Abstract
Three-dimensional interconnected nickel-cobalt layered double hydroxides (NiCo-LDHs) were prepared on nickel foam by ion exchange using a cobalt-based metal-organic framework (Co-MOF) as a template at different temperatures. The effects of the Co-MOF preparation temperature on the growth, mass, morphology, and electrochemical properties of the Co-MOF and derived NiCo-LDH samples were studied. The synthesis temperature from 30 to 50 °C gradually increased the mass of the active material and the thickness of the Co-MOF sheets grown on the nickel foam. The higher the temperature is, the larger the proportion of Co3+. β-Cobalt hydroxide (β-Co(OH)2) sheets were generated above 60 °C. The morphology and mass loading pattern of the derived flocculent layer clusters of NiCo-LDH were inherited from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The areal capacitance of NiCo-LDH shows an inverted U-shaped curve trend with increasing temperature. The electrode material synthesized at 50 °C had a tremendous specific capacitance of 7631 mF·cm-2 at a current density of 2 mA·cm-2. The asymmetric supercapacitor assembled with the sample and active carbon (AC) achieved an energy density of 55.0 Wh·kg-1 at a power density of 800.0 W·kg-1, demonstrating the great potential of the NiCo-LDH material for energy storage. This work presents a new strategy for designing and fabricating advanced green supercapacitor materials with large power and energy densities.

Abstract
The remarkable characteristics of porous biochar have generated significant interest in various fields, such as CO2 capture and supercapacitors. The modification of aerogel-derived porous biochar through activation and heteroatomic doping can effectively enhance CO2 adsorption and improve supercapacitor performance. In this study, a novel N, B-co-doped porous biochar (NBCPB) was synthesized by carbonating and activating the N, B dual-doped cellulose aerogel. N and B atoms were doped in-situ using a modified alkali-urea method. The potassium citrate was served as both an activator and a salt template to facilitate the formation of a well-developed nanostructure. The optimized NBCPB-650-1 (where 650 corresponded to activation temperature and 1 represented mass ratio of potassium citrate activator to carbonized NBCPB-400 precursor) displayed the largest micropore volume of 0.40 cm3·g-1 and a high specific surface area of 891 m2·g-1, which contributed to an excellent CO2 adsorption capacity of 4.19 mmol·g-1 at 100 kPa and 25 °C, a high CO2/N2 selectivity, and exceptional reusability (retained >97.5 % after 10 adsorption-desorption cycles). Additionally, the NBCPB-650-1 electrode also delivered a high capacitance of 220.9 F·g-1 at 1 A·g-1. Notably, the symmetrical NBCPB-650-1 supercapacitor exhibited a high energy density of 9 Wh·kg-1 at the power density of 100 W·kg-1. This study not only presents the potential application of NBCPB-650-1 material in CO2 capture and electrochemical energy storage, but also offers a new insight into easy-to-scale production of heteroatomic-modified porous biochar.

Abstract
The matching of long cycle life, high power density, and high energy density has been an inevitable requirement for the development of efficient anode materials for lithium-ion capacitors (LICs). Here, we introduce an N-doped carbon nanotube hollow polyhedron structure (Co3O4-CNT-800) with high specific surface area and active sites, which is anchored with two-dimensional (2D) Ti3C2Tx nanosheets with metallic conductivity and abundant surface functional groups by electrostatic adsorption to form a hierarchical multilevel hollow semi-covered framework structure. Benefiting from the synergistic effect between Co3O4-CNT-800 and Ti3C2Tx, the composites exhibit superior energy storage efficiency and long cycling stability. The Co3O4-CNT-800/Ti3C2Tx electrodes exhibit a high specific capacity of 817C/g at a current density of 0.5 A/g under the three-electrode system, and the capacity retention rate is 91 % after 5000 cycles at a current density of 2 A/g. Additionally, we assembled Co3O4-CNT-800/Ti3C2Tx as the anode and Activated carbon (AC) cathode to form LIC devices, which showed an electrochemical test result of 90.01 % capacitance retention after 8000 cycles at 2 A/g, and the maximum power density of the LIC was 3000 W/kg and the maximum energy density was 121 Wh/kg. This work pioneered the combination of N-doped carbon nanotube hollow polyhedron structure with two-dimensional Ti3C2Tx, which provides an effective strategy for preparing LIC negative electrode materials with high specific capacitance and long cycling stability.

Abstract
Supercapacitors (SCs) are some of the most promising energy storage devices, but their low energy density is one main weakness. Over the decades, superior electrode materials and suitable electrolytes have been widely developed to enhance the energy storage ability of SCs. Particularly, constructing asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) can extend their electrochemical stable voltage windows (ESVWs) and thus achieve high energy density. However, only full utilization of the electrochemical stable potential windows (ESPWs) of both positive and negative electrodes can endow the ASC devices with a maximum ESVW by using a suitable mass-ratio between two electrodes (the mass-balancing). Nevertheless, insufficient attention is directed to mass-balancing, and even numerous misunderstandings and misuses have appeared. Therefore, in this Perspective, we focus on the mass-balancing: summarize theoretic basis of the mass-balancing, derive relevant relation equations, analyze and discuss the change trends of the specific capacitance and energy density of ASCs with mass-ratios, and finally recommend some guidelines for the normative implementation of the mass-balancing. Especially, the issues related to pseudocapacitive materials, hybrid devices, and different open circuit potentials (OCPs) of the positive and negative electrodes in the mass-balancing are included and emphasized. These analyses and guidelines can be conducive to understanding and performing mass-balancing for developing high-performance SCs.

Abstract
Metal sulfides have attracted extensive attention due to their excellent electrochemical performance. However, issues such as poor conductivity and severe volume expansion during charge and discharge processes affect the applications of sulfides as electrode materials. Here, a combination of coprecipitation and high-temperature sulfidation methods are employed to synthesize a ZnS-SnS2 composite with a hollow cubic structure, which is further composited with reduced graphene oxide (RGO) to form ZnS-SnS2 hollow cubic boxes encapsulated in a conductive framework of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) (denoted as ZnS-SnS2@RGO) for electrode materials. The hollow structure effectively alleviates the pulverization of ZnS-SnS2@RGO caused by volume expansion during charge and discharge processes. The heterogeneous structure formed by ZnS and SnS2 effectively reduces the electron transfer resistance of the material. The use of RGO wrapping enhances the conductivity of the ZnS-SnS2 hollow cubic boxes, and RGO's dispersion effect on the ZnS-SnS2 cubes improves particle agglomeration, further mitigating volume expansion of the material. These results indicate the outstanding electrochemical performance of heterostructural ZnS-SnS2 hollow cubic electrodes encapsulated with reduced graphene oxide as a conductive framework. The fabrication process provides a novel approach for addressing volume expansion and poor conductivity issues in other pseudocapacitive materials.

