Abstract
Energy consumption is a growing phenomenon in our society causing many negative effects such as global warming. There is a need for the development of new sustainable materials for energy storage. Carbons are materials derivable from biowaste that can rather easily store energy due to their high conductivity and surface area. However, their large-scale processing is challenging as derived materials can be rather heterogeneous and homogenization requires ball milling, a process that can damage carbons in the process of oxidation. Herein, we have prepared caffeine-derived noble nitrogen-doped carbon that withstands the ball milling process without significant oxidation. Additionally, it performs extraordinarily as a cathode material for lithium-ion capacitors, making it an attractive biowaste-derived alternative to commercial heavy metal cathodes.

Abstract
Sodium-ion hybrid capacitors (SHCs) have attracted great attention owing to the improved power density and cycling stability in comparison with sodium-ion batteries. Nevertheless, the energy density (<100 Wh·kg-1) is usually limited by low specific capacity anodes (<150 mAh·g-1) and "kinetics mismatch" between the electrodes. Hence, we report a high energy density (153 Wh·kg-1) SHC based on a highly pseudocapacitive interface-engineered 3D-CoO-NrGO anode. This high-performance anode (445 mAh·g-1 @0.025 A·g-1, 135 mAh·g-1 @5.0 A·g-1) consists of CoO (∼6 nm) nanoparticles chemically bonded to the NrGO network through Co-O-C bonds. Exceptional pseudocapacitive charge storage (up to ∼81%) and capacity retention (∼80% after 5000 cycles) are also identified for this SHC. Excellent performance of the 3D-CoO-NrGO anode and SHC is owing to the synergistic effect of the CoO conversion reaction and pseudocapacitive sodium-ion storage induced by numerous Na2O/Co/NrGO nanointerfaces. Co-O-C bonds and the 3D microstructure facilitating efficient strain relaxation and charge-transfer correspondingly are also identified as vital factors accountable for the excellent electrochemical performance. The interface-engineering strategy demonstrated provides opportunities to design high-performance transition metal oxide-based anodes for advanced SHCs.

Abstract
The ever-increasing demand for clean sustainable energy has driven tremendous worldwide investment in the design and exploration of new active materials for energy conversion and energy-storage devices. Tailoring the surfaces of and interfaces between different materials is one of the surest and best studied paths to enable high-energy-density batteries and high-efficiency solar cells. Metal-halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are one of the most promising photovoltaic materials due to their unprecedented development, with their record power conversion efficiency (PCE) rocketing beyond 25% in less than 10 years. Such progress is achieved largely through the control of crystallinity and surface/interface defects. Rechargeable batteries (RBs) reversibly convert electrical and chemical potential energy through redox reactions at the interfaces between the electrodes and electrolyte. The (electro)chemical and optoelectronic compatibility between active components are essential design considerations to optimize power conversion and energy storage performance. A focused discussion and critical analysis on the formation and functions of the interfaces and interphases of the active materials in these devices is provided, and prospective strategies used to overcome current challenges are described. These strategies revolve around manipulating the chemical compositions, defects, stability, and passivation of the various interfaces of RBs and PSCs.

Abstract
Li-ion capacitors (LICs) are designed to achieve high power and energy densities using a carbon-based material as a positive electrode coupled with a negative electrode often adopted from Li-ion batteries. However, such adoption cannot be direct and requires additional materials optimization. Furthermore, for the desired device’s performance, a proper design of the electrodes is necessary to balance the different charge storage mechanisms. The negative electrode with an intercalation or alloying active material must provide the high rate performance and long-term cycling ability necessary for LIC functionality—a primary challenge for the design of these energy-storage devices. In addition, the search for new active materials must also consider the need for environmentally friendly chemistry and the sustainable availability of key elements. With these factors in mind, this review evaluates advanced and emerging materials used as high-rate anodes in LICs from the perspective of their practical implementation.

Abstract
In situ uniform confinement of ultrasmall Mo2C nanocrystals into micropore-enriched N-doped carbons was achieved by carbonizing phosphomolybdic acid/polyimide precursors to craft a surface-dominated capacitive battery-type anode. Upon coupling with a capacitor-type cathode, the as-fabricated lithium-ion capacitors exhibit superior power and energy outputs by improving the kinetics and capacity imbalance between two electrodes.

