Abstract

Organic electrode materials are widely applied for metal (lithium and sodium)-ion batteries (LIBs and SIBs) due to their structural diversity and redox reversibility. Molecule-aggregation organic electrodes in principle possess the “single-molecule-energy-storage” capability for metal-ion rechargeable batteries. Nevertheless, the small-molecule organic have serious solubility problems in traditional commercial electrolyte, which limited the application in rechargeable batteries. Besides dissolution issue, the effect of possible solvent co-intercalation in liquid electrolytes also devalues the true performance of organic electrodes due to the weak Van der Waals forces among organic molecules. Herein, an organic small-molecule cathode called benzene-bridged phenanthraquinone (BBP) with two phenanthraquinones are exploited as the highly stable organic cathode in LIBs and SIBs. Consequently, BBP can deliver high stale capacity above 67 and 57 mAh g-1 during a long cycle time in both batteries (500 mA g-1). In LIBs and SIBs, the resulting BBP can deliver a peak discharge capacity of 130 and 159 mAh g-1 cathode with an average voltage of 2.3 and 18 V. Meanwhile, the BBP can remain 79% and 88% capacity retention (133 and 126 mAh g-1) at 500 mA g-1 in LIBs and SIBs, respectively. And BBP delivers the capacities of 130 and 144 mAh g-1 for 50 cycles at 100 mA g-1 in LIBs and SIBs.