Abstract
Improving the morphological structure of active materials is a reliable strategy for the fabrication of high-performance supercapacitor electrodes. In this study, we introduce a feasible approach to constructing the graphene/polypyrrole (PPy) composite film implanted onto the current collector through a two-step electrochemical deposition method utilizing MnO2 as an intermediary template. The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) hydrogel film is first hydrothermally grown on a carbon cloth (CC) substrate to obtain a porous rGO@CC electrode on which MnO2 is electrodeposited. Then the as-prepared rGO/MnO2@CC electrode is subjected to the electrochemical polymerization of pyrrole, with MnO2 acting as an oxidizing template to facilitate the oxidative polymerization of pyrrole, ultimately yielding an rGO/PPy composite film on CC. The PPy synthesized via this methodology exhibits a distinctive interconnected structure, resulting in superior electrochemical performance compared with the electrode with PPy directly electrodeposited on rGO@CC. The optimized electrode achieves an impressive specific capacitance of 583.6 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 and retains 83% of its capacitance at 20 A g-1, with a capacitance loss of only 9.5% after 5000 charge-discharge cycles. The corresponding all-solid-state supercapacitor could provide a high energy density of 22.5 Wh kg-1 and a power density of 4.6 kW kg-1, with a capacitance retention of 82.7% after 5000 charge-discharge cycles. Furthermore, the device also demonstrates good flexibility performance upon bending at 90 and 180°. This work presents an innovative method for the preparation of carbon material/conducting polymer electrodes with specific structural characteristics and superior performance.

Abstract
Three-dimensional asymmetric supercapacitors (3D ASC) have garnered significant attention due to their high operating window, theoretical energy density, and circularity. However, the practical application of 3D electrode materials is limited by brittleness and excessive dead volume. Therefore, we propose a controlled contraction strategy that regulates the pore structure of 3D electrode materials, eliminates dead volume in the 3D skeleton structure, and enhances mechanical strength. In this study to obtain reduced graphene oxide/manganese dioxide (rGO/MnO2) and reduced graphene oxide/carbon nanotube (rGO/CNT) composite aerogels with a stable and compact structure. MnO2 and CNT as nanogaskets, preventing the self-stacking of graphene nanosheets during the shrinkage process. Additionally, the high specific capacitor nanogaskets significantly enhance the specific energy density of the rGO aerogel electrode. The prepared rGO/MnO2//rGO/CNT 3D ASC exhibits a high mass-specific capacitance of 216.15 F g-1, a high mass energy density of 74 Wh kg-1 at 3.5 A g-1, and maintains a retention rate of capacitance at 99.89 % after undergoing 10,000 cycles of charge and discharge at 5 A g-1. The versatile and integrated assembly of 3D ASC units is achieved through the utilization of the robust mechanical structure of rGO-based aerogel electrodes, employing a mortise and tenon structural design.

Abstract
Conductive metal-organic frameworks (c-MOFs) and ionic liquids (ILs) have emerged as auspicious combinations for high-performance supercapacitors. However, the nanoconfinement from c-MOFs and high viscosity of ILs slow down the charging process. This hindrance can, however, be resolved by adding solvent. Here, constant-potential molecular simulations are performed to scrutinize the solvent impact on charge storage and charging dynamics of MOF-IL-based supercapacitors. Conditions for >100% enhancement in capacity and ≈6 times increase in charging speed are found. These improvements are confirmed by synthesizing near-ideal c-MOFs and developing multiscale models linking molecular simulations to electrochemical measurements. Fundamentally, the findings elucidate that the solvent acts as an "ionophobic agent" to induce a substantial enhancement in charge storage, and as an "ion traffic police" to eliminate convoluted counterion and co-ion motion paths and create two distinct ion transport highways to accelerate charging dynamics. This work paves the way for the optimal design of MOF supercapacitors.

Abstract
Wood-conducting polymer materials have been widely used as supercapacitor electrode; however, it remains challenging to achieve a simple method to improve the homogeneity of the conductive material on wood and to reach high mass loading. Herein, a novel "pore-making, active substance-filling, densification (dissolution, in-situ polymerization of polyaniline (PANI), self-shrinking)" strategy is proposed for the preparation of wood electrodes with a high mass loading (41.4 wt%) and homogeneity. Ingeniously, ZnCl2 as a dissolving agent and pore-making agent to treat delignified wood can generate more pores on the wood, which is more conducive to the penetration of aniline small molecules, besides, the dissolved fine fibers can be entangled with more PANI, which can improve the loading and homogeneity of PANI. After drying treatment, there will be shrinkage again, playing a certain physical densification effect on the large lumen. The optical electrode was RWP2 showing high electrochemical performance (2328.9 mF/cm2, 1 mA/cm2), and stability (5000 cycles, 89.3 %). Moving forward, the RWP2//RWP2 SSC showed an excellent energy density of 164.24 μwh/cm2 at a power density of 250 μw/cm2. Remarkably, the simple and versatile strategy of designing wood-based materials with high mass loading provides new research ideas for realizing multifunctional applications.

Highly sensitive detection of multiple antiviral drugs using graphitized hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes/ionic liquids-based electrochemical sensors.

Abstract
Global outbreaks and the spread of viral diseases in the recent years have led to a rapid increase in the usage of antiviral drugs (ATVs), the residues and metabolites of which are discharged into the natural environment, posing a serious threat to human health. There is an urgent need to develop sensitive and rapid detection tools for multiple ATVs. In this study, we developed a highly sensitive electrochemical sensor comprising a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with graphitized hydroxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (G-MWCNT-OH) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMIMPF6, IL) for the detection of six ATVs including famciclovir (FCV), remdesivir (REM), favipiravir (FAV), hydroxychloroquine sulfate (HCQ), cepharanthine (CEP) and molnupiravir (MOL). The morphology and structure of the G-MWCNT-OH/IL nanocomposites were characterized comprehensively, and the electroactive surface area and electron conductivity of G-MWCNT-OH/IL/GCE were determined using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The thermodynamic stability and non-covalent interactions between the G-MWCNT-OH and IL were evaluated through quantum chemical simulation calculations, and the mechanism of ATV detection using the G-MWCNT-OH/IL/GCE was thoroughly examined. The detection conditions were optimized to improve the sensitivity and stability of electrochemical sensors. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the G-MWCNT-OH/IL/GCE exhibited excellent electrocatalytic performance and detected the ATVs over a wide concentration range (0.01-120 μM). The limit of detections (LODs) were 42.3 nM, 55.4 nM, 21.9 nM, 15.6 nM, 10.6 nM, and 3.2 nM for FCV, REM, FAV, HCQ, CEP, and MOL, respectively. G-MWCNT-OH/IL/GCE was also highly stable and selective to the ATVs in the presence of multiple interfering analytes. This sensor exhibited great potential for enabling the quantitative detection of multiple ATVs in actual water environment.

Abstract
The high surface-area-to-volume ratio of colloidal quantum dots (QDs) positions them as promising materials for high-performance supercapacitor electrodes. However, the challenge lies in achieving a highly accessible surface area, while maintaining good electrical conductivity. An efficient supercapacitor demands a dense yet highly porous structure that facilitates efficient ion-surface interactions and supports fast charge mobility. Here we demonstrate the successful development of additive-free ultrahigh energy density electric double-layer capacitors based on quantum dot hierarchical nanopore (QDHN) structures. Lead sulfide QDs are assembled into QDHN structures that strike a balance between electrical conductivity and efficient ion diffusion by employing meticulous control over inter-QD distances without any additives. Using ionic liquid as the electrolyte, the high-voltage ultrathin-film microsupercapacitors achieve a remarkable combination of volumetric energy density (95.6 mWh cm-3) and power density (13.5 W cm-3). This achievement is attributed to the intrinsic capability of QDHN structures to accumulate charge carriers efficiently. These findings introduce innovative concepts for leveraging colloidal nanomaterials in the advancement of high-performance energy storage devices.

