Abstract
Carbon materials, as promising anode candidates for K+ storage due to their low cost, abundant sources, and high physicochemical stability, however, encounter limited specific capacity and unfavorable cycling stability that seriously hinder their practical applications. Herein, a feasible strategy to tailor and stabilize the nitrogen species in unique P/N co-doped disk-like carbon through the Sn incorporation (P/NSn -CD) is presented, which can largely enhance the specific capacity and cycling capability for K+ storage. Specifically, it delivers a high specific capacity of 439.3 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 and ultra-stable cycling capability with a capacity retention of 93.5% at 5000 mA g-1 over 5000 cycles for K+ storage. The underlying mechanism for the superior K+ storage performance is investigated by systematical experimental data combined with theoretical simulation results, which can be derived from the increased edge-nitrogen species, improved content and stability of P/N heteroatoms, and enhanced ionic/electronic kinetics. After coupling P/NSn -CD anode with activated carbon cathode, the KIHCs can deliver a high energy density of 171.7 Wh kg-1 at 106.8 W kg-1 , a superior power density (14027.0 W kg-1 with 31.2 Wh kg-1 retained), and ultra-stable lifespan (89.7% retention after 30 K cycles with cycled at 2 A g-1 ).

Abstract
The ever-growing market of portable electronics and electric vehicles has spurred extensive research for advanced lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with high energy density. High-capacity alloy- and conversion-type anodes are explored to replace the conventional graphite anode. However, one common issue plaguing these anodes is the large initial capacity loss caused by the solid electrolyte interface formation and other irreversible parasitic reactions, which decrease the total energy density and prevent further market integration. Prelithiation becomes indispensable to compensate for the initial capacity loss, enhance the full cell cycling performance, and bridge the gap between laboratory studies and the practical requirements of advanced LIBs. This review summarizes the various emerging anode and cathode prelithiation techniques, the key barriers, and the corresponding strategies for manufacturing-compatible and scalable prelithiation. Furthermore, prelithiation as the primary Li+ donor enables the safe assembly of new-configured "beyond LIBs" (e.g., Li-ion/S and Li-ion/O2 batteries) and high power-density Li-ion capacitors (LICs). The related progress is also summarized. Finally, perspectives are suggested on the future trend of prelithiation techniques to propel the commercialization of advanced LIBs/LICs.

Abstract
Stretchable sodium-ion capacitors (SSICs) are promising energy storage devices for wearable electronic devices, and the development bottleneck is the realization of stretchable battery-type electrodes with desirable electrochemical properties during dynamic deformation. Herein, we find that electrostatic modification of acidified carbon nanotubes with polyamines can introduce active sites and modulate the surface pH microenvironment, thereby developing a route to realize the in situ coaxial nanometerization of sodium titanate (nCNT@NTO). The nCNT@NTO anode material has a fast Na+ transport and the high capacitive contribution, which can deliver a high specific capacity (206.5 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1) and high rate performance (maintain 51% capacity at 10 A g-1), and the ideal cycle stability (∼93% capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 5 A g-1). In addition, acrylate-rubber with high stickiness and stretchability are served as the elastic matrix both of the stretchable electrodes and quasi-solid-state electrolytes, which endows strong adhesion between electrodes and electrolytes. Thus, the accordingly assembled SSIC delivers high energy density of 8.8 mW h cm-3 (at a power density of 0.024 W cm-3), and excellent deformation stability (89% capacitance retention after 500 stretching cycles under 100% strain).

Abstract
Electrochemical sodium-ion storage technologies have become an indispensable part in the field of large-scale energy storage systems owing to the widespread and low-cost sodium resources. Molybdenum carbides with high electron conductivity are regarded as potential sodium storage anode materials, but the comprehensive sodium storage mechanism has not been studied in depth. Herein, Mo2 C nanowires (MC-NWs) in which Mo2 C nanoparticles are embedded in carbon substrate are synthesized. The sodium-ion storage mechanism is further systematically studied by in/ex situ experimental characterizations and diffusion kinetics analysis. Briefly, it is discovered that a faradaic redox reaction occurs in the surface amorphous molybdenum oxides on Mo2 C nanoparticles, while the inner Mo2 C is unreactive. Thus, the as-synthesized MC-NWs with surface pseudocapacitance display excellent rate capability (a high specific capacity of 76.5 mAh g-1 at 20 A g-1 ) and long cycling stability (a high specific capacity of 331.2 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 over 1500 cycles). The assembled original sodium ion capacitor displays remarkable power density and energy density. This work provides a comprehensive understanding of the sodium storage mechanism of Mo2 C materials, and constructing pseudocapacitive materials is an effective way to achieve sodium-ion storage devices with high power and energy density.

