Visualizing the Oxidation Mechanism and Morphological Evolution of the Cubic‐Shaped Superoxide Discharge Product in Na–Air Batteries
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Sodium–air (Na–O 2 ) batteries have recently developed as a high theoretical energy density energy storage and conversion system. In particular, Na–O 2 batteries with superoxide as the discharge product have a very high round‐trip energy efficiency over lithium–air batteries due to their significantly reduced charging overpotential. However, Na–O 2 batteries yet suffer from limited cycling lives because of the formation and incomplete removal of side products during oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) processes, while the mechanism of these processes is still not fully understood. Herein, a detailed investigation on tracking the decomposition pathway of cubic‐shaped micrometer‐sized NaO 2 discharge products in Na–O 2 batteries with carbon‐based air electrodes is reported. A detailed electrochemical charging mechanism is revealed during the charging process. The evolution of the chemical compositions of the discharge/side products in air electrode during charging is also verified by synchrotron‐based X‐ray absorption spectroscopy experiments. The formation of these intermediate phases other than NaO 2 during the charging process results in high overpotentials. These new findings can contribute to a better understanding and the rational design of future Na–O 2 batteries.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
