Abstract
The present review focuses on the widely used graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4)-tungsten oxide (WO3) nanocomposite in photocatalytic applications. These catalysts are widely employed due to their easy preparation, high physicochemical stability, nontoxicity, electron-rich properties, electronic band structure, chemical stability, low cost, earth-abundance, high surface area, and strong absorption capacity in the visible range. These sustainable properties make them predominantly attractive and unique from other photocatalysts. In addition, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) is synthesized from nitrogen-rich precursors; therefore, it is stable in strong acid solutions and has good thermal stability up to 600 °C. This review covers the historical background, crystalline phases, density-functional theory (DFT) study, synthesis method, 0-D, 1-D, 2-D, and 3-D materials, oxides/transition/nontransition metal-doped, characterization, and photocatalytic applications of WO3/g-C3N4. Enhancing the catalytic performance strategies such as composite formation, element-doping, heterojunction construction, and nanostructure design are also summarized. Finally, the future perspectives and challenges for WO3/g-C3N4 composite materials are discussed to motivate young researchers and scientists interested in developing environment-friendly and efficient catalysts.

Carbon-Encased Mixed-Metal Selenide Rooted with Carbon Nanotubes for High-Performance Hybrid Supercapacitors. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27217507.

Abstract
Transition metal-based compounds with high theoretical capacitance and low cost represent one class of promising electrode materials for high-performance supercapacitors. However, their low intrinsic electrical conductivity impedes their capacitive effect and further limits their practical application. Rational regulation of their composition and structure is, therefore, necessary to achieve a high electrode performance. Herein, a well-designed carbon-encased mixed-metal selenide rooted with carbon nanotubes (Ni-Co-Se@C-CNT) was derived from nickel–cobalt bimetallic organic frameworks. Due to the unique porous structure, the synergistic effect of bimetal selenides and the in situ growth of carbon nanotubes, the composite exhibits good electrical conductivity, high structural stability and abundant redox active sites. Benefitting from these merits, the Ni-Co-Se@C-CNT exhibited a high specific capacity of 554.1 C g−1 (1108.2 F g−1) at 1 A g−1 and a superior cycling performance, i.e., 96.4% of the initial capacity was retained after 5000 cycles at 10 A g−1. Furthermore, a hybrid supercapacitor assembled with Ni-Co-Se@C-CNT cathode and activated carbon (AC) anode shows a superior energy density of 38.2 Wh kg−1 at 1602.1 W kg−1.

Abstract
Implementing fast-charging lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is severely hindered by the issues of Li plating and poor rate capability for conventional graphite anode. Wadsley-Roth phase TiNb2 O7 is regarded as a promising anode candidate to satisfy the requirements of fast-charging LIBs. However, the unsatisfactory electrochemical kinetics resulting from sluggish ion and electron transfer still limit its wide applications. Herein, an effective strategy is proposed to synchronously improve the ion and electron transfer of TiNb2 O7 by incorporation of oxygen vacancy and N-doped graphene matrix (TNO- x @N-G), which is designed by combination of solution-combustion and electrostatic self-assembly approach. Theoretical calculations demonstrate that Li+ intercalation gives rise to the semi-metallic characteristics of lithiated phases (Liy TNO- x ), leading to the self-accelerated electron transport. Moreover, in situ X-ray diffraction and Raman measurements reveal the highly reversible structural evolution of the TNO- x @N-G during cycling. Consequently, the TNO- x @N-G delivers a higher reversible capacity of 199.0 mAh g-1 and a higher capacity retention of 86.5% than those of pristine TNO (155.8 mAh g-1 , 59.4%) at 10 C after 2000 cycles. Importantly, various electrochemical devices including lithium-ion full battery and hybrid lithium-ion capacitor by using the TNO- x @N-G anode exhibit excellent rate capability and cycling stability, verifying its potential in practical applications.

