[0002] Cathode materials are a key component of ion batteries, determining their electrochemical performance. The most widely used cathode materials are inorganic materials such as iron-based, manganese-based, and vanadium-based compounds. Organic cathode materials, however, are an emerging class of energy storage materials with advantages such as abundant resources, designable structures, easy large-scale production, and convenient degradation and recycling. Developing organic cathode materials aligns with the needs and application trends of current novel energy storage technologies and is an important means to replace metal mineral resources and develop new energy storage devices.
