In recent years, metal phosphosulfides have attracted great attention as the promising anode materials in sodium/potassium batteries because of their incorporation of the advantages of metal phosphides and sulfides. However, they are also confronted with the problem of unstable battery performance due to the heavy volume expansion and sluggish ion reaction kinetics. Herein, yolk-shell cobalt phosphosulfide nanocrystals encapsulating into multi-heterogeneous atom (N, P, S)-doped carbon framework (Co₉S₈/CoP@NPSC) were constructed by employing dodecahedral ZIF-67 as precursor and a polymer as carbon sources through simultaneous sulfidation and phosphorization processes. The synergistic effect of Co₉S₈ and CoP component and the yolk-shell structure greatly improve the bettery performance and structural stability. In addition, the multiple hetero-atoms doped carbon frameworks enhance the conductivity of the electrode materials and increase the spacing of carbon layers to supply sufficient active sites and facilitate the Na⁺/K⁺ transport. The electrochemical results demonstrated that Co₉S₈/CoP@NPSC exhibited the pleasant reversible capacity (360.47 mAh/g at 1 A/g) after 300 cycles and an unpredictable cycling stability (103.22 mAh/g after 1000 cycles) in the SIBs application. The ex-situ XRD and XPS analyses were further applied to study the sodium ion storage mechanism and the multi-step phase transition reaction of the yolk-shell heterogeneous structure. This work provides new perspectives for the preparation of novel structure metal phosphosulfide and their applications in anode materials for sodium/potassium batteries and other secondary batteries.