Abstract
With the development of transparent and wearable electronic devices, energy supply units with high transmittance and flexibility, long cycle life, and high power and energy density are urgently needed. Zinc ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs) combined with the advantages of both supercapacitors and zinc ion batteries are promising energy supply components in the abovementioned devices. In addition, the preparation of multifunctional devices has become a trend for the need of space- and resource-saving. Therefore, obtaining ZIHCs with high transmittance and exploring their potential applications are meaningful challenges. Herein, a transparent and flexible ZIHC composed of a patterned zinc foil anode, transparent MXene cathode, and ZnSO4-polyacrylamide (PAM) hydrogel electrolyte is designed and realized. The ZIHC exhibits a superior capacitance of 318 μF cm-2 (5 mV s-1) with 94% transmittance and retains 76% of the initial capacitance after 10,000 charge-discharge cycles. It also shows excellent flexibility, i.e., its capacitance has no obvious attenuation under different bending states. Interestingly, the leakage current of the ZIHC is highly sensitive to electric fields, which shows potential application in electric field detection. This work presents a method to realize the multifunctional ZIHC with electric field sensing function for transparent and flexible wearable devices in the future.

Abstract
Layered metal vanadates with intercalation pseudocapacitive behaviors show great promise for applications in sodium-ion hybrid capacitor anode materials due to their large interlayer distances, which benefit the fast Na+ solid-state diffusion. However, their charge storage capacity is significantly constrained by the limited available sites that allow the intercalation of Na+ ions. In this work, by engineering the interlayer cations, Ni0.12Zn0.2V2O5·1.07H2O is designed as a high-performance anode material in sodium-ion hybrid capacitors. The Ni/Zn codoping in the layered vanadate leads to the integration of high rate capability and high specific capacity. Specifically, the spacious interlayer spacing and the pillaring effects of Zn ions together lead to the high rate performance and decent cycling stability, while the redox reactions of the interlayer Ni ions efficiently upgrade the charge storage capacity of this layered material. Accordingly, this work offers a promising avenue to further optimizing the Na+ storage performance of layered vanadates via interlayer-cation engineering.

Abstract
Benefitting from the abundance and inexpensive nature of potassium resources, potassium-ion energy storage technology is considered a potential alternative to current lithium-ion systems. Potassium-ion capacitors (PICs) as a burgeoning K-ion electrochemical energy storage device, are capable of delivering high energy at high power without sacrificing lifespan. However, owing to the sluggish kinetics and significant volume change induced by the large K+-diameter, matched electrode materials with good ion accessibility and fast K+ intercalation/deintercalation capability are urgently desired. In this work, pine needles and graphene oxide (GO) are utilized as precursors to fabricate oxygen-doped activated carbon/graphene (OAC/G) porous nanosheet composites. The introduction of GO not only induces the generation of interconnected nanosheet network, but also increases the oxygen-doping content of the composite, thus expanding the graphite interlayer spacing. Experimental analysis combined with first-principle calculations reveal the transport/storage mechanism of K+ in the OAC/G composite anode, demonstrating that the high surface area, sufficient reactive sites, enlarged interlayer distance and open channels in the porous nanosheet network contribute to rapid and effective K+ diffusion and storage. When incorporated with pine needle-activated carbon as cathode, the assembled dual-carbon PICs can function at a high voltage of 5 V, exhibiting a high energy density of 156.7 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 500 W kg-1 along with a satisfied cycle life, which highlights their potential application in economic and advanced PICs.

Abstract
With a decade of effort, significant progress has been achieved in the synthesis, processing, and applications of MXenes. Metal ions play many crucial roles, such as in MXene delamination, structure regulation, surface modification, MXene composite construction, and even some unique applications. The different roles of metal ions are attributed to their many interactions with MXenes and the unique nature of MXenes, including their layered structure, surface chemistry, and the existence of multi-valent transition metals. Interactions with metal ions are crucial for the energy storage of MXene electrodes, especially in metal ion batteries and supercapacitors with neutral electrolytes. This review aims to provide a good understanding of the interactions between metal ions and MXenes, including the classification and fundamental chemistry of their interactions, in order to achieve their more effective utilization and rational design. It also provides new perspectives on MXene evolution and exfoliation, which may suggest optimized synthesis strategies. In this respect, the different effects of metal ions on MXene synthesis and processing are clarified, and the corresponding mechanisms are elaborated. Research progress on the roles metal ions have in MXene applications is also introduced.