Abstract
A lithium-ion capacitor (LiC) is one of the most promising technologies for grid applications, which combines the energy storage mechanism of an electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC) and a lithium-ion battery (LiB). This article presents an optimal thermal management system (TMS) to extend the end of life (EoL) of LiC technology considering different active and passive cooling methods. The impact of different operating conditions and stress factors such as high temperature on the LiC capacity degradation is investigated. Later, optimal passive TMS employing a heat pipe cooling system (HPCS) is developed to control the LiC cell temperature. Finally, the effect of the proposed TMS on the lifetime extension of the LiC is explained. Moreover, this trend is compared to the active cooling system using liquid-cooled TMS (LCTMS). The results demonstrate that the LiC cell temperature can be controlled by employing a proper TMS during the cycle aging test under 150 A current rate. The cell’s top surface temperature is reduced by 11.7% using the HPCS. Moreover, by controlling the temperature of the cell at around 32.5 and 48.8 °C, the lifetime of the LiC would be extended by 51.7% and 16.5%, respectively, compared to the cycling of the LiC under natural convection (NC). In addition, the capacity degradation for the NC, HPCS, and LCTMS case studies are 90.4%, 92.5%, and 94.2%, respectively.

Abstract
Electrochemical capacitors charge and discharge more rapidly than batteries over longer cycles, but their practical applications remain limited due to their significantly lower energy densities. Pseudocapacitors and hybrid capacitors have been developed to extend Ragone plots to higher energy density values, but they are also limited by the insufficient breadth of options for electrode materials, which require materials that store alkali metal cations such as Li+ and Na+. Herein, we report a comprehensive and systematic review of emerging anion storage materials for performance- and functionality-oriented applications in electrochemical and battery-capacitor hybrid devices. The operating principles and types of dual-ion and whole-anion storage in electrochemical and hybrid capacitors are addressed along with the classification, thermodynamic and kinetic aspects, and associated interfaces of anion storage materials in various aqueous and non-aqueous electrolytes. The charge storage mechanism, structure-property correlation, and electrochemical features of anion storage materials are comprehensively discussed. The recent progress in emerging anion storage materials is also discussed, focusing on high-performance applications, such as dual-ion- and whole-anion-storing electrochemical capacitors in a symmetric or hybrid manner, and functional applications including micro- and flexible capacitors, desalination, and salinity cells. Finally, we present our perspective on the current impediments and future directions in this field.

Abstract
Metal-ion hybrid supercapacitors (MICs) are a new type of electrochemical energy storage (EES) device, consisting of a battery-type electrode and a supercapacitor (SC)-type electrode. Exhibiting the advantages of both batteries and SCs (e. g., good energy density, excellent power density and long cycle life), these advanced energy storage devices have considerable commercial application prospects. Among MICs, potassium-ion hybrid supercapacitors (PICs) have several further advantages, including abundancy of resources, low standard electrode potential, and low cost. PICs are regarded as potential substitutes for lithium- or sodium-ion hybrid supercapacitors. However, the practical applications of PICs remain limited, owing to the imbalance of kinetics and capacity between the electrodes, the slow ion/electron diffusion rate, and the poor electrode structural stability. Recently, 2D materials with distinct structures and fascinating features have elicited widespread attention for application in PICs, thus achieving significant enhancements, ranging from charge storage capacity to reaction kinetics. This Review discusses research progress in 2D materials for PICs. Firstly, the energy storage principle and development requirements of MICs are introduced. The pivotal advantages and significant roles of 2D materials in the fabrication of PICs are then discussed in detail. Lastly, the challenges and prospects of the application of 2D materials to high-performance PICs are presented.

Abstract
Abstract
Energy storage is an integral part of the modern world. One of the newest and most interesting concepts is the internal hybridization achieved in metal-ion capacitors. In this study, for the first time we used sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as a sacrificial material for the preparation of next-generation sodium-ion capacitors (NICs). NaBH4 is a material with large irreversible capacity of ca. 700 mA h g−1 at very low extraction potential close to 2.4 vs Na+/Na0. An assembled NIC cell with the composite-positive electrode (activated carbon/NaBH4) and hard carbon as the negative one operates in the voltage range from 2.2 to 3.8 V for 5,000 cycles and retains 92% of its initial capacitance. The presented NIC has good efficiency >98% and energy density of ca. 18 W h kg−1 at power 2 kW kg−1 which is more than the energy (7 W h kg−1 at 2 kW kg−1) of an electrical double-layer capacitor (EDLC) operating at voltage 2.7 V with the equivalent components as in NIC. Tin phosphide (Sn4P3) as a negative electrode allowed the reaching of higher values of the specific energy density 33 W h kg−1 (ca. four times higher than EDLC) at the power density of 2 kW kg−1, with only 1% of capacity loss upon 5,000 cycles and efficiency >99%.

