of progress in performance and understanding of Na‐O2 batteries has been achieved, but there are still significant challenges. Herein, a critical review is given to suggest directions for further improvement." Learn more about the story behind the research featured on the front cover in this issue's Cover Profile.