Abstract
The redox stabilities of different oxygen donor solvents (C═O, P═O and S═O) and lithium salt anions for supercapacitors (SCs) electrolytes have been compared by calculating the frontier molecular orbital energy. Among six lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB)-based mono-solvent electrolytes, the dilute LiDFOB-1,4-butyrolactone (GBL) electrolyte exhibits the highest operating voltage but suffers from electrolyte breakdown at elevated temperatures. Trimethyl phosphate (TMP) exhibits the highest redox stability and a strongly negative electrostatic potential (ESP), making it suitable for promoting the dissolution of LiDFOB as expected. Therefore, TMP is selected as a co-solvent into LiDFOB-GBL electrolyte to regulate Li+ solvation structure and improve the operability of electrolytes at high temperatures. The electrochemical stable potential window (ESPW) of 0.5 m LiDFOB-G/T(5/5) hybrid electrolyte can reach 5.230 V. The activated carbon (AC)-based symmetric SC using 0.5 m LiDFOB-G/T(5/5) hybrid electrolyte achieves a high energy density of 54.2 Wh kg-1 at 1.35 kW kg-1 and the capacitance retention reaches 89.2% after 10 000 cycles. The operating voltage of SC can be maintained above 2 V when the temperature rises to 60 °C.

Abstract
Reaction kinetics can be improved by the enhanced electrical contact between different components growing symbiotically. But so far, due to the necessity for material synthesis conditions match, the component structures of cooperative growth are similar, and the materials are of the same type. The collaborative growth of high-reaction kinetics composite homogeneous core-shell heterostructure between various materials is innovatively proposed with different structures in one step. The NiCo-LDH and PPy successfully symbiotically grow on activated carbon fiber fabric in one step. The open channel structure of the NiCo-LDH nanosheets is preserved while PPy effectively wrapped around the NiCo-LDH. The well-defined nanostructure with abundant active sites and convenient ion diffusion paths is favorable for electrolyte entry into the entire nanoarrays. In addition, owing to the enhanced electronic interaction between different components through XPS analysis, the NiCo-LDH@PPy electrode shows outstanding reaction kinetics and structural stability. The as-synthesized NiCo-LDH@PPy exhibited excellent super-capacitive storage capabilities, robust capacitive activity, and good rate survival. Furthermore, an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device made of NiCo-LDH@PPy and activated carbon (AC) is able to maintain a long cycle life while achieving high power and energy densities.

Abstract
In this work, a novel high entropy hydroxide NiCoMoMnZn-layered double hydroxide(LDH) is synthesized as an electrode material for supercapacitors using a novel template re-etching method to promote the energy density. As a positive electrode material for supercapacitors, NiCoMoMnZn-LDH has the advantage of a uniform distribution of elements, high specific surface area, porous and stable structure. More importantly, the specific capacitance can reach 1810.2 F g-1 at the current density of 0.5 A g-1, and the NiCoMoMnZn-LDH//AC HSC assembled from the material has an energy density of up to 62.1 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 475 W kg-1. Moreover, the influence of different compositions on their morphological, structural, and electrochemical properties is investigated based on the characterization results. Then, the synergistic mechanism among the components of the high entropy NiCoMoMnZn-LDH is revealed in detail by DFT calculations. In addition, the synthesis strategy proposed in this work for high-entropy hydroxides exhibits universality. Experimental results show that the proposed strategy successfully avoids not only phase separation and element aggregation in the formation of high entropy materials, but also reduces structural distortion, which is beneficial for efficient and large-scale synthesis of high entropy hydroxides.

Abstract
As the most widely used metal material in supercapacitors, manganese (Mn)-based materials possess the merits of high theoretical capacitance, stable structure as well as environmental friendliness. However, due to poor conductivity and easy accumulation, the practical capacitance of Mn-based materials is far lower than that of theoretical value. Therefore, accurate structural adjustment and controllable strategies are urgently needed to optimize the electrochemical properties of Mn-based materials. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous materials with high specific surface area (SSA), tunable pore size, and controllable structure. These features make them attractive as precursors or scaffold for the synthesis of metal-based materials and composites, which are important for electrochemical energy storage applications. Therefore, a timely and comprehensive review on the classification, design, preparation and application of Mn-based MOFs and their derivatives for supercapacitors has been given in this paper. The recent advancement of Mn-based MOFs and their derivatives applied in supercapacitor electrodes are particularly highlighted. Finally, the challenges faced by Mn-MOFs and their derivatives for supercapacitors are summarized, and strategies to further improve their performance are proposed. The aspiration is that this review will serve as a beneficial compass, guiding the logical creation of Mn-based MOFs and their derivatives in the future.

Abstract
Fast charging is a critical concern for the next generation of electrochemical energy storage devices, driving extensive research on new electrode materials for electrochemical capacitors and micro-supercapacitors. Here we introduce a significant advance in producing thick ruthenium nitride pseudocapacitive films fabricated using a sputter deposition method. These films deliver over 0.8 F cm-2 (~500 F cm-3) with a time constant below 6 s. By utilizing an original electrochemical oxidation process, the volumetric capacitance doubles (1,200 F cm-3) without sacrificing cycling stability. This enables an extended operating potential window up to 0.85 V versus Hg/HgO, resulting in a boost to 3.2 F cm-2 (3,200 F cm-3). Operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy analyses reveal novel insights into the electrochemical oxidation process. The charge storage mechanism takes advantage of the high electrical conductivity and the morphology of cubic ruthenium nitride and Ru phases in the feather-like core, leading to high electrical conductivity in combination with high capacity. Accordingly, we have developed an analysis that relates capacity to time constant as a means of identifying materials capable of retaining high capacity at high charge/discharge rates.

Abstract
A family of hexagonal in-plane chemical ordering (Mo2/3R1/3)2AlB2 (R = Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Lu) i-MAB phases are synthesized with R-3m hexagonal structure. The i-MAB phases with R = Tb to Tm are considered to have a nonlinear ferromagnetic-like coupling magnetic ground state with gradually weakened magnetocrystalline anisotropy due to variant R-R distances and 4f electrons. Their 2D derivatives (2D-MBene) with rare-earth (R) atom vacancies are obtained by chemical etching. The delamination solvent, surface functional terminations, and chemical bond of 2D-MBene can be modified by one-step nitridation in environment-friendly nitrogen instead of ammonia. A phase conversion is caused by nitridation at 973 K from 2D-MBene to Mo2N, leading to the optimized specific capacitance of 229 F g-1. Besides exploring more rare-earth-containing laminated boride systems, this work also demonstrates the promising application of their 2D derivatives with R vacancies in supercapacitors.

