Abstract
The local microenvironment has recently been found to play a major role in the electrocatalytic activity of nanomaterials. Modulating the microenvironment by adding alkali metal cations into the electrolyte can be used to either suppress hydrogen or oxygen evolution, thereby extending the electrochemical window of energy storage systems, or to tune the selectivity of electrocatalysts. MXenes are a large family of two-dimensional transition metal carbides, nitrides, and carbonitrides that have shown potential for use in electrochemical energy storage applications. Due to their negatively charged surfaces, MXenes can accommodate cations and water molecules between the layers. Nevertheless, the nature of the aqueous microenvironment in the MXene interlayer space is poorly understood. Here, we apply Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to probe the hydrogen bonding of intercalated water in Ti3C2Tx as a function of intercalated cation and relative humidity. Substantial changes in the FTIR spectra after cation exchange demonstrate that the hydrogen bonding of water molecules confined between the MXene layers is strongly cation-dependent. Furthermore, the IR absorbance of the confined water correlates with resistivity estimated by 4-point probe measurements and interlayer distance calculated from XRD patterns. This work demonstrates that cation intercalation strongly modulates the confined microenvironment, which can be used to tune the activity or selectivity of electrochemical reactions in the interlayer space of MXenes in the future.

Hierarchically Structured Nb 2O 5 Microflowers with Enhanced Capacity and Fast-Charging Capability for Flexible Planar Sodium Ion Micro-Supercapacitors. NANO-MICRO LETTERS 2024; 16:67. [PMID: 38175485 PMCID: PMC10766898 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-023-01281-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
Highlights Hierarchically structured Nb2O5 microflowers consiste of porous and ultrathin nanosheets. Nb2O5 microflowers exhibit enhanced capacity and rate performance boosting Na ion storage. Planar NIMSCs with charge and kinetics matching show superior areal capacitance and lifespan. Abstract Planar Na ion micro-supercapacitors (NIMSCs) that offer both high energy density and power density are deemed to a promising class of miniaturized power sources for wearable and portable microelectronics. Nevertheless, the development of NIMSCs are hugely impeded by the low capacity and sluggish Na ion kinetics in the negative electrode. Herein, we demonstrate a novel carbon-coated Nb2O5 microflower with a hierarchical structure composed of vertically intercrossed and porous nanosheets, boosting Na ion storage performance. The unique structural merits, including uniform carbon coating, ultrathin nanosheets and abundant pores, endow the Nb2O5 microflower with highly reversible Na ion storage capacity of 245 mAh g−1 at 0.25 C and excellent rate capability. Benefiting from high capacity and fast charging of Nb2O5 microflower, the planar NIMSCs consisted of Nb2O5 negative electrode and activated carbon positive electrode deliver high areal energy density of 60.7 μWh cm−2, considerable voltage window of 3.5 V and extraordinary cyclability. Therefore, this work exploits a structural design strategy towards electrode materials for application in NIMSCs, holding great promise for flexible microelectronics.

Abstract
The flexible thermoelectric (TE) generator has emerged as a superior alternative to traditional batteries for powering wearable electronic devices, as it can efficiently convert skin heat into electricity without any safety concerns. MXene, a highly researched two-dimensional material, is known for its exceptional flexibility, hydrophilicity, metallic conductivity, and processability, among other properties, making it a versatile material for a wide range of applications, including supercapacitors, electromagnetic shielding, and sensors. However, the low intrinsic Seebeck coefficient of MXene due to its metallic conducting nature poses a significant challenge to its TE application. Therefore, improving the Seebeck coefficient remains a primary concern. In this regard, a flexible MXene/organics/TiS2 misfit film was synthesized in this work through organic intercalation, exfoliation, and re-assembly techniques. The absolute value of Seebeck coefficient of the misfit film was significantly enhanced to 44.8 μV K-1, which is five times higher than that of the original MXene film. This enhancement is attributed primarily to the weighted effect of the Seebeck coefficient and possibly to energy-filtering effects at the heterogeneous interfaces. Additionally, the power factor of the misfit film was considerably improved to 77.2 μW m-1 K-2, which is 18 times higher than that of the original MXene film. The maximum output power of the TE device constructed of the misfit film was 95 nW at a temperature difference of 40 K, resulting in a power density of 1.18 W m-2, demonstrating the significant potential of this technology for driving low-energy consumption wearable electronics.

