A Defect‐Free Principle for Advanced Graphene Cathode of Aluminum‐Ion Battery

A conceptually new defect-free principle is proposed for designing graphene cathode of aluminum-ion battery: the fewer the defects, the better the performances. Developed through scalable approach, defect-free graphene aerogel cathode affords high capacity of 100 mAh g-1 under an ultrahigh rate of 500 C, exceeding defective graphene and previous reports. This defect-free principle can guide us to fabricate better graphene-based electrodes.
