Graphical Abstract

A multi-ion strategy can enhance the electrochemical performance of sodium-ion batteries. In their Communication on page 16370 ff., Y. B. Tang et al. report a multi-ion configuration (Na+/Li+/PF6) for sodium-ion full batteries by combining anion (PF6) intercalation with a hybrid-ion design (Na+/Li+) electrolyte. The optimized batteries exhibited a high working voltage (ca. 4.0 V), a significantly enhanced rate performance, and superior cycling stability.