Abstract
Developing advanced electrode materials with enhanced charge-transfer kinetics is the key to realizing fast energy storage technologies. Commonly used modification strategies, such as nanoengineering and carbon coating, are mainly focused on electron transfer and bulk Li+ diffusion. Nonetheless, the desolvation behavior, which is considered as the rate-limiting process for charge-storage, is rarely studied. Herein, we designed a nitridation layer on the surface of Wadsley-Roth phase FeNb11O29 (FNO-x@N) to act as a desolvation promoter. Theoretical calculations demonstrate that the adsorption and desolvation of solvated Li+ is efficiently improved at FNO-x@N/electrolyte interphase, leading to the reduced desolvation energy barrier. Moreover, the nitridation layer can also help to prevent solvent cointercalation during Li+ insertion, leading to advantageous shrinkage of block area and reduced volume change of lattice cell during cycling. Consequently, FNO-x@N exhibits a high-rate capacity of 129.7 mAh g-1 with negligible capacity decay for 10 000 cycles.

Abstract
Over the past decades, the application of new hybrid materials in energy storage systems has seen significant development. The efforts have been made to improve electrochemical performance, cyclic stability, and cell life. To achieve this, attempts have been made to modify existing electrode materials. This was achieved by using nano-scale materials. A reduction of size enabled an obtainment of changes of conductivity, efficient energy storage and/or conversion (better kinetics), emergence of superparamagnetism, and the enhancement of optical properties, resulting in better electrochemical performance. The design of hybrid heterostructures enabled taking full advantage of each component, synergistic effect, and interaction between components, resulting in better cycle stability and conductivity. Nowadays, nanocomposite has ended up one of the foremost prevalent materials with potential applications in batteries, flexible cells, fuel cells, photovoltaic cells, and photocatalysis. The main goal of this review is to highlight a new progress of different hybrid materials, nanocomposites (also polymeric) used in lithium-ion (LIBs) and sodium-ion (NIBs) cells, solar cells, supercapacitors, and fuel cells and their electrochemical performance.

Abstract
The development of new electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has attracted significant attention because commercial anode materials in LIBs, like graphite, may not be able to meet the increasing energy demand of new electronic devices. Tin dioxide (SnO2) is considered as a promising alternative to graphite due to its high specific capacity. However, the large volume changes of SnO2 during the lithiation/delithiation process lead to capacity fading and poor cycling performance. In this review, we have summarized the synthesis of SnO2-based nanomaterials with various structures and chemical compositions, and their electrochemical performance as LIB anodes. This review addresses pure SnO2 nanomaterials, the composites of SnO2 and carbonaceous materials, the composites of SnO2 and transition metal oxides, and other hybrid SnO2-based materials. By providing a discussion on the synthesis methods and electrochemistry of some representative SnO2-based nanomaterials, we aim to demonstrate that electrochemical properties can be significantly improved by modifying chemical composition and morphology. By analyzing and summarizing the recent progress in SnO2 anode materials, we hope to show that there is still a long way to go for SnO2 to become a commercial LIB electrode and more research has to be focused on how to enhance the cycling stability.

Abstract
This is a critical review of the advances in the molecular design of organic electroactive molecules, which are the key components for redox flow batteries (RFBs). As a large-scale energy storage system with great potential, the redox flow battery has been attracting increasing attention in the last few decades. The redox molecules, which bridge the interconversion between chemical energy and electric energy for RFBs, have generated wide interest in many fields such as energy storage, functional materials, and synthetic chemistry. The most widely used electroactive molecules are inorganic metal ions, most of which are scarce and expensive, hindering the broad deployment of RFBs. Thus, there is an urgent motivation to exploit novel cost-effective electroactive molecules for the commercialization of RFBs. RFBs based on organic electroactive molecules such as quinones and nitroxide radical derivatives have been studied and have been a hot topic of research due to their inherent merits in the last decade. However, few comprehensive summaries regarding the molecular design of organic electroactive molecules have been published. Herein, the latest progress and challenges of organic electroactive molecules in both non-aqueous and aqueous RFBs are reviewed, and future perspectives are put forward for further developments of RFBs as well as other electrochemical energy storage systems.

