"the bottleneck and controversies lie in the assignment of the plateau capacity (figure 11). up to now, debates remain in the orientation of sodium storage mechanism in the plateau region, including interlayer intercalation and pore‐filling mechanism. both mechanisms can explain the corresponding experimental results. although these disputes remain, it is assuring that the plateau capacity of hard carbon anode can be extended by expanding the interlayer spacing between graphitic sheets or generat" }, { "source_pdf":