Abstract
Potassium-ion hybrid capacitors (PIHCs) have been considered as an emerging device to render grid-scale energy storage. Nevertheless, the sluggish kinetics at the anode side and limited capacity output at the cathode side remain daunting challenges for the overall performances of PIHCs. Herein, an exquisite "homologous strategy" to devise multi-dimensional N-doped carbon nanopolyhedron@nanosheet anode and activated N-doped hierarchical carbon cathode targeting high-performance PIHCs is reported. The anode material harnessing a dual-carbon structure and the cathode candidate affording a high specific surface area (2651 m2 g-1 ) act in concert with a concentrated ether-based electrolyte, resulting in an excellent half cell performance. The related storage mechanism is systematically revealed by in situ electrokinetic characterizations. More encouragingly, the thus-derived PIHC full cell demonstrates a favorable energy output (157 Wh kg-1 ), showing distinct advantages over the state-of-the-art PIHC counterparts.

Abstract
Recently, Li-ion capacitors (LICs) have drawn tremendous attention due to their high energy/power density along with long cycle life. Nevertheless, the slow kinetics and stability of the involved anodes as bottleneck barriers always result in the modest properties of devices. The exploration of advanced anodes with both high ionic and electronic conductivities as well as structural stability thus becomes more significant for practical applications of LICs. Herein, a single-crystal nano-subunits assembled hierarchical accordion-shape WNb2 O8 micro-/nano framework is first designed via a one-step scalable strategy with the multi-layered Nb2 CTx as a precursor. The underlying solid solution Li-storage mechanism of the WNb2 O8 just with a volumetric expansion of ≈1.5% is proposed with in situ analysis. Benefiting from congenitally crystallographic merits, single-crystalline characteristic, and open accordion-like architecture, the resultant WNb2 O8 as a robust anode platform is endowed with fast electron/ion transport capability and multi-electron redox contributions from W/Nb, and accordingly, delivers a reversible capacity of ≈135.5 mAh g-1 at a high rate of 2.0 A g-1 . The WNb2 O8 assembled LICs exhibit an energy density of ≈33.0 Wh kg-1 at 9 kW kg-1 , coupled with remarkable electrochemical stability. The work provides meaningful insights into the rational design and construction of advanced bimetallic niobium oxides for next-generation LICs.

Abstract
The rapidly growing Internet of Things (IoT) has brought about great demand for high-performance sensors as well as power supply devices for those sensors. In this respect, the integration of sensors and energy storage devices, or the development of multifunctional devices having both energy storage and sensing properties, is of great interest in the development of compact sensing systems. As a proof of concept, a zinc-ion hybrid supercapacitor (ZHS) based on a double-crosslinked hydrogel electrolyte is developed in this work, which can be employed not only as an energy storage device, but also as a self-powered sensor for human movement and breathing detection. The ZHS delivers a capacitance of 779 F g−1 and an energy density of 0.32 mWh cm−2 at a power density of 0.34 mW cm−2, as well as sensitive resistance response to strain. Our work provides a useful basis for future designs of self-powered sensing devices and function-integrated systems.

Abstract
The drawbacks of common anodes in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs), such as the high voltage plateau of Li4Ti5O12 (1.55 V vs. Li/Li+) and the moderate capacity of graphite (372 mAh-g-1), have established a need for better materials. Conversion materials, and in particular iron oxide and CaFe2O4 (CFO), have amassed recent attention as potential anode replacements. In this study, we evaluate the material and electrochemical effects of the solution combustion synthesis (SCS) of porous CFO across novel fuel-to-oxidizer ratios and calcination temperatures. We demonstrate that nearly doubling the amount of fuel used during synthesis increases capacities between 120 and 150% at high current densities (~ 1000 mA-g-1) and across 500 additional charging-discharging cycles, an effect brought on in part by enhanced compositional purity in these samples. However, in order to ensure long-term cyclic stability, it is necessary to also calcine porous CFO to 900 °C to enhance crystallite size, particle size and spacing, and compositional purity.

