As an alternative to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have attracted much attention because sodium is abundant, cost-effective, and environmentally benign. However, due to the larger size of Na-ion compared to the Li-ion, graphite does not work well as an anode for SIBs, as it does for LIBs. In this work, based on first-principles calculations, we show that the recently proposed topological semi-metallic carbon, HZGM-42, has great potential as an anode material for SIBs. With a large capacity of 318.5 mAhg-1, low diffusion barrier of 0.08–0.21 eV, low average open-circuit voltage of 0.43 V, and a small volume expansion of 1.85%, the all-carbon topological quantum HZGM-42 has high energy density, good rate capability, and excellent cycling stability and can serve as a universal anode material for both LIBs and SIBs.