Abstract
Developing efficient, lightweight, and durable all-solid-state supercapacitors is crucial for future energy storage systems. The study focuses on optimizing electrode materials to achieve high capacitance and stability. This study introduces a novel two-step pyrolysis process to synthesize activated carbon nanosheets from jute sticks (JAC), resulting in an optimized JAC-2 material with a high yield (≈24%) and specific surface area (≈2600 m2 g-1). Furthermore, an innovative in situ synthesis approach is employed to synthesize hybrid nanocomposites (NiCoLDH-1@JAC-2) by integrating JAC nanosheets with nickel-cobalt-layered double hydroxide nanoflowers (NiCoLDH). These nanocomposites serve as positive electrode materials and JAC-2 as the negative electrode material in all-solid-state asymmetric hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs), exhibiting remarkable performance metrics. The HSCs achieve a specific capacitance of 750 F g-1, a specific capacity of 209 mAh g-1 (at 0.5 A g-1), and an energy density of 100 Wh kg-1 (at 250 W kg-1) using PVA/KOH solid electrolyte, while maintaining outstanding cyclic stability. Importantly, a density functional theory framework is utilized to validate the experimental findings, underscoring the potential of this novel approach for enhancing HSC performance and enabling the large-scale production of transition metal-based layered double hydroxides.

Abstract
Energy harvesting and energy storage are two critical aspects of supporting the energy transition and sustainability. Many studies have been conducted to achieve excellent performance devices for these two purposes. As energy-storing devices, supercapacitors (SCs) have tremendous potential to be applied in several sectors. Some electrochemical characterizations define the performance of SCs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is one of the most powerful analyses to determine the performance of SCs. Some parameters obtained from this analysis include bulk resistance, charge-transfer resistance, total resistance, specific capacitance, response frequency, and response time. This work provides a holistic and comprehensive review of utilizing EIS for SC characterization. Overall, researchers can benefit from this review by gaining a comprehensive understanding of the utilization of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) for characterizing supercapacitors (SCs), enabling them to enhance SC performance and contribute to the advancement of energy harvesting and storage technologies.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZHSCs) have attracted considerable attention because they are inexpensive and safe. However, the inadequate energy densities, power densities, and cycling performance of current ZHSC energy-storage devices are impediments that need to be overcome to enable the further development and commercialization of this technology. To address these issues, in this study, we prepared carbon-based ZHSCs using a series of porous carbon materials derived from Sanhua liquor lees (SLPCs). Among them, the best performance was observed for SLPC-A13, which exhibited excellent properties and a high-surface-area structure (2667 m2 g-1) with abundant micropores. The Zn//SLPC-A13 device was assembled by using 2 mol L-1 ZnSO4, SLPC-A13, and Zn foil as the electrolyte, cathode, and anode, respectively. The Zn//SLPC-A13 device delivered an ultrahigh energy density of 137 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 462 W kg-1. Remarkably, Zn//SLPC-A13 retained 100% of its specific capacitance after 120,000 cycles of long-term charge/discharge testing, with 62% retained after 250,000 cycles. This outstanding performance is primarily attributed to the SLPC-A13 carbon material, which promotes the rapid adsorption and desorption of ions, and the charge-discharge process, which roughens the Zn anode in a manner that improves reversible Zn-ion plating/stripping efficiency. This study provides ideas for the preparation of ZHSC cathode materials.

Abstract
Various graphene derivatives have been known as electrode-active materials for fabricating supercapacitors. Interconnected graphene networks with adjustable porous structures, i.e., 3D graphene aerogels (GAs), can control the restacking of graphene sheets very well and, thus, lead to the enhanced performance supercapacitors. In this study, carbohydrates (sucrose and fructose) were used to make two types of 3D porous carbohydrates-graphene aerogels, sucrose-graphene aerogel (SCR) and fructose-graphene aerogel (FRC). Carbohydrates operate as a cross-linking and reductant agent. Voltammograms of supercapacitor electrodes based on the FRC and SCR indicate a more rectangular shape with a larger area and a superior current than the GA (graphene aerogel without using carbohydrates) electrode. They have better capacitive performance, more electron transportation ability, and higher specific capacitance (CS) values than GA. The supercapacitor electrodes based on FRC, SCR, and GA demonstrate the CS values of 257.2 F g -1, 221.0 F g -1, and 95 F g -1 at ѵ = 10 mV.s-1, respectively. Improvement in the performance of SCR and FRC supercapacitor electrodes, in comparison to GA, is attributed to the porous interconnected feature of their structures and their suitable available surface area, which facilitates electron and ion transportation throughout graphene networks. These supercapacitors also show excellent stability after recording 5000 consecutive voltammograms.

Abstract
New binary carbon composites (GDY-NCNTs and GDY-CNTs) with a three-dimensional porous structure, which are synthesized by an in situ growth method, are adopted in this article. The GDY-NCNTs composites exhibit excellent specific capacitance performance (679 F g-1, 2 mV s-1, 139% increase compared to GDY-CNTs) and good cycling stability (with a capacity retention rate of up to 116% after 10000 cycles). The three-dimensional porous structure not only promotes ion transfer and increases the effective specific surface area to improve its specific capacitance performance but also adapts to the volume expansion and contraction during the charging and discharging process to improve its cycling stability. The presence of nitrogen doping in the carbon nanotubes of GDY-NCNTs increases the surface defects of the composites, provides more electrochemical points, and improves the surface wettability of the composites, further improving the electrochemical performance of the composites.

Abstract
With the continuous development of green energy, society is increasingly demanding advanced energy storage devices. Manganese-based asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) can deliver high energy density while possessing high power density. However, the structural instability hampers the wider application of manganese dioxide in ASCs. A novel MnO2-based electrode material was designed in this study. We synthesized a MnO2/carbon cloth electrode, CC@NMO, with NH4+ ion pre-intercalation through a one-step hydrothermal method. The pre-intercalation of NH4+ stabilizes the MnO2 interlayer structure, expanding the electrode stable working potential window to 0-1.1 V and achieving a remarkable mass specific capacitance of 181.4 F g-1. Furthermore, the ASC device fabricated using the CC@NMO electrode and activated carbon electrode exhibits excellent electrochemical properties. The CC@NMO//AC achieves a high energy density of 63.49 Wh kg-1 and a power density of 949.8 W kg-1. Even after cycling 10,000 times at 10 A g-1, the device retains 81.2% of its capacitance. This work sheds new light on manganese dioxide-based asymmetric supercapacitors and represents a significant contribution for future research on them.

Abstract
The design and exploration of advanced materials as a durable multifunctional electrocatalyst toward sustainable energy generation and storage development is the most perdurable challenge in the domain of renewable energy research. Herein, a facile in situ solvothermal approach has been adopted to prepare a methylviologen-regulated crystalline metal phosphonate compound, [C12H14N2][Ni(C11H11N2)(H2hedp)2]2•6H2O (NIT1), (H4hedp = 1-hydroxyethane 1,1-diphosphonic acid) and well characterized by several techniques. The as-prepared NIT1 displays excellent bifunctional electrocatalytic activity with dynamic stability toward oxygen evolution reaction (η10 = 288 mV) and hydrogen evolution reaction (η10 = 228 mV) in alkaline (1.0 M KOH) and acidic mediums (0.5 M H2SO4), respectively. Such a low overpotential and Tafel slope (68 mV/dec for OER; 56 mV/dec for HER) along with long-term durability up to 20 h of NIT1 make it superior to benchmark the electrocatalyst and various nonprecious metal-based catalysts under similar experimental condition. Further, the electrochemical supercapacitor measurements (in three-electrode system) reveal that the NIT1 electrode possesses much higher specific capacity of 187.6 C g-1 at a current density of 2 A g-1 (272 C g-1 at 5 mV s-1) with capacitance retention of 75.2% over 10,000 cycles at 14 A g-1 (Coulombic efficiency > 99%) in 6 M KOH electrolyte medium. Finally for a practical application, an asymmetric supercapacitor device (coin cell) is assembled by NIT1 material. The as-fabricated device delivers the maximum energy density of 39.4 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 450 W kg-1 and achieves a wide voltage window of 1.80 V. Notably, the device endures a remarkable cycle performance with cyclic retention of 92% (Coulombic efficiency > 99%) even after 14,000 charge/discharge cycles at 10 A g-1. Nevertheless, the extraordinary electrochemical activities toward OER and HER as well as the high-performance device fabrication for LED illumination of such a noble metal-free lower-dimensional charge-transfer compound are truly path breaking and would be promising for the development of advanced multifunctional materials.