Abstract
3D-printed micro-supercapacitors (MSCs) have emerged as the ideal candidates for energy storage devices owing to their unique characteristics of miniaturization, structural diversity, and integration. Exploring the 3D printing technology for various materials and architectures of MSCs is key to realizing customization and optimizing the performance of 3D-printed MSCs. In this review, we summarize the latest progress in 3D-printed MSCs with regards to general printing approaches, printable materials, and rational design considerations. Specifically, several general types of 3D printing techniques (their working principles, available materials, resolutions, advantages, and disadvantages) and their applications to fabricate electrodes with different energy storage mechanisms, and various electrolytes, are summarized. We further discuss research directions in terms of integrated systems with other electronics. Finally, future perspectives on the research and development directions in this important field are further discussed.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) show practical applications in large-scale energy storage systems. But, their power density is limited by the sluggish Na+ diffusion into the cathode and anode materials. Herein, the authors demonstrate a prototype of ultrahigh power SIB, consisting of the high-rate Na3 V2 (PO4 )3 (NVP) cathode, graphite-type mesocarbon microbeads (MCMB) anode, and Na+ -diglyme electrolyte. It is found that the overpotential of the NVP cathode obeys the Ohmic rule. Thus, the as-synthesized NVP@C@carbon nanotubes (CNTs) cathode with the high conductive CNTs networks displays high electronic conductivity, reducing the overpotential and charge transfer resistances and leading to the remarkable rate capability over 1000C. For the MCMB anode, the initial [Na-diglyme]+ co-intercalation step is pseudocapacitive dominated, and then the expanded graphite's layers ensure the subsequent fast ions diffusion. The rapid (de)intercalation kinetics in between the cathode and anode are well-matched. Thus, the assembled MCMB|1 m NaPF6 in diglyme|NVP@C@CNTs full-cell SIB delivers the energy density of 88 Wh kg-1 at the high power density of ≈10 kW kg-1 . Even at the ultrahigh power density of 23 kW kg-1 , an energy density of 58 Wh kg-1 is obtained. The encouraging results of the full cell will promote the development of high-power SIB for large-scale applications in the future.

Abstract
Interfacial bonding strategy has been successfully applied to address the high overpotential issue of sacrificial additives, which reduced the decompositon potential of Na2C2O4 from 4.50 to 3.95 V. Ultra-low-dose technique assisted commercial sodium ion capacitor (AC//HC) could deliver a remarkable energy density of 118.2 Wh kg-1 as well as excellent cycle stability. In-depth decomposition mechanism of sacrificial compound and the relative influence after pre-metallation were revealed by advanced in situ and ex situ characterization approaches. Sacrificial pre-metallation strategy could compensate for the irreversible consumption of metal ions and reduce the potential of anode, thereby elevating the cycle performance as well as open-circuit voltage for full metal ion capacitors (MICs). However, suffered from massive-dosage abuse, exorbitant decomposition potential, and side effects of decomposition residue, the wide application of sacrificial approach was restricted. Herein, assisted with density functional theory calculations, strongly coupled interface (M-O-C, M = Li/Na/K) and electron donating group have been put forward to regulate the band gap and highest occupied molecular orbital level of metal oxalate (M2C2O4), reducing polarization phenomenon and Gibbs free energy required for decomposition, which eventually decrease the practical decomposition potential from 4.50 to 3.95 V. Remarkably, full sodium ion capacitors constituted of commercial materials (activated carbon//hard carbon) could deliver a prominent energy density of 118.2 Wh kg-1 as well as excellent cycle stability under an ultra-low dosage pre-sodiation reagent of 15-30 wt% (far less than currently 100 wt%). Noteworthily, decomposition mechanism of sacrificial compound and the relative influence on the system of MICs after pre-metallation were initially revealed by in situ differential electrochemical mass spectrometry, offering in-depth insights for comprehending the function of cathode additives. In addition, this breakthrough has been successfully utilized in high performance lithium/potassium ion capacitors with Li2C2O4/K2C2O4 as pre-metallation reagent, which will convincingly promote the commercialization of MICs.

Abstract
The Li-ion hybrid capacitor (LIHC) is considered as a promising candidate for electrochemical energy storage owing to the high energy and power density. However, the sluggish anodic reaction kinetics and high reaction voltage greatly hinder the overall performance of LIHCs. Herein, a free-standing VN/MXene composite anode with high specific capacity and low reaction voltage was prepared by a simple vacuum filtration method. The obtained VN/MXene composite anode shows a high discharge specific capacity of 501.7 mA h g−1 at 0.1 A g−1 and excellent rate capability (191.8 mA h g−1 at 5 A g−1), as well as much extended cycling stability (1500 cycles at 2 A g−1). When combined with an egg white-derived activated carbon (E-AC) cathode, the assembled LIHC delivers a high specific capacity of 59.1 F g−1 and a high energy density of 129.3 W h kg−1 with a power density of 449.7 W kg−1. Even at a high current density of 5 A g−1, the LIHC still maintains an exciting energy density of 42.81 W h kg−1 at 11 249 W kg−1. Meanwhile, the cycling life can be extended to 5000 cycles with a high capacity retention of 98% at 1 A g−1. We believe that this work opens up new possibilities for developing advanced free-standing MXene-based electrodes for Li-ion storage. The Li-ion hybrid capacitor (LIHC) is considered as a promising candidate for electrochemical energy storage owing to the high energy and power density.![]()

