Figure 14. (A) (a) The (dis)charging curves at 0.1 A g^-1, (b) Rate performance at various ampere densities, (c) Cycling behavior at 0.5 A g^-1, and (d) High-rate cycling at 10 A g^-1 for GES-A and GES-C samples. (B) (a) Digital photos of electrodes and separators before cycling and after completing 100 cycles. (b and c) Corresponding SEM images after 100 cycles for GES-A and GES-C samples. (d) Mechanistic layout of inner stress. (e) Raman spectra before and after cycling for GES-A and GES-C. (f-i) TEM supported illustration of enhanced structural stability after 100 cycles for (f and g) GES-A and (h and i) GES-C. Reproduced with permission from^[173].
