The nitrogen doping generally plays an important role in alkali-ion storage. Herein the nitrogen doping effect on K+ storage in graphite foam is explored. Experimental and theoretical calculations reveal that the K+ storage behavior is strongly dependent on nitrogen doping concentration and doping c...