Abstract
The low oxidation potential of a pre-sodiation cathode additive intrinsically prevents decomposition of the electrolyte. Although the introduction of electron-donating substitution reduces the oxidation potential, the additional molecular weight restricts the output capacity. Herein, as theroretically predicted, the electrochemical oxidation potential of sodium carboxylate is manipulated by the electronic effect and regiochemistry of the functionality, in which the stronger electron-donating substituent, p-π conjugation, and optimized regiochemistry can dramatically lead to the lower potential originated from the elevation of the highest occupied molecular orbital level. Thus, benefiting from the para-NH2 unit accompanied by a conjugated aromatic architecture, molecularly engineered sodium para-aminobenzoate (PABZ-Na) presents a reduced oxidation plateau of 3.45 V. Triggered by the positive compensation merit, sodium-based electrochemical storage systems manifest excellent electrochemical performances. This breakthrough sheds light into the correlation between the electronic effect of the functional group and the oxidation potential of the organic additive, affording in-depth insights into the fundamental guidance of pre-sodiation chemistry.

Abstract
MXenes have gained rapidly increasing attention owing to their two-dimensional (2D) layered structures and unique mechanical and physicochemical properties. However, MXenes have some intrinsic limitations (e.g., the restacking tendency of the 2D structure) that hinder their practical applications. Transition metal chalcogenide (TMC) materials such as SnS, NiS, MoS2, FeS2, and NiSe2 have attracted much interest for energy storage and conversion by virture of their earth-abundance, low costs, moderate overpotentials, and unique layered structures. Nonetheless, the intrinsic poor electronic conductivity and huge volume change of TMC materials during the alkali metal-ion intercalation/deintercalation process cause fast capacity fading and poor-rate and poor-cycling performances. Constructing heterostructures based on metallic conductive MXenes and highly electrochemically active TMCs is a promising and effective strategy to solve these problems and enhance the electrochemical performances. This review highlights and discusses the recent research development of MXenes and hierarchical MXene/TMC heterostructures, with a focus on the synthesis strategies, surface/heterointerface engineering, and potential applications for lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries, supercapacitors, electrocatalysis, and photocatalysis. The critical challenges and perspectives of the future development of MXenes and hierarchical MXene/TMC heterostructures for electrochemical energy storage and conversion are forecasted.

Abstract
Carbon nanomaterials have elicited much research interest in the energy storage field, but most of them cannot be used at high temperatures. Thus, a supercapacitor with high energy and desired stability at high temperatures is urgently required. Herein, BCN nanotubes (BCNNTs) with excellent performance at high temperatures are generated on carbon fibers by optimizing the ratio of B and N. The nanotubes' morphology can effectively alleviate the structural damage caused by the rapid adsorption/desorption of the electrolyte during long-time charge/discharge cycles at high temperatures, thus improving the high-temperature cycle stability. The symmetric supercapacitors that are assembled with the binder-free BCNNT electrode in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (EMIM·BF4 ) exhibited a high areal capacitance of 177.1 mF cm-2 at a current density of 5 mA cm-2 , and capacitance retention is maintained up to 86.1% for 5000 cycles at 100 °C. Moreover, the flexible supercapacitor based on BCNNTs in poly(vinylidenefluoride hexafluoropropylene)/EMIM·BF4 /succinonitrile gel electrolyte also exhibits good volumetric capacitance (1.98 mWh cm-3 at a current density of 5 mA cm-2 ) and cycling stability (92.6% retention after 200 charge/discharge cycles) at a temperature of 100 °C. This work shows that binder-free BCNNTs are promising materials for high-temperature flexible energy storage devices.

