Abstract
The high-throughput scalable production of low-cost and high-performance electrode materials that work well under high power densities required in industrial application is full of challenges for the large-scale implementation of electrochemical technologies. Here, motivated by theoretical calculation that Mo-S-C heterojunction and sulfur vacancies can reduce the energy band gap, decrease the migration energy barrier, and improve the mechanical stability of MoS2 , the scalable preparation of inexpensive MoS2-x @CN is contrived by employing natural molybdenite as precursor, which is characteristic of high efficiency in synthesis process and energy conservation and the calculated costs are four orders of magnitude lower than MoS2 /C in previous work. More importantly, MoS2- x @CN electrode is endowed with impressive rate capability even at 5 A g-1 , and ultrastable cycling stability during almost 5000 cycles, which far outperform chemosynthesis MoS2 materials. Obtaining the full SIC cell assembled by MoS2- x @CN anode and carbon cathode, the energy/power output is high up to 265.3 W h kg-1 at 250 W kg-1 . These advantages indicate the huge potentials of the designed MoS2- x @CN and of mineral-based cost-effective and abundant resources as anode materials in high-performance AICs.

Tao S, Momen R, Luo Z, Zhu Y, Xiao X, Cao Z, Xiong D, Deng W, Liu Y, Hou H, Zou G, Ji X. Trapping Lithium Selenides with Evolving Heterogeneous Interfaces for High-Power Lithium-Ion Capacitors. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023; 19:e2207975.

Abstract
Transition metal selenides anodes with fast reaction kinetics and high theoretical specific capacity are expected to solve mismatched kinetics between cathode and anode in Li-ion capacitors. However, transition metal selenides face great challenges in the dissolution and shuttle problem of lithium selenides, which is the same as Li-Se batteries. Herein, inspired by the density functional theory calculations, heterogeneous can enhance the adsorption of Li2 Se relative to single component selenide electrodes, thus inhibiting the dissolution and shuttle effect of Li2 Se. A heterostructure material (denoted as CoSe2 /SnSe) with the ability to evolve continuously (CoSe2 /SnSe→Co/Sn→Co/Li13 Sn5 ) is successfully designed by employing CoSnO3 -MOF as a precursor. Impressively, CoSe2 /SnSe heterostructure material delivers the ultrahigh reversible specific capacity of 510 mAh g-1 after 1000 cycles at the high current density of 4 A g-1 . In situ XRD reveals the continuous evolution of the interface based on the transformation and alloying reactions during the charging and discharging process. Visualizations of in situ disassembly experiments demonstrate that the continuously evolving interface inhibits the shuttle of Li2 Se. This research proposes an innovative approach to inhibit the dissolution and shuttling of discharge intermediates (Li2 Se) of metal selenides, which is expected to be applied to metal sulfides or Li-Se and Li-S energy storage systems.

Abstract
High-entropy oxide (HEO) is an emerging type of anode material for lithium-ion batteries with excellent properties, where high-concentration oxygen vacancies can effectively enhance the diffusion coefficient of lithium ions. In this study, Ni-free spinel-type HEOs ((FeCoCrMnZn)3O4 and (FeCoCrMnMg)3O4) were prepared via ball milling, and the effects of zinc and magnesium on the concentration of oxygen vacancy (OV), lithium-ion diffusion coefficient (DLi+), and electrochemical performance of HEOs were investigated. Ab initio calculations show that the addition of zinc narrows down the band gap and thus improves the electrical conductivity. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results show that (FeCoCrMnZn)3O4 (42.7%) and (FeCoCrMnMg)3O4 (42.5%) have high OV concentration. During charge/discharge, the OV concentration of (FeCoCrMnZn)3O4 is higher than that of (FeCoCrMnMg)3O4. The galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) results show that the DLi+ value of (FeCoCrMnZn)3O4 is higher than that of (FeCoCrMnMg)3O4 during charge and discharge. All of that can improve its specific discharge capacity and enhance its cycle stability. (FeCoCrMnZn)3O4 achieved a discharge capacity of 828.6 mAh g-1 at 2.0 A g-1 after 2000 cycles. This work provides a deep understanding of the structure and performance of HEO.

