Defect‐Selectivity and “Order‐in‐Disorder” Engineering in Carbon for Durable and Fast Potassium Storage (Adv. Mater. 7/2022)

Potassium-Ion Batteries Defect-rich carbon materials possess high gravimetric potassium storage capability, but their cyclic stability is limited because of the low reversibility of undesirable defects and their deteriorative conductivity. In article number 2108621, Zhicheng Ju, Shenglin Xiong, and co-workers propose an in situ defect-selectivity and order-in-disorder synergetic engineering in carbon materials via a self-template strategy to boost the K+-storage capacity, rate capability, and cyclic stability simultaneously.