Abstract
Understanding and broad screening Li interaction energetics with surfaces are key to the development of materials for a wide range of applications including Li-based electrochemical capacitors, Li sensors, Li separation membranes, and Li-ion batteries. In this work, we build a high-throughput screening scheme to screen Li adsorption energetics on 2D metallic materials. First, density functional theory and graph convolution networks are utilized to calculate the minimum Li adsorption energies for some 2D metallic materials. The data is then used to find a dependence of the minimum Li adsorption energies on the sum of ionization potential, work function of the 2D metal, and coupling energy between Li+ and substrate, and the dependence is used to screen all 2D metallic materials. Physics-simplified learning by splitting the property into different contributions and learning or calculating each component is shown to have higher accuracy and transferability for machine learning of complex materials properties.

Abstract
This work presents for the first time a new diglyme-based gel polymer (DOBn-GPE) suitable for Na-based energy storage devices. The DOBn-GPE, which contains a methacrylate-based polymer, exhibited an excellent high ionic conductivity (2.3 mS cm-1 at 20 °C), broad electrochemical stability (>5.0 V), and high mechanical stability. DOBn-GPE could be successfully used for the realization of Na-ion capacitors, sodium-metal batteries, and sodium-ion batteries, displaying performance comparable with those of systems containing liquid electrolytes at room temperature and at 60 °C. The results of these investigation indicated that the development of diglyme-based gel polymer electrolytes represents a promising strategy for the realization of advanced Na-based energy storage devices.

Abstract
NiS1.23 Se0.77 nanosheets closely attached to the internal surface of hollow mesoporous carbon sphere (HMCS) to form a NiS1.23 Se0.77 nanosheets embedded in HMCS (NSSNs@HMCS) composite as the anode of sodium ion batteries (SIBs) is reported by a facile synthesis route. The anode exhibits a superior reversible capacity (520 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 ), impressive coulombic efficiency (CE) of up to 95.3%, a high rate capacity (353 mAh g-1 at 5.0 A g-1 ), excellent capacity retention at high current density (95.6%), and high initial coulombic efficiency (ICE) (95.1%). Firstly, the highest ICE for NiS2 /NiSe2 -based anode can be ascribed to ultrathin layered structure of NiS1.23 Se0.77 nanosheet and highly efficient electron transfer between the active material and HMCS. Secondly, the optimized NiS2 /NiSe2 heterostructure at the nanoscale of the inside HMCS is formed after the first discharge/charge cycles, which can provide rich heterojunction interfaces/boundaries of sulfide/selenides to offer faster Na+ pathways, decrease the Na+ diffusion barriers, increase electronic conductivity, and limit the dissolution of polysulfides or polyselenides in the electrolyte. Finally, the hollow structure of the HMCS accommodates the volume expansion, prevents the pulverization and aggregation issues of composite materials, which can also promote outstanding electrochemical performance.

Abstract
Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are attracting increasing attention because of their potential to bridge the electrochemical performance gap between batteries and supercapacitors. However, the commercial application of current LICs is still impeded by their inferior energy density, which is mainly due to the low capacity of the cathode. Therefore, tremendous efforts have been made in developing novel cathode materials with high capacity and excellent rate capability. Graphene-based nanomaterials have been recognized as one of the most promising cathodes for LICs due to their unique properties, and exciting progress has been achieved. Herein, in this review, the recent advances of graphene-based cathode materials for LICs are systematically summarized. Especially, the synthesis method, structure characterization and electrochemical performance of various graphene-based cathodes are comprehensively discussed and compared. Furthermore, their merits and limitations are also emphasized. Finally, a summary and outlook are presented to highlight some challenges of graphene-based cathode materials in the future applications of LICs.

Abstract
Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are considered to be one of the most promising energy storage devices which have the potential of integrating high energy of lithium-ion batteries and high power and long cycling life of supercapacitors into one system. However, the current LICs could only provide high power density at the cost of low energy density due to the sluggish Li+ diffusion and/or low electrical conductivity of the anode materials. Moreover, the serious capacity and kinetics imbalances between anode and cathode result in not only inferior rate performance but also unsatisfactory cycling stability. Therefore, designing high-power and structure stable anode materials is of great significance for practical LICs. Under this circumstance, graphene-based materials have been intensively explored as anodes in LICs due to their unique structure and outstanding electrochemical properties and attractive achievements have been made. In this review, the recent progresses of graphene-based anode materials for LICs are systematically summarized. Their synthesis procedure, structure and electrochemical performance are discussed with a special focus on the role of graphene. Finally, the outlook and remaining challenges are presented with some constructive guidelines for future research.