Abstract
We report the in-plane electron transport in the MXenes (i.e., within the MXene layers) as a function of composition using the density-functional tight-binding method, in conjunction with the non-equilibrium Green's functions technique. Our study reveals that all MXene compositions have a linear relationship between current and voltage at lower potentials, indicating their metallic character. However, the magnitude of the current at a given voltage (conductivity) has different trends among different compositions. For example, MXenes without any surface terminations (Ti3C2) exhibit higher conductivity compared to MXenes with surface functionalization. Among the MXenes with -O and -OH termination, those with -O surface termination have lower conductivity than the ones with -OH surface terminations. Interestingly, conductivity changes with the ratio of -O and -OH on the MXene surface. Our calculated I-V curves and their conductivities correlate well with transmission functions and the electronic density of states around the Fermi level. The surface composition-dependent conductivity of the MXenes provides a path to tune the in-plane conductivity for enhanced pseudocapacitive performance.

Abstract
MXene is a magical class of 2D nanomaterials and emerging in many applications in diverse fields. Due to the multiple advantageous characteristics of its fundamental components, such as structural, physicochemical, optical, and occasionally even biological characteristics. However, it is limited in the biomedical industry due to poor physiological stability, decomposition rate, and lack of controlled and sustained drug release. These limitations can be overcome when MXene forms composites with other 2D materials. The efficiency of pure MXene in biomedicine is inferior to that of MXene-based composites. The availability of functionality on the exterior part of MXene has a key role in the modification of their surface and their characteristics. This review provides an extensive discussion on the synthesizing of MXene and the role of the surface functionalities on the efficiency of MXene. In addition, a detailed discussion of the biomedical applications of MXene, including antibacterial activity, regenerative medicine, CT scan capability, drug delivery, diagnostics, MRI and biosensing capability. Furthermore, an outline of the future problems and challenges of MXene-based materials for biomedical applications was narrated. Thus, these salient features showcase the potential of MXene-based material and will be a breakthrough in biomedical applications in the near future.

Abstract
ConspectusThe widespread use of electrical plants and grids to generate, transmit, and deliver power to consumers makes electricity the most convenient form of energy to transport, control, and use. Balancing electricity demand with electricity supply requires a mechanism for energy storage, which is enabled by electrical energy storage devices such as batteries and supercapacitors. In addition to the grid-level energy storage, we have all witnessed the quick growth of a number of applications that require autonomous power, illustrated by the Internet of Things, and electrification of transport. Batteries, when developed for targeted applications with specific requirements, require new materials with improved performance enabled by rational design on the atomic level. The material tunability knobs include chemical composition, structure, morphology, and heterointerfaces, among others. Synthesis methods that could enable control of these parameters while offering versatility and being facile are highly desired.In this Account, we describe a synthesis strategy for the creation of new intercalation host oxides, hybrid materials, and compounds with oxide/carbon heterointerfaces for use as electrodes in intercalation batteries. We begin by introducing a strategy called the chemical preintercalation synthesis approach and describing processing steps that can be used to tune the material's chemical composition, structure, and morphology. We then show how the chemical preintercalation of inorganic ions can be used to improve the ion diffusion and stability of the synthesized materials. We reveal how confined interlayer water can be controlled and how the degree of hydration affects the electrochemical performance. This is followed by a demonstration of the chemical preintercalation of organic molecules leading to unprecedented expansion of the interlayer region up to ∼30 Å and initial electrochemical characterization of the obtained hybrid materials. We then present evidence that the carbonization of the interlayer organic molecules is an efficient synthetic pathway for creating oxide/carbon heterointerfaces and improving the electronic conductivity of oxides, which leads to improved stability and rate capability during electrochemical cycling. The examples discussed in this Account show that the chemical preintercalation synthesis approach opens pathways for the preparation of materials that have not been synthesized previously, such as new phases, hybrid materials, and 2D heterostructures with advanced functionalities. We demonstrate that chemical preintercalation can be used to effectively tune the chemistry of the confined interlayer region in layered phases and form tight oxide/carbon heterointerfaces enabling control of the material properties at the atomic level.

