Intermediate honeycomb ordering to trigger oxygen redox chemistry in layered battery electrode

Sodium-excess metal oxides Na2MO3 are appealing cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries. Here, the authors demonstrate that honeycomb-type cation ordering in Na2RuO3 triggers the oxygen redox reaction via frontier orbital reorganization, increasing the capacity by 1/3 compared with disordered Na2...