Abstract
Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) have been proposed as an emerging technological innovation that integrates the advantages of lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors. However, the high-power output of LICs still suffers from intractable challenges due to the sluggish reaction kinetics of battery-type anodes. Herein, polypyrrole-coated nitrogen and phosphorus co-doped hollow carbon nanospheres (NPHCS@PPy) were synthesized by a facile method and employed as anode materials for LICs. The unique hybrid architecture composed of porous hollow carbon nanospheres and PPy coating layer can expedite the mass/charge transport and enhance the structural stability during repetitive lithiation/delithiation process. The N and P dual doping plays a significant role on expanding the carbon layer spacing, enhancing electrode wettability, and increasing active sites for pseudocapacitive reactions. Benefiting from these merits, the NPHCS@PPy composite exhibits excellent lithium-storage performances including high rate capability and good cycling stability. Furthermore, a novel LIC device based on the NPHCS@PPy anode and the nitrogen-doped porous carbon cathode delivers a high energy density of 149 Wh kg−1 and a high power density of 22,500 W kg−1 as well as decent cycling stability with a capacity retention rate of 92% after 7,500 cycles. This work offers an applicable and alternative way for the development of high-performance LICs.

Abstract
Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) have been considered as an advanced energy storage system owing to their high energy and power densities. However, their application in a wide temperature range is still a great challenge due to the reduced ionic conductivity of the electrolyte and the poor electric conductivity of the battery-type transition metal oxide electrodes. Herein, an all-climate LIC is well-fabricated with TiNb2O7@expanded graphite as the anode and activated carbon as the cathode in an optimized electrolyte, which can be operated within a wide temperature range from -60 to +55 °C. Benefitting from the synergetic effect of the improved electrode and electrolyte, the LIC exhibits an outstanding energy density of 119 W h kg-1 and a power density of 5110 W kg-1 based on the total mass of both negative and positive electrodes. Moreover, it can deliver a capacity retention of as high as 42% at -60 °C and function at a superior rate capability at a high temperature of +55 °C, which exhibits an all-climate feature and the potential for wide applications under some extreme conditions.

Abstract
Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs), which combine the characteristics of lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors, have been well studied recently. Extensive efforts are devoted to developing fast Li+ insertion/deintercalation anode materials to overcome the discrepancy in kinetics between battery-type anodes and capacitive cathodes. Herein, we design a FeNb2O6/reduced graphene oxide (FNO/rGO) hybrid material as a fast-charge anode that provides a solution to the aforementioned issue. The synergetic combination of FeNb2O6, whose unique structure promotes fast electron transport, and highly conductive graphene shortens the Li+ diffusion pathways and enhances structural stability, leading to excellent electrochemical performance of the FNO/rGO anode, including a high capacity (770 mA h g−1 at 0.05 A g−1) and long cycle stability (95.3% capacitance retention after 500 cycles). Furthermore, the FNO/rGO//ACs LIC achieves an ultrahigh energy density of 135.6 W h kg−1 (at 2000 W kg−1) with a wide working potential window from 0.01 to 4 V and remarkable cycling performance (88.5% capacity retention after 5000 cycles at 2 A g−1). FeNb2O6/reduced graphene oxide (FNO/rGO) hybrid material as a fast charge anode for LICs that provides a solution to overcome the discrepancy in kinetics between battery-type anodes and capacitive cathodes.![]()

Abstract
Hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs) with the characteristics of high energy density, long cycle life and without altering their power density need to be developed urgently. Herein, a novel dual-ion hybrid supercapacitors (DHSCs) with Ni(OH)2 nanotube arrays (NTAs) as positive electrode and V2O5 directly grown on freestanding carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as negative electrode is assembled. In charging mechanism of DHSCs, K+ are inserted into the V2O5 negative while OH- react with Ni(OH)2 positive; during discharge, the K+ and OH- are released from V2O5 negative and Ni(OH)2 positive, respectively, and return back to the electrolyte, which is quite different from traditional metal ion or alkaline supercapacitors. Because of the merits combining dual-ion mechanism and HSCs, the DHSC displays excellent capacity retention of ∼ 81.4% after 10,000 cycles, high energy density of ∼ 25.4 μWh cm-2 and high power density of ∼ 4.66 mW cm-2, indicating the potential applications in the further on flexible wearable electronics.

