Cover Story | Issue 1 Back Cover

This cover demonstrates the various substrate materials and active materials for flexible sodium ion batteries. The ocean represents an inexhaustible source of sodium, and a curved flexible sandwich structure represents a flexible sodium ion battery. Various Prussian blue, polyanion, and other carbon materials are presented on substrates such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and carbon cloth.