Abstract
Silicon (Si), have been considered as promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), due to its high theoretical specific capacity of 4200 mAh g-1. However, the poor electrical conductivity and large volume change during lithiation/delithiation process, resulting in poor cycling stability, and seriously hindered the practical application in LIBs. Herein, a multiple Si/FexSiy@NC/CNTs composite is synthesized and investigated as advanced anode materials for LIBs via a simple one-step method. Such multiple Si/FexSiy@NC/CNTs composite has several merits including the FexSiy can not only accommodate the huge volume change of Si nanoparticles, but also enhance the conductivity upon discharge/charge process. Furthermore, the in-situ growth CNTs may help establish a long-range conductivity, and the Nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) layer can further improve the conductivity of Si, as well as inhibit the direct contract between electrolyte and Si during cycling process. Accordingly, the Si/FexSiy@NC/CNTs-1 exhibits excellent cycling stability (a high capacity of 994.4 mAh g-1 is maintained at 1.0 A g-1 after 600cycles) and outstanding rate capability (a suitable capacity of 441.7 mAh g-1 was obtained even at 5.0 A g-1). Moreover, the assembled full cell can achieve a capacity of 141.4 mAh g-1 after 65 cycles at 1.0C, exhibiting outstanding cycling stability. This work provides a prospective way for the commercial production of high-performance Si-based anode materials for LIBs.

Abstract
Rechargeable batteries are key in the field of electrochemical energy storage, and the development of advanced electrode materials is essential to meet the increasing demand of electrochemical energy storage devices with higher density of energy and power. Anode materials are the key components of batteries. However, the anode materials still suffer from several challenges such as low rate capability and poor cycling stability, limiting the development of high-energy and high-power batteries. In recent years, heterojunctions have received increasing attention from researchers as an emerging material, because the constructed heterostructures can significantly improve the rate capability and cycling stability of the materials. Although many research progress has been made in this field, it still lacks review articles that summarize this field in detail. Herein, this review presents the recent research progress of heterojunction-type anode materials, focusing on the application of various types of heterojunctions in lithium/sodium-ion batteries. Finally, the heterojunctions introduced in this review are summarized, and their future development is anticipated.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical pollutant in the environmental water bodies has become a major concern, which causes adverse effect to aquatic entities. This study provides an incisive insight on the photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and the development of rationally engineered g-C3N4-NiCo2O4-Zn0.3Fe2·7O4 nanocomposite for boosted photocatalytic performance under visible light irradiation. The g-C3N4-NiCo2O4-Zn0.3Fe2·7O4 nanocomposite was synthesized via ultrasonication-assisted hydrothermal method. The characterization of the as-prepared material was evaluated by XPS, SEM, HR-TEM, PL, FT-IR, EIS, ESR, XRD, BET, and UV-Vis DRS techniques. Furthermore, the effect of catalytic dosage, drug dosage, and pH changes was explored, where g-C3N4-NiCo2O4-Zn0.3Fe2·7O4-10% unveiled excellent visible light photo-Fenton degradation of 92% for CIP at 140 min. The hydroxyl radicals (OH.) served as the predominant radical species on the photodegradation of CIP, which was confirmed by performing a radical scavenging test. Furthermore, the degradation efficiency was determined by six consecutive cycle tests, where the nanomaterial exhibited excellent stability with 98.5% reusable efficiency. The degradation of CIP was further scrutinized by GC-MS analysis, where the degraded intermediate products and the possible pathway were elucidated. The degraded product toxicity was determined by ECOSAR program, where the degraded products haven't exhibited any considerable toxic effects. In addition, the genotoxicity of the nanomaterial was determined by treating them with root tips of A. cepa, where it was found to be non-toxic. Here, the prepared g-C3N4-NiCo2O4-Zn0.3Fe2·7O4 nanocomposite (CNZ NCs) shows eco-friendly and excellent photo-Fenton activity for environmental applications.

Abstract
Spinel NiCo2O4 is a promising p-type semiconductor for optoelectronic devices; however, it is difficult to prepare uniform and large-area NiCo2O4 films, which hinders its application as a hole transport material for perovskite solar cells (PSCs). In this study, a novel, mild, and low-cost KCl-assisted electrochemical deposition (ECD) approach was developed to directly prepare a uniform NiCo2O4 film on a fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate. A uniform NiCo2O4 film prepared through an ECD approach was used as a hole-transport layer (HTL) in inverted PSCs. The resulting NiCo2O4 HTL-based device achieved a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 19.24% with negligible hysteresis and excellent reproducibility. Additionally, it outperformed a NiOx-based device (PCE = 18.68%). The unsealed devices retained 90.7% of their initial efficiency when subjected to stability measurements for 360 h in an ambient atmosphere. This study shows the great potential of ECD-prepared NiCo2O4 HTLs for large-area PSCs in the future. An electrochemical deposition approach was developed to prepare a NiCo2O4 hole transport layer for inverted perovskite solar cells.![]()