Abstract
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have emerged as a key technology to meet the demand for electric vehicles, energy storage systems, and portable electronics. In LIBs, a permeable porous membrane (separator) is an essential component located between positive and negative electrodes to prevent physical contact between the two electrodes and transfer lithium ions. Among several types, microporous polyolefin membranes have dominated the commercial separator market for LIBs operated with liquid electrolytes, favored for their chemical and electrochemical stability, high mechanical strength, uniform pore size, and inexpensive manufacturing and materials cost. In this review, we summarize the principles and theoretical background underlying conventional manufacturing processes and newly emerging microporous polyolefin separators. Based on their mechanical and physical properties, as collected from the literature, we introduce a number of processing type-dependent characteristics and universal correlations among their properties. This will provide a macroscopic view on the subject and a guideline for the development of next-generation separators.

Abstract
With the battery-type anode and capacitor-type cathode, lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are expected to exhibit both high energy and high power density but suffer from the mismatch of the electrode reaction kinetics and capacity. Herein, to alleviate the mismatch between the two electrodes and synergistically enhance the energy/power density, we design a method of microwave irradiation reduction to prepare graphene-based electrode material (MRPG/CNT) with fast ion/electron pathway. The three-dimensional structure of CNT intercalation to graphene inhibits the restacking of graphene sheets and improves the conductivity of the electrode material, resulting a rapid ion and electron diffusion channel. Due to its specific properties, MRPG/CNT materials can be used as both anode and cathode electrodes of LICs at the same time. As anode, MRPG/CNT shows a high capacity of 1200 mAh g-1 as well as high rate performance. As cathode, MRPG/CNT displays a high capacity of 108 mAh g-1 and the capacity retention of 100% after 8000 cycles. Coupling the prelithiated MRPG/CNT anode with MRPG/CNT cathode gives a full-graphene-based symmetric LIC, which achieves a high energy density of 232.6 Wh kg-1 at 226.0 W kg-1, 111.2 Wh kg-1 at the ultrahigh power density of 45.2 kW kg-1, and superior capacity retention of 86% after 5000 cycles. The structure design of this electrode provides a new strategy for alleviating the mismatch of LIC electrodes and constructing high-performance symmetrical LICs.

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. At last, in the view of present research status of presodiation, issues that can be mitigated are put forward and guidelines are given on how to deliberate in-depth presodiation technology in the future, dedicating to promote the further development of Na-based ESSs.

Abstract
The sluggish layered structural sodium reaction kinetics and the easy restacking property are major obstacles hindering the practical application of MoS2-based electrodes for sodium storage. Herein, covalently assembled two-phase MoS2-SnS supported by a hierarchical graphitic carbon nitride/graphene (MoS2-SnS@g-C3N4/G) composite is constructed to improve cycling cyclability and rate performances for Na storage. The multiphase MoS2-SnS@g-C3N4/G is featured with a covalent assembly strategy and an interconnected network architecture. This unique structural design can not only enhance the conductivity and facilitate fast interfacial electron transport, which is confirmed by experiments and density functional theory, but also buffer the volumetric changes of MoS2-SnS. As a result, the as-obtained MoS2-SnS@g-C3N4/G anode delivers a high reversible capacity of 834 mA h g-1 at 0.1 A g-1, a high rate capability of 452 mA h g-1 at 5 A g-1, and a long-term cycling stability (320 mA h g-1 at 2 A g-1 with 54.7% retention after 500 cycles) for the Na half-cell. Coupling with activated carbon (AC), our MoS2-SnS@g-C3N4/G||AC sodium-ion hybrid capacitor delivers high energy/power densities (193.1 W h kg-1/90 W kg-1 and 41.5 W h kg-1/18,000 W kg-1) and a stable cycle life in the potential range of 0-4.0 V.

Abstract
The use of a sacrificial cathode additive as a pre-metallation method could ensure adequate metal sources for advanced energy storage devices. However, this pre-metallation technique suffers from the precise regulation of decomposition potential of additive. Herein, a molecularly compensated pre-metallation (Li/Na/K) strategy has been achieved through Kolbe electrolysis, in which the electrochemical oxidation potential of a metal carboxylate is manipulated by the bonding energy of the oxygen-metal (O-M) moiety. The electron-donating effect of the substituent and the low charge density of the cation can dramatically weaken the O-M bond strength, further bringing out the reduced potential. Thus, sodium acetate exhibits a superior pre-sodiation feature for sodium-ion battery accompanied with a large irreversible specific capacity of 301.8 mAh g-1 , remarkably delivering 70.6 % enhanced capacity retention in comparison to the additive-free system after 100 cycles. This methodology has been extended to construct a high-performance lithium-ion battery and a lithium/sodium/potassium-ion capacitor.
