The working principle of sodium‐ion batteries is depicted by C. Wang and co‐workers, who use molybdenum disulfide/carbon nanoflowers as an anode material and sodium metal as a counter electrode. Their devices demonstrate the best cycling performance of MoS 2 for Na‐ion batteries reported so far. The characteristic layered structure of MoS 2 is shown in the bottom right of the main image, and the reversible conversion mechnism of MoS 2 during sodiation/desodiation is confirmed on page 473.
