ABSTRACT
High entropy material (HEM) has emerged as an appealing material platform for various applications, and specifically, the electrochemical performances of HEM could be further improved through self-assembled structure design. However, it remains a big challenge to construct such high-entropy self-assemblies primarily due to the compositional complexity. Herein, we propose a bottom-up directional freezing route to self-assemble high-entropy hydrosols into porous nanosheets. Taking Prussian blue analogue (PBA) as an example, the simultaneous coordination-substitution reactions yield stable high-entropy PBA hydrosols. During subsequent directional freezing process, the anisotropic growth of ice crystals could guide the two-dimensional confined assembly of colloidal nanoparticles, resulting in high-entropy PBA nanosheets (HE-PBA NSs). Thanks to the high-entropy and self-assembled structure design, the HE-PBA NSs manifests markedly enhanced sodium storage kinetics and performances in comparison with medium/low entropy nanosheets and high entropy nanoparticles.
