- A simple, rapid, yet highly novel approach to fabricate carbon quantum dots (CQDs) is reported and rigorously characterised. The CQDs are engineered into 3D porous carbon frameworks, which are demonstrated to exhibit superb electrochemical performances with ultralong cycle life and ultrafast rate capability as anode materials for Na-ion batteries; battery performance characteristics are reported which are shown to be better than previously reported. This paper is a result of an international collaboration, published in an authoritative journal and is a key resource in the field; this work lead to a KTP (11006) with DST Ltd. to develop Na-ion batteries.