Abstract
Crystal phase, a critical structural characteristic beyond the morphology, size, dimension, facet, etc., determines the physicochemical properties of nanomaterials. As a group of layered nanomaterials with polymorphs, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have attracted intensive research attention due to their phase-dependent properties. Therefore, great efforts have been devoted to the phase engineering of TMDs to synthesize TMDs with controlled phases, especially unconventional/metastable phases, for various applications in electronics, optoelectronics, catalysis, biomedicine, energy storage and conversion, and ferroelectrics. Considering the significant progress in the synthesis and applications of TMDs, we believe that a comprehensive review on the phase engineering of TMDs is critical to promote their fundamental studies and practical applications. This Review aims to provide a comprehensive introduction and discussion on the crystal structures, synthetic strategies, and phase-dependent properties and applications of TMDs. Finally, our perspectives on the challenges and opportunities in phase engineering of TMDs will also be discussed.

Xu L, Liu Y, Xuan X, Xu X, Li Y, Lu T, Pan L. Heterointerface regulation of covalent organic framework-anchored graphene via a solvent-free strategy for high-performance supercapacitor and hybrid capacitive deionization electrodes. MATERIALS HORIZONS 2024. [PMID: 38592376 DOI: 10.1039/d4mh00161c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with customizable geometry and redox centers are an ideal candidate for supercapacitors and hybrid capacitive deionization (HCDI). However, their poor intrinsic conductivity and micropore-dominated pore structures severely impair their electrochemical performance, and the synthesis process using organic solvents brings serious environmental and cost issues. Herein, a 2D redox-active pyrazine-based COF (BAHC-COF) was anchored on the surface of graphene in a solvent-free strategy for heterointerface regulation. The as-prepared BAHC-COF/graphene (BAHCGO) nanohybrid materials possess high-speed charge transport offered by the graphene carrier and accelerated electrolyte ion migration within the BAHC-COF, allowing ions to effectively occupy ion storage sites inside BAHC. As a result, the BAHCGO//activated carbon asymmetric supercapacitor achieves a high energy output of 61.2 W h kg-1 and a satisfactory long-term cycling life. More importantly, BAHCGO-based HCDI possesses a high salt adsorption capacity (SAC) of 67.5 mg g-1 and excellent long-term desalination/regeneration stability. This work accelerates the application of COF-based materials in the fields of energy storage and water treatment.

Abstract
Supercapacitor is an important energy storage device widely used in the automobile industry, military production, and communication equipment because of its fast charge-discharge rate, and high power density. Herein, carbon quantum dots modified and Y3+ doped Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4 (NiY@CQDs) nanospheres are prepared by a solvothermal method and used as an electrode material. The electrochemical properties of NiY@CQDs were measured in a three-electrode system. An asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) cell was assembled with activated carbon (AC) as the anode and NiY@CQDs as the cathode. The electrochemical properties of the ASC device were measured in a two-electrode system. Experimental results show the shape of NiY@CQDs is petal-shaped and the introducing carbon quantum dots and doping Y3+ significantly increases the specific surface area, conductivity, and specific capacitance of Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4. The mass-specific capacitance of NiY@CQDs reaches up to 2944 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1. The asymmetric supercapacitor of NiY@CQDs//AC has a high energy density of 138.65 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 1500 W kg-1, displaying a wide range of application prospects in the energy storage area.

Abstract
Exploitation of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials as active electrodes for energy storage or conversion is reasonably challenging owing to their poor robustness against various acidic/basic conditions and conventionally low electric conductivity. Keeping this in perspective, herein, a 3D ultramicroporous triazolate Fe-MOF (abbreviated as Fe-MET) is judiciously employed using cheap and commercially available starting materials. Fe-MET possesses ultra-stability against various chemical environments (pH-1 to pH-14 with varied organic solvents) and is highly electrically conductive (σ = 0.19 S m-1) in one fell swoop. By taking advantage of the properties mentioned above, Fe-MET electrodes give prominence to electrochemical capacitor (EC) performance by delivering an astounding gravimetric (304 F g-1) and areal (181 mF cm-2) capacitance at 0.5 A g-1 current density with exceptionally high cycling stability. Implementation of Fe-MET as an exclusive (by not using any conductive additives) EC electrode in solid-state energy storage devices outperforms most of the reported MOF-based EC materials and even surpasses certain porous carbon and graphene materials, showcasing superior capabilities and great promise compared to various other alternatives as energy storage materials.

Abstract
Bismuth (Bi) exhibits a high theoretical capacity, excellent electrical conductivity properties, and remarkable interlayer spacing, making it an ideal electrode material for supercapacitors. However, during the charge and discharge processes, Bi is prone to volume expansion and pulverization, resulting in a decline in the capacitance. Deposition of a nonmetal on its surface is considered an effective way to modulate its morphology and electronic structure. Herein, we employed the chemical vapor deposition technique to fabricate Se-decorated Bi nanosheets on a nickel foam (NF) substrate. Various characterizations indicated that the deposition of Se on Bi nanosheets regulated their surface morphology and chemical state, while sustaining their pristine phase structure. Electrochemical tests demonstrated that Se-decorated Bi nanosheets exhibited a 51.1% improvement in capacity compared with pristine Bi nanosheets (1313 F/g compared to 869 F/g at a current density of 5 A/g). The energy density of the active material in an assembled asymmetric supercapacitor could reach 151.2 Wh/kg at a power density of 800 W/kg. These findings suggest that Se decoration is a promising strategy to enhance the capacity of the Bi nanosheets.

Abstract
An electrochemical capacitor configuration extends its operational potential window by leveraging diverse charge storage mechanisms on the positive and negative electrodes. Beyond harnessing capacitive, pseudocapacitive, or Faradaic energy storage mechanisms and enhancing electrochemical performance at high rates, achieving a balance of stored charge across electrodes poses a significant challenge over a wide range of charge-discharge currents or sweep rates. Consequently, fabricating hybrid and asymmetric supercapacitors demands precise electrochemical evaluations of electrode materials and the development of a reliable methodology. This work provides an overview of fundamental aspects related to charge-storage mechanisms and electrochemical methods, aiming to discern the contribution of each process. Subsequently, the electrochemical properties, including the working potential windows, rate capability profiles, and stabilities, of various families of electrode materials are explored. It is then demonstrated, how charge balancing between electrodes falters across a broad range of charge-discharge currents or sweep rates. Finally, a methodology for achieving charge balance in hybrid and asymmetric supercapacitors is proposed, outlining multiple conditions dependent on loaded mass and charge-discharge current. Two step-by-step tutorials and model examples for applying this methodology are also provided. The proposed methodology is anticipated to stimulate continued dialogue among researchers, fostering advancements in achieving stable and high-performance supercapacitor devices.