Abstract
SnO2 is an attractive anodic material for advanced lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, its low electronic conductivity and large volume change in lithiation/delithiation lead to a poor rate/cycling performance. Moreover, the initial Coulombic efficiencies (CEs) of SnO2 anodes are usually too low to build practical full LIBs. Herein, a two-step hydrothermal synthesis and pyrolysis method is used to prepare a SnO2/C nanocomposite, in which aggregated SnO2 nanosheets and a carbon network are well-interpenetrated with each other. The SnO2/C nanocomposite exhibits a good rate/cycling performance in half-cell tests but still shows a low initial CE of 45%. To overcome this shortage and realize its application in a full-cell assembly, the SnO2/C anode is controllably prelithiated by the lithium-biphenyl reagent and then coupled with a LiCoO2 cathode. The resulting full LIB displays a high capacity of over 98 mAh g-1LCO in 300 cycles at 1 C rate.

Currently, the design of carbon-based composite as a high-performance anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) presents challenges for commercial application. Herein, we developed a three-dimensional carbon-based material with a nanotube-sheet mutual support structure (MS-CNTS) engineered by the catalytic effect of Co species. The present work highlights a concise 'solvent-free' synthetic method allowing for large-scale output, which is potentially available for low cost commercial use. With the readily available acetylacetonate and cobalt (II) acetylacetonate as starting chemicals, this nanostructured carbonaceous material is fabricated with aldol condensation to construct a Co-contained carbon-link network polymer precursor followed by annealing under argon. It is composed of brim-curled graphene-like carbon nanosheets and carbon nanotubes, which support each other's structures to effectively avoid agglomeration. Therefore, it enables high performance in LIBs. In spite of the trace amount of cobalt, the carbon-based MS-CNTS anode delivers a high charge capacity of 1028 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1, high rate capacity of 495 mAh g-1 at 2 A g-1, and ultra-long cycling life with a very low capacity decay of 0.008% per cycle over 1000 cycles at 0.5 A g-1, accompanied by 100% Coulombic efficiency. From full cell measurements, we further confirm the considerable promise of MS-CNTS as anodes with a long cycling life.

Abstract
Herein, recent progress in the field of tin oxide (SnO2 )-based nanosized and nanostructured materials as conversion and alloying/dealloying-type anodes in lithium-ion batteries and beyond (sodium- and potassium-ion batteries) is briefly discussed. The first section addresses the importance of the initial SnO2 micro- and nanostructure on the conversion and alloying/dealloying reaction upon lithiation and its impact on the microstructure and cyclability of the anodes. A further section is dedicated to recent advances in the fabrication of diverse 0D to 3D nanostructures to overcome stability issues induced by large volume changes during cycling. Additionally, the role of doping on conductivity and synergistic effects of redox-active and -inactive dopants on the reversible lithium-storage capacity and rate capability are discussed. Furthermore, the synthesis and electrochemical properties of nanostructured SnO2 /C composites are reviewed. The broad research spectrum of SnO2 anode materials is finally reflected in a brief overview of recent work published on Na- and K-ion batteries.

Abstract
Carbon encapsulated porous Sn/Sn4P3 (Sn/Sn4P3@C) composite is conveniently prepared by one-step electrochemical dealloying of Sn80P20 alloy in mild conditions followed by growing one carbon layer. Controllable dealloying of the Sn80P20 alloy results in the formation of bicontinuous spongy Sn4P3 nanostructure with a part of residued metallic Sn atoms embedded in the porous skeleton. A uniform carbon layer is deposited on the nanoporous Sn/Sn4P3 to prevent the nanostructure's pulverizing and agglomerating during lithium ion insertion/extraction. Upon double conductivity modification from metallic Sn matrix and carbon layer, the as-made composite displays superior lithium-storage performances with much higher specific capacity as well as better cycling stability compared with pure porous Sn4P3. It offers a specific capacity of 837 mA h g-1 after 100 cycles at a rate of 100 mA g-1. Even after 700 cycles at the higher rate of 1000 mA g-1, the specific capacity still maintains as high as 589 mA h g-1. The Sn/Sn4P3@C material possesses promising application potential as an alternative anode in the lithium storage fields.