Abstract
The detection of toxins that contaminate food needs highly sensitive and selective techniques to prevent substantial monitory loss. In this regard, various nanostructured material-enabled biosensors, have recently been developed to improve the detection of food toxins among them aflatoxin is the prevalent one. The biosensor-based detection of aflatoxin is quick, cheaper, and needs less skilled personnel, therefore overcoming the shortcomings of conventional techniques such as LC/MS-MS, HPLC, and ELISA assays. 2D MXenes manifest as an efficient material for biosensing due to their desirable biocompatibility, magnificent mechanical strength, easiness of surface functionalization, and tuneable optical and electronic features. Contrary to this, aptamers as biorecognition elements (BREs) possess high selectivity, sensitivity, and ease of synthesis when compared to conventional BREs. In this review, we explored the most cutting-edge aptamer-based MXene-enabled biosensing technologies for the detection of the most poisonous mycotoxins (i.e., Aflatoxins) in food and environmental matrices. The discussion begins with the synthesis processes and surface functionalization/modification of MXenes. Computational approaches for designing aptasensors and advanced data analysis based on artificial intelligence and machine learning with special emphasis over Internet-of-Thing integrated biosensing devices has been presented. Besides, the advantages of aptasensors over conventional methods along with their limitations have been briefed. Their benefits, drawbacks, and future potential are discussed concerning their analytical performance, utility, and on-site adaptability. Additionally, next-generation MXene-enabled biosensing technologies that provide end users with simple handling and improved sensitivity and selectivity have been emphasized. Owing to massive applicability, economic/commercial potential of MXene in current and future perspective have been highlighted. Finally, the existing difficulties are scrutinized and a roadmap for developing sophisticated biosensing technologies to detect toxins in various samples in the future is projected.

Abstract
MXenes are seen as an exceptional candidate to reshape the future of energy with their viable surface chemistry, ultrathin 2D structure, and excellent electronic conductivity. The extensive research efforts bring about rapid expansion of the MXene families with enriched functionalities, which significantly boost performance of the existing energy-storage devices. In this review, the strategies that are developed to functionalize the MXene-based materials, including tailoring their microstructure by ions/molecules/polymers-initiated interaction or self-assembly, surface/interface engineering with dopants or functional groups, constructing heterostructures from MXenes with various materials, and transforming them into a series of derivatives inheriting the merits of the MXene precursors are highlighted. Their applications in emerging battery technologies are demonstrated and discussed. With delicate functionalization and structural engineering, MXene-based electrode materials exhibit improved specific capacity and rate capability, and their presence further suppresses and even eliminates dendrite formation on the metal anodes, which lengthens the lifespan of the rechargeable batteries. Meanwhile, MXenes serve as additives for electrolytes, separators, and current collectors. Finally, some future directions worth of exploration to address the remaining challenging issues of MXene-based materials and achieve the next-generation high-power and low-cost rechargeable batteries are proposed.

Abstract
The design and development of advanced energy storage devices with good energy/power densities and remarkable cycle life has long been a research hotspot. Metal-ion hybrid capacitors (MHCs) are considered as emerging and highly prospective candidates deriving from the integrated merits of metal-ion batteries with high energy density and supercapacitors with excellent power output and cycling stability. The realization of high-performance MHCs needs to conquer the inevitable imbalance in reaction kinetics between anode and cathode with different energy storage mechanisms. Featured by large specific surface area, short ion diffusion distance, ameliorated in-plane charge transport kinetics, and tunable surface and/or interlayer structures, 2D nanomaterials provide a promising platform for manufacturing battery-type electrodes with improved rate capability and capacitor-type electrodes with high capacity. In this article, the fundamental science of 2D nanomaterials and MHCs is first presented in detail, and then the performance optimization strategies from electrodes and electrolytes of MHCs are summarized. Next, the most recent progress in the application of 2D nanomaterials in monovalent and multivalent MHCs is dealt with. Furthermore, the energy storage mechanism of 2D electrode materials is deeply explored by advanced characterization techniques. Finally, the opportunities and challenges of 2D nanomaterials-based MHCs are prospected.

Abstract
Delayed diagnosis of cancer using conventional diagnostic modalities needs to be addressed to reduce the mortality rate of cancer. Recently, 2D nanomaterial-enabled advanced biosensors have shown potential towards the early diagnosis of cancer. The high surface area, surface functional groups availability, and excellent electrical conductivity of MXene make it the 2D material of choice for the fabrication of advanced electrochemical biosensors for disease diagnostics. MXene-enabled electrochemical aptasensors have shown great promise for the detection of cancer biomarkers with a femtomolar limit of detection. Additionally, the stability, ease of synthesis, good reproducibility, and high specificity offered by MXene-enabled aptasensors hold promise to be the mainstream diagnostic approach. In this review, the design and fabrication of MXene-based electrochemical aptasensors for the detection of cancer biomarkers have been discussed. Besides, various synthetic processes and useful properties of MXenes which can be tuned and optimized easily and efficiently to fabricate sensitive biosensors have been elucidated. Further, futuristic sensing applications along with challenges will be deliberated herein.