Abstract
Precise control of pore volume and size of carbon nanoscale materials is crucial for achieving high capacity and rate performances of charge/discharge. In this paper, starting from the unique mechanism of the role of In, Zn combination, and carboxyl functional groups in the formation of the lumen and pore size, the composition of InZn-MIL-68 is regulated to precisely tune the diameter and wall pore size of the hollow carbon tubes. The hollow carbon nanotubes (CNT) with high-capacity storage and fast exchange of Na+ ions and charges are prepared. The CNT possess ultra-high specific capacitance and ultra-long cycle life and also offer several times higher Na+ ion storage capacity and rate performance than the existing CNTs. Density functional theory calculations and tests reveal that these superior characteristics are attributed to the spacious hollow structure, which provides sufficient space for Na+ storage and the tube wall's distinctive porosity of tube wall as well as open ends for facilitating Na+ rapid desorption. It is believed that precise control of sub-nanopore volume and pore size by tuning the composition of the carbon materials derived from bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) will establish the basis for the future development of high-energy density and high-power density supercapacitors and batteries.

Abstract
The core strategy for constructing ultra-high-performance hybrid supercapacitors is the design of reasonable and effective electrode materials. Herein, a facile solvothermal-calcination strategy is developed to deposit the phosphate-functionalized Fe2O3 (P-Fe2O3) nanosheets on the reduced graphene oxide (rGO) framework. Benefiting from the superior conductivity of rGO and the high conductivity and fast charge storage dynamics of phosphate ions, the synthesized P-Fe2O3/rGO anode exhibits remarkable electrochemical performance with a high capacitance of 586.6 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 and only 4.0% capacitance loss within 10 000 cycles. In addition, the FeMoO4/Fe2O3/rGO nanosheets are fabricated by utilizing Fe2O3/rGO as the precursor. The introduction of molybdates successfully constructs open ion channels between rGO layers and provides abundant active sites, enabling the excellent electrochemical features of FeMoO4/Fe2O3/rGO cathode with a splendid capacity of 475.4 C g-1 at 1 A g-1. By matching P-Fe2O3/rGO with FeMoO4/Fe2O3/rGO, the constructed hybrid supercapacitor presents an admirable energy density of 82.0 Wh kg-1 and an extremely long working life of 95.0% after 20 000 cycles. Furthermore, the continuous operation of the red light-emitting diode for up to 30 min demonstrates the excellent energy storage properties of FeMoO4/Fe2O3/rGO//P-Fe2O3/rGO, which provides multiple possibilities for the follow-up energy storage applications of the iron-based composites.

Abstract
An efficient approach to increase the energy density of supercapacitors is to prepare electrode materials with larger specific capacitance and increase the potential difference between the positive and negative electrodes in the device. Herein, an organic molecular electrode (OME) is prepared by anchoring 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione (PD), which possesses two pyridine rings and an electron-deficient conjugated system, onto reduced graphene oxide (rGO). Because of the electron-deficient conjugated structure of PD molecule, PD/rGOs exhibit a more positive redox peak potential along with the advantages of high capacitance-controlled behaviour and fast reaction kinetics. Additionally, the small energy gap between the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) leads to increased conductivity in PD/rGO. To assemble the asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC), a two-dimensional metal carbide, as known as MXene, with a chemical composition of Ti3C2Tx is selected as the negative electrode due to its exceptional performance, and PD/rGO-0.5 is employed as the positive electrode. Consequently, the working voltage is expanded up to 1.8 V. Through further electrochemical measurements, the assembled ASC (PD/rGO-0.5//Ti3C2Tx) achieves a remarkable energy density of 36.8 Wh kg-1. Remarkably, connecting two ASCs in series can power 73 LEDs, showcasing its promising potential for energy storage applications.

Abstract
As one of the most promising energy storage devices, supercapacitors exhibit a higher power density than batteries. However, its low energy density usually requires high-performance electrode materials. Although the RuO2 material shows desirable properties, its high cost and toxicity significantly limit its application in supercapacitors. Recent developments demonstrated that Co-based materials have emerged as a promising alternative to RuO2 for supercapacitors due to their low cost, favorable redox reversibility and environmental friendliness. In this paper, the morphological control and performance engineering of Co-based materials are systematically reviewed. Firstly, the principle of supercapacitors is briefly introduced, and the characteristics and advantages of pseudocapacitors are emphasized. The special forms of cobalt-based materials are introduced, including 1D, 2D and 3D nanomaterials. After that, the ways to enhance the properties of cobalt-based materials are discussed, including adding conductive materials, constructing heterostructures and doping heteroatoms. Particularly, the influence of morphological control and modification methods on the electrochemical performances of materials is highlighted.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks, as a kind of advanced nanoporous materials with metal centers and organic linkers, have been applied as promising electrode materials in energy storage devices. In this study, we are successfully prepared cobalt sulfide nanosheets (CoS) derived from the metal-organic framework on nickel foam (NF). The prepared electrodes are characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and Barrett-Joyner-Halenda and electrochemical methods like voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The CoS/NF electrode demonstrates a high specific capacity of 377.5 mA h g-1 (1359 C g-1) at the current density of 2 A g-1, considerable rate performance and excellent durability (89.4% after 4000 cycles). A hybrid supercapacitor is assembled using CoS/NF as the positive electrode and activated carbon as the negative electrode, it shows a high energy density of 57.4 W h kg-1 at a power density of 405.2 W kg-1. The electrochemical results suggest that the CoS nanosheet arrays would possess excellent potential for applications in energy storage devices.

Abstract
Transition metal sulfides and selenides are common electrode materials in supercapacitors. However, the slow redox kinetics and structural collapse during charge-discharge cycles of single-component materials have impeded their electrochemical performance. In this study, hollow Co9S8 nanotubes were synthesized through a rational morphology design approach. Subsequently, NiSe2 or Co0.85Se was electrodeposited onto the Co9S8 nanotubes, yielding two core-shell heterostructure arrays, namely, NiSe2@Co9S8 and Co0.85Se@Co9S8. By fully leveraging the advantages and synergistic effects of these dual-phase heterostructures, the NiSe2@Co9S8 and Co0.85Se@Co9S8 configurations demonstrated outstanding areal capacitances of 12.54 F cm-2 and 9.61 F cm-2, respectively, at 2 mA cm-2. When integrated with activated carbon in hybrid supercapacitors, the NiSe2@Co9S8//AC and Co0.85Se@Co9S8//AC devices exhibited excellent energy storage performance, with energy densities of 0.959 mW h at 1.681 mW and 0.745 mW h at 1.569 mW, respectively. Additionally, these hybrid supercapacitors demonstrated remarkable cycling stability, with capacitance retention of 87.5% and 89.5% after 5000 cycles for NiSe2@Co9S8//AC and Co0.85Se@Co9S8//AC, respectively. This study provides a novel approach to the synthesis of multiphase core-shell heterostructures based on metal sulfides and selenides, opening new avenues for future research.