Abstract
The conventional P2-type cathode material Na0.67Ni0.33Mn0.67O2 suffers from an irreversible P2-O2 phase transition and serious capacity fading during cycling. Here, we successfully carry out magnesium and calcium ion doping into the transition-metal layers (TM layers) and the alkali-metal layers (AM layers), respectively, of Na0.67Ni0.33Mn0.67O2. Both Mg and Ca doping can reduce O-type stacking in the high-voltage region, leading to enhanced cycling endurance, however, this is associated with a decrease in capacity. The results of density functional theory (DFT) studies reveal that the introduction of Mg2+ and Ca2+ make high-voltage reactions (oxygen redox and Ni4+/Ni3+ redox reactions) less accessible. Thanks to the synergetic effect of co-doping with Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions, the adverse effects on high-voltage reactions involving Ni-O bonding are limited, and the structural stability is further enhanced. The finally obtained P2-type Na0.62Ca0.025Ni0.28Mg0.05Mn0.67O2 exhibits a satisfactory initial energy density of 468.2 W h kg-1 and good capacity retention of 83% after 100 cycles at 50 mA g-1 within the voltage range of 2.2-4.35 V. This work deepens our understanding of the specific effects of Mg2+ and Ca2+ dopants and provides a stability-enhancing strategy utilizing abundant alkaline earth elements.

Abstract
Li-rich Mn-based-layered oxides are considered to be the most felicitous cathode material candidates for commercial application of lithium-ion batteries on account of high energy density. Nevertheless, defects containing an unsatisfactory initial Coulombic efficiency and rapid voltage decay seriously impede their practical utilization. Herein, a coating layer with three distinct crystalline states are employed as a coating layer to modify Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2, respectively, and the effects of coating layers with distinct crystalline states on the crystal structure, diffusion kinetics, and cell performance of host materials are further explored. A coating layer with high crystallinity enables mitigatory voltage decay and better cyclic stability of materials, while a coating layer with planar defects facilitates Li+ transfer and enhances the rate performance of materials. Consequently, optimizing the crystalline state of coating substances is critical for preferable surface modification.

Abstract
The hierarchical heterostructure of NiMoO4@NiMnCo2O4 (NMO@NMCO) with furry structures of NMCO juxtaposed with NMO nanowires are endowed with multiple electrochemically active and accessible sites for ion storage, thus delivering an ultrahigh specific capacitance of 2706 F g-1, nearly two-fold times greater than that of sole NMCO. Electrodeposition of an overlayer of a highly robust and electrically conducting polymer, poly(3,4-propylenedioxythiophene) (PProDOT), not only improves the energy storage performance but also assists the binary oxide cathode in retaining its structural integrity during redox cycling. Coupling with an anode of porous flaky carbon (FC) derived from groundnut shells results in an asymmetric supercapacitor of FC//PProDOT@NiMoO4@NiMnCo2O4, which delivers an outstanding capacitance of 552 F g-1, energy and power density ranges of 172-40 Wh kg-1 and 0.75-10 kW kg-1, respectively, and a remarkable cycle life of 50 000 cycles, with ∼97.8% capacitance retention, over an operational voltage window of 1.5 V. From an application perspective, the charged supercapacitor was connected to a complementary coloring reversible electrochromic device (ECD) of Prussian blue//PProDOT, and the ECD state transformed from a pale-blue to a deep blue hue, thus signaling the efficient utilization of energy stored in the supercapacitor. The energy-saving attribute of the ECD was realized in terms of an integrated visible-light modulation of 39% that accompanied the optical transition. Deployment of low-cost devices at homes and commercial spaces, capable of storing and saving energy, is the way forward, and this is one significant step in this direction.

Abstract
Despite predictions of high electrocatalytic OER activity by selenide-rich phases, such as NiCo2Se4 and Co3Se4, their synthesis through a wet-chemical route remains a challenge because of the high sensitivity of the various oxidation states of selenium to the reaction conditions. In this work, we have determined the contribution of individual reactants behind the maintenance of conducive solvothermal reaction conditions to produce phase-pure NiCo2Se4 and Co3Se4 from elemental selenium. The maintenance of reductive conditions throughout the reaction was found to be crucial for their synthesis, as a decrease in the reductive conditions over time was found to produce nickel/cobalt selenites as the primary product. Further, the reluctance of Ni(II) to oxidize into Ni(III) in comparison to the proneness of Co(II) to Co(III) oxidation was found to have a profound effect on the final product composition, as a deficiency of ions in the III oxidation state under nickel-rich reaction conditions hindered the formation of a monoclinic "Co3Se4-type" phase. Despite its lower intrinsic OER activity, Co3Se4 was found to show geometric performance on a par with NiCo2Se4 by virtue of its higher textural and microstructural properties.