Abstract
Ti3C2O2 MXene has been proposed as a promising electrode material for alkali-ion batteries owing to its tunable physical and chemical properties without sacrificing the excellent metallic conductivity. However, it still suffers from low specific capacity due to its limited interlayer spacing, especially for a larger ion like sodium (Na). Sulfur doping was suggested as a viable strategy to improve the electrode's storage performance. Herein, first-principles calculations and kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) simulations were carried out to study the role of S doping on Li/Na intercalation. Based on experimental findings, two different doping sites, C (SC) and O (SO), with various S concentrations were reported and therefore used as the models in this study. Computations reveal that S doping on both C and O sites improves the electronic conductivity of the MXenes as their densities of states at the Fermi level are increased. In addition, the doped MXenes reveal an expanded lattice parameter in the normal direction, which agrees with experimental observations. However, only the SO-doped MXenes display an enlarged interlayer spacing, whereas doping at the C site only increases the layer thickness. The enlarged interlayer spacing in the SO-doped MXenes improves stabilities and transport kinetics of ion intercalation as indicated by their significantly lower insertion energies and diffusion barriers when compared with those of the pristine system. The kMC simulations were carried out to account for anisotropic diffusion in the SO-doped system. The obtained macroscopic properties of diffusion coefficients and apparent activation energies of the SO-doped system clearly confirm its superior transport kinetics. The estimated diffusion coefficients of Li(Na) are improved by 4(8) orders of magnitude upon SO doping. A fundamental understanding of the role of S doping on the improved capacitive kinetics serves as a good guide for developing MXene-based electrode materials for Li- and Na-ion batteries.

Abstract
In order to increase the capacity and improve the sluggish Na+-reaction kinetics of anodes as sodium ion capacitors (SICs), a Ti2Nb2O9/CNF self-standing film electrode comprised of Ti2Nb2O9 nanosheets and carbon nanofibers has been fabricated via electrospinning HTiNbO5 nanosheets with PAN and subsequent carbonization treatment. The as-prepared Ti2Nb2O9/CNF film electrode possesses fast Na-ion intercalation kinetics and high conductivity during Na-ion storage, and it displays a high reversible capacity of 324 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1. Additionally, it also delivers a superior rate capability of 204 mA h g-1 at a high current density of 4 A g-1, as well as an excellent cycling stability of 97% retention after 2000 cycles at 1 A g-1 in a half-cell test. A prototype Ti2Nb2O9/CNF//AC SIC full device was assembled by employing the presodiated Ti2Nb2O9/CNF anode and AC cathode, and it exhibits an high energy density of 129 W h kg-1 at a power density of 75 W kg-1 and a high power density (7560 W kg-1 with 63 W h kg-1), a good cycling performance of 85% capacitance retention after 10 000 cycles at 1 A g-1, suggesting that the Ti2Nb2O9/CNF electrode with excellent performance would be a very promising candidate as the anode for high-performance SICs.

Abstract
Since their discovery in 2011, the number of 2D transition metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes) has steadily increased. Currently more than 40 MXene compositions exist. The ultimate number is far greater and in time they may develop into the largest family of 2D materials known. MXenes' unique properties, such as their metal-like electrical conductivity reaching ≈20 000 S cm-1 , render them quite useful in a large number of applications, including energy storage, optoelectronic, biomedical, communications, and environmental. The number of MXene papers and patents published has been growing quickly. The first MXene generation is synthesized using selective etching of metal layers from the MAX phases, layered transition metal carbides and carbonitrides using hydrofluoric acid. Since then, multiple synthesis approaches have been developed, including selective etching in a mixture of fluoride salts and various acids, non-aqueous etchants, halogens, and molten salts, allowing for the synthesis of new MXenes with better control over their surface chemistries. Herein, a brief historical overview of the first 10 years of MXene research and a perspective on their synthesis and future development are provided. The fact that their production is readily scalable in aqueous environments, with high yields bodes well for their commercialization.

Abstract
Nowadays sodium-based energy storage systems (Na-based ESSs) have been widely researched as it possesses the possibility to replace traditional energy storage media to become next generation energy storage system. However, due to the irreversible loss of sodium ions in the first cycle, development of Na-based ESSs is limited. Presodiation, as a strategy of adding excess sodium ions to the system in advance, accomplishes the enhancement of electrochemical performance. In this minireview, different presodiation strategies applied in sodium-based energy storage systems will be summarized in detail, their functions and corresponding mechanisms will be discussed as well. Furthermore, the current novel application of presodiation method in other aspects of Na-based ESSs will be mentioned additionally.