Abstract
Capacitors with zinc ions, with excellent stabilities, low cost, and high energy density, are expected to be promising energy storage devices. However, the development of zinc-ion capacitors is quietly restricted by low specific capacity and cycling stability. Herein, to overcome these limitations, honeycomb-structured S, N-codoped carbon (SNPC) is constructed by one-pot calcination of waste corn bracts and thiourea. The honeycomb structure of SNPC is demonstrated to provide abundant active sites that can enhance the extron/ion transport, conductivity for high power export, and ion adsorption capacity in energy storage applications, leading to a higher electrochemical performance achieved. The electrolytes of zinc salt have also been studied. It reveals that the SNPC electrode presents the best electrochemical performance in a 2 M ZnSO4 and 0.5 M ZnCl2 electrolyte mixture because in the electrolyte mixture, Cl- can replace the existing bound water in the solvation structure to form an anion-type water-free solvation structure ZnCl42-. The SNPC-800 electrode with a highly improved surface area (∼909.0 m2 g-1) is proved to be more suitable as the electrode than other materials. Aqueous zinc-ion capacitors (ZICs) have been assembled by the honeycomb-structured SNPC-800 as the cathode, which can achieve a relatively wide working voltage range of 0.1-1.8 V. The SNPC-800 ZICs exhibit a superior specific capacity of 179.1 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1. The energy density of SNPC-800 ZICs reaches an impressive value of 89.6 Wh kg-1 at 53.8 W kg-1, and it sustains 28.3 Wh kg-1 at 1997.6 W kg-1. In addition, there is 99.8% capacity retention in the SNPC-800 ZICs over 5000 cycles. The absorption energy in SPNC is much higher than that in undoped CPC, as confirmed by density functional theory, which reveals that introducing of heteroatoms (S, N) has a comparatively active advantage at increasing the Zn-ion storage capacity. This work proposes a practical strategy for the effective recycling of waste biomass materials into honeycomb carbon electrode materials. Moreover, the honeycomb carbon-based ZICs with excellent electrochemical performance and long-term cycling stability possess great potential to be a superior cathode in practical applications.

Abstract
As one of the key components of supercapacitors, electrolyte is intensively investigated to promote the fast development of the energy supply system under extremely cold conditions. However, high freezing point and sluggish ion transport kinetics for routine electrolytes hinder the application of supercapacitors at low temperatures. Resultantly, the liquid electrolyte should be oriented to reduce the freezing point, accompanied by other superior characteristics, such as large ionic conductivity, low viscosity and outstanding chemical stability. In this review, the intrinsically physical parameters and microscopic structure of low-temperature electrolytes are discussed thoroughly, then the previously reported strategies that are used to address the associated issues are summarized subsequently from the aspects of aqueous and non-aqueous electrolytes (organic electrolyte and ionic liquid electrolyte). In addition, some advanced spectroscopy techniques and theoretical simulation to better decouple the solvation structure of electrolytes and reveal the link between the key physical parameters and microscopic structure are briefly presented. Finally, the further improvement direction is put forward to provide a reference and guidance for the follow-up research.

Abstract
Carbon-based supercapacitor electrodes are generally restricted in energy density, as they rely exclusively on electric double-layer capacitance (EDLC). The introduction of redox-active organic molecules to obtain pseudocapacitance is a promising route to develop electrode materials with improved energy densities. In this work, we develop a porous nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide and 9,10-phenanthrenequinone composite (N-HtrGO/PQ) via a facile one-step physical adsorption method. The electrochemical evaluation of N-HtrGO/PQ using cyclic voltammetry showed a high capacitance of 605 F g-1 in 1 M H2SO4 when the composite consisted of 30% 9,10-phenanthrenequinone and 70% N-HtrGO. The measured capacitance significantly exceeded pure N-HtrGO without the addition of redox-active molecules (257 F g-1). In addition to promising capacitance, the N-HtrGO/30PQ composite showed a capacitance retention of 94.9% following 20,000 charge/discharge cycles. Based on Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, we postulate that the strong π-π interaction between PQ molecules and the N-HtrGO substrate enhances the specific capacitance of the composite by shortening pathways for electron transfer while improving structural stability.

Abstract
Implantable bioelectronic devices (IBDs) have gained attention for their capacity to conformably detect physiological and pathological signals and further provide internal therapy. However, traditional power sources integrated into these IBDs possess intricate limitations such as bulkiness, rigidity, and biotoxicity. Recently, artificial "tissue batteries" (ATBs) have diffusely developed as artificial power sources for IBDs manufacturing, enabling comprehensive biological-activity monitoring, diagnosis, and therapy. ATBs are on-demand and designed to accommodate the soft and confining curved placement space of organisms, minimizing interface discrepancies, and providing ample power for clinical applications. This review presents the near-term advancements in ATBs, with a focus on their miniaturization, flexibility, biodegradability, and power density. Furthermore, it delves into material-screening, structural-design, and energy density across three distinct categories of TBs, distinguished by power supply strategies. These types encompass innovative energy storage devices (chemical batteries and supercapacitors), power conversion devices that harness power from human-body (biofuel cells, thermoelectric nanogenerators, bio-potential devices, piezoelectric harvesters, and triboelectric devices), and energy transfer devices that receive and utilize external energy (radiofrequency-ultrasound energy harvesters, ultrasound-induced energy harvesters, and photovoltaic devices). Ultimately, future challenges and prospects emphasize ATBs with the indispensability of bio-safety, flexibility, and high-volume energy density as crucial components in long-term implantable bioelectronic devices.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with flexible periodic skeletons and ordered nanoporous structures have attracted much attention as potential candidate electrode materials for green energy storage and efficient seawater desalination. Further improving the intrinsic electronic conductivity and releasing porosity of COF-based materials is a necessary strategy to improve their electrochemical performance. Herein, the employed graphene as the conductive substrate to in situ grow 2D redox-active COF (TFPDQ-COF) with redox activity under solvent-free conditions to prepare TFPDQ-COF/graphene (TFPDQGO) nanohybrids and explores their application in both supercapacitor and hybrid capacitive deionization (HCDI). By optimizing the hybridization ratio, TFPDQGO exhibits a large specific capacitance of 429.0 F g-1 due to the synergistic effect of the charge transport highway provided by the graphene layers and the abundant redox-active centers contained in the COF skeleton, and the assembled TFPDQGO//activated carbon (AC) asymmetric supercapacitor possesses a high energy output of 59.4 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 950 W kg-1 and good cycling life. Furthermore, the maximum salt adsorption capacity (SAC) of 58.4 mg g-1 and stable regeneration performance is attained for TFPDQGO-based HCDI. This study highlights the new opportunities of COF-based hybrid materials acting as high-performance supercapacitor and HCDI electrode materials.

Abstract
A MOF-MXene-BN three-component heterostructure exhibits impressive pseudocapacitive behavior with fast charge injection facilitated by an ultrathin dielectric h-BN. To address the MOF's low electronic conductivity, a 2D NiCo-MOF is grown on MXene nanosheets, enhancing conductivity and providing abundant redox-active sites. BN (boron nitride) serves a dual purpose, preventing restacking and facilitating charge injection toward NiCo-MOF. Synergistic contributions of 2D materials and a heterostructure with favorable charge injection dynamics among MOF, MXene, and BN contribute to enhanced electrochemical performance. Charge transfer mechanisms are elucidated using distribution of relaxation time technique to analyze complex EIS data and to differentiate electrode kinetics based on their respective relaxation time constants. An asymmetric supercapacitor, MOF-MXene-BN//activated carbon, achieves a specific capacity of 798 C/g, an energy density of 81 Wh/kg at 365 W/kg, and 81% capacitance retention over 5,000 cycles.