Abstract
To attain superior energy density concurrently with high power density, high-performance supercapacitors have been developed. Herein an innovative strategy has been adopted to fabricate unique binder-free electrodes composed of a unique porous structure of binary metal carbonate hydroxide nanomace-decorated hydrothermal porous carbon spheres (PCSs). Hierarchical nickel-cobalt carbonate hydroxide (NiCOCH) nanomaces, directly grown on PCSs, are used as positive electrodes for supercapacitors fabrication. Furthermore, Fe2O3@PCS composites, having benefits of highly reversible redox reaction in the negative potential window and highly porous structure, are employed as the negative electrode in the fabrication of the asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs). The assembled NiCoCH@PCS// Fe2O3@PCS asymmetric devices with a wide electrochemical potential window not only have the merit of high energy and power densities but also receive benefits from remarkable cycle stability. These encouraging outcomes that are mutually beneficial, make these fabricated ASCs significantly ideal for high-performance electronics.

Abstract
Inorganic p-type semiconductors have broadly served as hole transport materials (HTLs) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) in recent years. Among them, NiCo2O4 with its excellent conductivity and hole mobility is the emerging candidate for HTLs and is attracting increasing attention. Here, we employ a simple hydrothermal method to fabricate high-quality mesoporous NiCo2O4 films as HTLs of PSCs. The study finds that the morphology of NiCo2O4 can be regulated from nanosheets (NSs) to nanowires (NWs) as the hydrothermal reaction time increases, and the morphology of NiCo2O4 significantly affects the device performance. Specially, the device with NWs achieves a best efficiency of 11.58%, ascribed to the fact that such a one dimension material could provide a straight path for hole extraction/transport. And benefiting from the mesoporous structures of NiCo2O4 films, all the devices exhibited a very repeatable and desirable long-term stability. Overall, this work develops alternative NiCo2O4 nanostructure-based HTLs and opens up new opportunities in fabricating PSCs.

Abstract
Binary transition metal oxides (BTMOs) have been explored as promising candidates in rechargeable lithium-ion battery (LIB) anodes due to their high specific capacity and environmental benignity. Herein, 2D ultrathin NiCo2O4 nanosheets vertically grown on a biomass-derived carbon fiber substrate (NCO NSs/BCFs) were obtained by a facile synthetic strategy. The BCF substrate has superior flexibility and mechanical strength and thus not only offers a good support to NCO NSs/BCFs composites, but also provides high-speed paths for electron transport. Furthermore, 2D NiCo2O4 nanosheets grown vertically present a large contact area between the electrode and the electrolyte, which shortens the ions/electrons transport distance. The nanosheets structure can effectively limit the volume change derived from Li+ insertion and extraction, thus improving the stability of the electrode material. Therefore, the synthesized self-supporting NCO NSs/BCFs electrode displays excellent electrochemical performance, such as a large reversible capacity of 1128 mA·h·g−1 after 80 cycles at a current density of 100 mA·g−1 and a good rate capability of 818.5 mA·h·g−1 at 1000 mA·g−1. Undoubtedly, the cheap biomass carbon source and facile synthesis strategy here described can be extended to other composite materials for high-performance energy-storage and conversion devices.

Abstract
The development of high performance supercapacitors with high energy densities without sacrificing power densities has always been at the leading edge of the emerging field of renewable energy. Herein, the design and fabrication of innovative high performance binder-free electrodes consisting of coiled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and biomass-derived hydrothermal carbon spheres (HTCSs) as, respectively, positive and negative electrodes is reported. High performance asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) were developed using novel 3D core/shell-like binary Ni-Co oxide (NCO) decorated coiled CNTs directly grown on Ni nano-cone arrays (NCAs) and HTCSs directly deposited on NCAs. Novel 3D structures of NCAs were synthesized via a facile and scalable cathodic electrodeposition route and coiled CNTs were directly grown on them by catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CVD) followed by a facile hydrothermal method to integrally decorate the coiled CNTs/NCAs by 3D flower-like NCO. A one-pot hydrothermal method is also used to direct the synthesis of biomass-derived HTCSs on NCAs to fabricate a novel binder-free negative electrode. The ASC based on NCO@coiled CNTs/NCAs//HTCSs/NCAs not only exhibits superior energy density (72.5 W h kg-1) at a reasonable power density of 1.4 kW kg-1, but also represents remarkable cycling durability (retaining almost over 85% of its initial capacitance after 5000 charge-discharge cycles). The fabricated ASC, therefore, seems to be a potent candidate for practical applications in future high performance energy storage systems.
