	abstract = {<p>In recent decades, particular focus has been given to enhance the capacity of LIBs and SIBs either by developing new materials or by modifying existing materials. Hence, we have demonstrated a new anode material i.e. sodium iron molybdate [NaFe(MoO4)2] for both LIBs and SIBs. NaFe(MoO4)2 has been successfully synthesized by solid-state combustion technique and tested as a promising new anode material for both LIBs and SIBs. A detailed analysis of the crystal structure has been performed using DFT calculations. NaFe(MoO4)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic phase with the space group C2/c (\#15). FESEM also shows highly crystalline monoclinic shaped crystals of micron size. When evaluated as an anode material for LIBs, NaFe(MoO4)2 electrode exhibited electrochemical capacity of 920 mAhg- 1 in the second cycle at the current density of 50 mAg-1. Though capacity decreases on further cycling, the coulombic efficiency was maintained at 99\% for 50 cycles. Significantly, a high discharge capacity of 100 mAhg- 1 was maintained at a very high rate of 1 Ag-1. On the other hand, we have also tested NaFe(MoO4)2 for SIBs which shows excellent reversible specific capacity i.e. 100 mAhg- 1 at the current density of 100 mAg-1 even after 500 cycles. This novel system has shown good stability for LIBs and SIBs which is hitherto unattempted.</p>},
