    PolyanionNaNi<inf>1 − x</inf>Cu<inf>x</inf>PO<inf>4</inf> glass and glass-ceramic networks are prepared by Melt-quenching and after heat treated for 5 h at its T<inf>c</inf>, regarded as probable cathode composite material for Na-ion batteries (SIBs). The intensity variations arrived from XRD traces, revealed that the phases NaNi<inf>4</inf>(PO<inf>4</inf>)<inf>3</inf> (ICSD 60-964), NaCu(PO<inf>4</inf>) (ICSD 581-303), and Na<inf>2</inf>CuNi(PO<inf>4</inf>)<inf>2</inf> (ICSD 20-22594) which are precipitated during heat treatment is primarily caused by the partial substitution of tetrahedral PO<inf>4</inf> and CuO<inf>6</inf> sites with NiO<inf>6</inf> structural active sites in the glass-ceramic network resulting to accommodate sudden volume changes, and therefore diffusion of Na<sup>+</sup> ions will be improved along with fast rate capability and voltage for longer durations as reflected in SEM image analysis.

    This investigation highlights the influence of nanosized amorphous intermediate domains such as Na<inf>3</inf>Bi and Na<inf>2</inf>Ti on the electrochemical characteristics of the new Na<inf>2</inf>O-Bi<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> glass anode network mixed with TiO<inf>2</inf> nanocrystals. Amorphous domains (h-Na<inf>3</inf>Bi and h-Na<inf>2</inf>Ti) are indexed with hexagonal structures precipitated during the charging and discharging process, which might improve the high electrochemical performance of the glass anode network to a greater extent. The first discharge and charge capacities are recorded as 700 and 1060 mAh/g, respectively. Moreover, the Coulombic efficiency achieved is between 66 and 98% as the current rate varies from 0.1 C to 5 C. The value of R<inf>ct</inf> in the EIS spectra gradually decreases up to 500 cycles, indicating an increase in the electronic conductivity, eventually boosting the ionic conductivity. These results will create a potential interest to design and develop various glass and glass–ceramic anode networks to realize Na-ion technology for large-scale energy storage applications.

    This investigation demonstrates the electrochemical performance of glass and glass–ceramic NaMn<inf>1−x</inf>(VO)<inf>x</inf>PO<inf>4</inf> (x = 0.1, 0.3, 05, 0.7 mol%, and labeled as NM<inf>1−x</inf>V<inf>x</inf>P) cathode material system via phase details, structural illustration, electronic conductivity, and reversible capacity, etc. Pro-crystal calculation analysis is used to monitor Na<sup>+</sup> ion pathways’ migration for as-precipitated NaMnPO<inf>4</inf>, Na<inf>2</inf>MnP<inf>2</inf>O<inf>7</inf>, and NaVO<inf>3</inf> phases. The highest conductivity is achieved (≈5.92 × 10<sup>−7</sup> S cm<sup>−1</sup>) for the glass–ceramic sample having x = 0.3 mol% (NM<inf>0.7</inf>V<inf>0.3</inf>P) due to the lowest charge transfer resistance (R<inf>ct</inf>). Electrochemical measurements of the best conducting sample using coin half-cell exhibit two distinct voltage plateaus at 2 and 2.9 V versus Na/Na<sup>+</sup>, facilitating the active centers in two directions. The cyclability test of best-conducting NM<inf>0.7</inf>V<inf>0.3</inf>P glass–ceramic network exhibits adequate reversible capacity up to 97% of the specific capacity even up to 50 cycles, which satisfies its superior stability for longer durations.

    Abstract: In this report, efforts were made to investigate and characterize a variety of compositions in a glass system of general formula Na<inf>3+x</inf>Cr<inf>x</inf>Ti<inf>2−x</inf>(PO<inf>4</inf>)<inf>3</inf> (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 mol%, designated as NCTP<inf>x</inf>) to optimize their properties for use in Na-ion batteries. Several crystalline phases such as Na<inf>3</inf>Ti<inf>2</inf>(PO<inf>4</inf>)<inf>3</inf> (COD-4106515) (NASICON), Cr<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> (ICSD-25781) and Cr(PO<inf>3</inf>)<inf>3</inf> (ICSD-39410) are precipitated during the process of crystallization. The microstructures of all the glass and glass–ceramic samples are analyzed using SEM and are correlated with powder XRD to explain the ionic conductivity for a given glass–ceramic sample. Single semicircle in the complex impedance plots clearly suggests that the present NCTP<inf>x</inf> glass samples exhibit a predominantly single-ion conduction mechanism. Electrical conductivity data follow the Arrhenius equation. The power-law exponent ‘s’ is observed to be the lowest (0.70) for the best conducting glass–ceramic sample NTCP<inf>0.5</inf> (4.24 × 10<sup>−4</sup> S/cm). The electrical modulus study proves that the conductivity relaxation of NCTP<inf>x</inf> glass–ceramic samples is temperature independent. Scaling behavior in the normalized spectra indicates that frequency-dependent relaxation behavior is unaffected by the temperature. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

    Exploring the growing phenomenon of amorphous intermediate domains at nanoscale and its application as flexible active centres in a glass anode network is decisively significant to enhance sodium-ion battery performance. The outstanding stability of nanosized h-Na<inf>3</inf>Bi and NaGe domains in the glass anode network makes it more electrochemically efficient and increases its ionic conductivity. Subsequently, improved cycle stability and rate capability of glass anode half-cell have been achieved due to optimum void space between domains and open glass network. It also exhibits enhanced ability to withstand extensive volume variations during the repetitive sodiation/de-sodiation process. The size of the amorphous intermediate domains, structure, and lattice planes separation has been estimated based on the HRTEM and SAED images. The advantages gained by the growth of amorphous domains in the sodium-germanate glass network highlights its potential application as high-performance anode components for the advancement of Na-ion battery (NIB) efficiency.