Abstract
Elevating the working temperature delivers a simple and universal approach to enhance the energy storage performances of supercapacitors owing to the fundamental improvements in ion transportation kinetics. Among all heating methods, introducing green and sustainable photothermal heating on supercapacitors (SCs) is highly desired yet remains an open challenge, especially for developing an efficient and universal photothermal heating strategy that can be generally applied to arbitrary SC devices. Flash-enabled graphene (FG) absorbers are produced through a simple and facile flash reduction process, which can be coated on the surface of any SC devices to lift their working temperature via a photothermal effect, thus, improving their overall performance, including both power and energy densities. With the systematic temperature-dependent investigation and the in-depth numerical simulation of SC performances, an evident enhancement in capacitance up to 65% can be achieved in photothermally enhanced SC coin cell devices with FG photo-absorbers. This simple, practical, and universal enhancement strategy provides a novel insight into boosting SC performances without bringing complexity in electrode fabrication/optimization. Also, it sheds light on the highly efficient utilization of green and renewable photothermal energies for broad application scenarios, especially for energy storage devices.

Flexible electronic devices, such as supercapacitors (SCs), place high demands on the mechanical properties, ionic conductivity, and electrochemical stability of electrolytes. Hydrogels, which combine flexibility and the advantages of both solid and liquid electrolytes, will meet the demand. Here, we report the synthesis of novel poly(ionic liquid)/polyacrylamide double-network (DN) (PIL/PAM DN) hydrogel electrolytes containing different metal salts via a two-step γ-radiation method. The resultant Li2SO4-1.0/PIL/PAM DN hydrogel electrolyte possesses excellent mechanical properties (tensile strength of 3.64 MPa, elongation at break of 446%) and high ionic conductivity (24.1 mS·cm-1). The corresponding flexible SC based on the Li2SO4-1.0/PIL/PAM DN hydrogel electrolyte (SC-Li2SO4) presents improved ion diffusion, ideal electrochemical double-layer capacitor behavior, good rate capability, and excellent cyclic stability. Moreover, symmetric SC-Li2SO4 achieves a wide operating voltage range of up to 1.5 V, with a maximum energy density of 26.0 W h·kg-1 and a capacitance retention of 94.1% after 10,000 galvanostatic charge-discharge cycles, owing to the deactivation of free water molecules by the synergistic effect of PIL, PAM, and SO42-. Above all, the capacitance of SC-Li2SO4 is well-maintained after overcharge, overdischarge, short circuit, extreme temperature, compression, and bending tests, indicating its high security and flexibility. This work reveals the enormous application potential of PIL-based conductive hydrogel electrolytes for flexible electronic devices.

Abstract
In advanced electronics, supercapacitors (SCs) have received a lot of attention. Nevertheless, it has been shown that different electrode designs that are based on metal sulfides are prone to oxidation, instability, and poor conductance, which severely limits their practical application. We present a very stable, free-standing copper-cobalt sulfide doped with polyaniline as an electrode coated on nickel foam (CuCoS/PANI). The lightweight nickel foam encourages current collection as well as serving as a flexible support. The CuCoS-PANI electrode had a substantially greater 1659 C g-1 capacity at 1.0 A g-1. The asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) can provide an impressive 54 W h kg-1 energy density while maintaining 1150 W kg-1 power. Additionally, when employed as an electrocatalyst in the oxygen evolution reaction, CuCoS/PANI exhibited a 200 mV overpotential and 55 mV dec-1 Tafel slope, demonstrating its effectiveness in facilitating the reaction.

Abstract
Transition metal sulfides are promising electrode materials for supercapacitors due to their excellent electrochemical performance and high conductivity. Unfortunately, the low rate performance and poor cycling stability limited their progress towards commercial applications. Herein, the core-shell structure of MoO42--intercalated LDHs coated on Co9S8 nanotubes was rationally designed and prepared to improve their electrochemical performance and cycling stability by adjusting the composition of LDHs. Compared to NiMo-LDH@Co9S8 and CoMo-LDH@Co9S8, the optimized NiCoMo-LDH@Co9S8 electrode exhibits excellent areal specific capacitance (11 F cm-2 at 3 mA cm-2) and excellent cycling stability (94.4% after 5000 cycles). In addition, asymmetric supercapacitor devices were assembled with NiCoMo-LDH@Co9S8 and activated carbon (AC), which delivered a high energy density of 0.94 mWh cm-2, at a power density of 1.70 mW cm-2, and good cycling stability (89.4% after 5000 cycles). These results indicate that the introduction of MoO42- can enhance the synergistic effect of multiple metals and the synthesized NiCoMo-LDH@Co9S8 core-shell composite has great potential in the development of high-performance electrode materials for supercapacitors.

Abstract
Supercapacitors (SCs) are a novel type of energy storage device that exhibit features such as a short charging time, a long service life, excellent temperature characteristics, energy saving, and environmental protection. The capacitance of SCs depends on the electrode materials. Currently, carbon-based materials, transition metal oxides/hydroxides, and conductive polymers are widely used as electrode materials. However, the low specific capacitance of carbon-based materials, high cost of transition metal oxides/hydroxides, and poor cycling performance of conductive polymers as electrodes limit their applications. Copper-sulfur compounds used as electrode materials exhibit excellent electrical conductivity, a wide voltage range, high specific capacitance, diverse structures, and abundant copper reserves, and have been widely studied in catalysis, sensors, supercapacitors, solar cells, and other fields. This review summarizes the application of copper-sulfur compounds in SCs, details the research directions and development strategies of copper-sulfur compounds in SCs, and analyses and summarizes the research hotspots and outlook, so as to provide a reference and guidance for the use of copper-sulfur compounds.

Abstract
The growing interest in so-called interface coupling strategies arises from their potential to enhance the performance of active electrode materials. Nevertheless, designing a robust coupled interface in nanocomposites for stable electrochemical processes remains a challenge. In this study, an epitaxial growth strategy is proposed by synthesizing sulfide rhenium (ReS2 ) on exfoliated black phosphorus (E-BP) nanosheets, creating an abundance of robust interfacial linkages. Through spectroscopic analysis using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy, the authors investigate the interfacial environment. The well-developed coupled interface and structural stability contribute to the impressive performance of the 3D-printed E-BP@ReS2 -based micro-supercapacitor, achieving a specific capacitance of 47.3 mF cm-2 at 0.1 mA cm-2 and demonstrating excellent long-term cyclability (89.2% over 2000 cycles). Furthermore, density functional theory calculations unveil the positive impact of the strongly coupled interface in the E-BP@ReS2 nanocomposite on the adsorption of H+ ions, showcasing a significantly reduced adsorption energy of -2.17 eV. The strong coupling effect facilitates directional charge delocalization at the interface, enhancing the electrochemical performance of electrodes and resulting in the successful construction of advanced micro-supercapacitors.
