The article explores the potential of high entropy oxides (HEOs) for reversible energy storage, particularly lithium storage. HEOs are compounds that incorporate multiple metal cations into a single-phase crystal structure, leading to novel and unexpected properties. The study focuses on the electrochemical behavior of transition-metal-based HEOs (TM-HEOs), rare-earth-based HEOs (RE-HEOs), and mixed TM-REHEOs. Key findings include: 1. **Reversible Lithium Storage**: TM-HEOs exhibit high lithium storage capacity and excellent cycling stability, attributed to the entropy stabilization of the crystal structure. 2. **Mechanism of Reversibility**: The rock-salt structure of TM-HEOs serves as a host matrix for the conversion reactions, allowing for the reversible reoccupation of reduced cations during the redox process. 3. **Elemental Influence**: The electrochemical properties of TM-HEOs can be tailored by changing the elemental composition, with each element contributing differently to the overall performance. 4. **Comparison with Medium Entropy Compounds**: TM-HEOs show superior cycling stability compared to medium entropy compounds, which exhibit varying degrees of degradation with increasing cycles. 5. **Structural Stability**: The preservation of the rock-salt structure during lithiation and delithiation is crucial for the stable cycling behavior of TM-HEOs. 6. **Synthesis and Characterization**: The synthesis of TM-HEOs using the Nebulized Spray Pyrolysis (NSP) method yields highly crystalline materials, and their electrochemical properties are characterized using techniques such as XRD, TEM, and SEM. The study highlights the potential of HEOs as promising materials for energy storage applications, emphasizing the importance of entropy stabilization in enhancing their performance.The article explores the potential of high entropy oxides (HEOs) for reversible energy storage, particularly lithium storage.