Abstract
The development of rechargeable Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) has been hindered by the lack of efficient cathode materials due to the strong binding of divalent zinc ions with the host lattice. Herein, we report a strategy that eliminates the participation of Zn2+ within the cathode chemistry. The approach involves the use of composite cathode materials that contain Zn halides (ZnCl2, ZnBr2, and ZnI2) and carbon (graphite or activated carbon), where the halide ions act both as charge carriers and redox centers while using a Zn2+-conducting water-in-salt gel electrolyte. The use of graphite in the composite electrode produced batterylike behavior, where the voltage plateau was related to the standard potential of the halogen species. When activated carbon was used in the composite, however, the cell acted as a hybrid Zn-ion capacitor due to the fast, reversible halide ion electrosorption/desorption in the carbon pores. The ZnX2-activated carbon composite delivers a capacity of over 400 mAh g-1 and cell energy density of 140 Wh kg-1 while retaining over 95% of its capacity after 500 cycles. The halogen reaction mechanism has been elucidated using combinations of electrochemical and in situ spectroscopic techniques.

Abstract
As a tradeoff between supercapacitors and batteries, lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are designed to deliver high energy density, high power density, and long cycling stability. Owing to the different energy storage mechanisms of capacitor-type cathodes and battery-type anodes, engineering and fabricating LICs with excellent energy density and power density remains a challenge. Herein, to alleviate the mismatch between the anode and cathode, we ingeniously designed a graphene with oxidized-polydopamine coating (LG@DA1) and N,P codoped porous foam structure activated carbon (CPC750) as the battery-type anode and capacitor-type cathode, respectively. Using oxidized-polydopamine to stabilize the structure of graphene, increase layer spacing, and modify the surface chemical property, the LG@DA1 anode delivers a maximum capacity of 1100 mAh g-1 as well as good cycling stability. With N,P codoping and a porous foam structure, the CPC750 cathode exhibits a large effective specific surface area and a high specific capacity of 87.5 mAh g-1. In specific, the present LG@DA1//CPC750 LIC showcases a high energy density of 170.6 Wh kg-1 and superior capacity retention of 93.5% after 2000 cycles. The success of the present LIC can be attributed to the structural stability design, surface chemistry regulation, and enhanced utilization of effective active sites of the anode and cathode; thus, this strategy can be applied to improve the performance of LICs.

Abstract
Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) have gained significant attention in recent years for their increased energy density without altering their power density. LICs achieve higher capacitance than traditional supercapacitors due to their hybrid battery electrode and subsequent higher voltage. This is due to the asymmetric action of LICs, which serves as an enhancer of traditional supercapacitors. This culminates in the potential for pollution-free, long-lasting, and efficient energy-storing that is required to realise a renewable energy future. This review article offers an analysis of recent progress in the production of LIC electrode active materials, requirements and performance. In-situ hybridisation and ex-situ recombination of composite materials comprising a wide variety of active constituents is also addressed. The possible challenges and opportunities for future research based on LICs in energy applications are also discussed.

Abstract
High-performance and low-cost sodium-ion capacitors (SICs) show tremendous potential applications in public transport and grid energy storage. However, conventional SICs are limited by the low specific capacity, poor rate capability, and low initial coulombic efficiency (ICE) of anode materials. Herein, we report layered iron vanadate (Fe5V15O39 (OH)9·9H2O) ultrathin nanosheets with a thickness of ~ 2.2 nm (FeVO UNSs) as a novel anode for rapid and reversible sodium-ion storage. According to in situ synchrotron X-ray diffractions and electrochemical analysis, the storage mechanism of FeVO UNSs anode is Na+ intercalation pseudocapacitance under a safe potential window. The FeVO UNSs anode delivers high ICE (93.86%), high reversible capacity (292 mAh g-1), excellent cycling stability, and remarkable rate capability. Furthermore, a pseudocapacitor-battery hybrid SIC (PBH-SIC) consisting of pseudocapacitor-type FeVO UNSs anode and battery-type Na3(VO)2(PO4)2F cathode is assembled with the elimination of presodiation treatments. The PBH-SIC involves faradaic reaction on both cathode and anode materials, delivering a high energy density of 126 Wh kg-1 at 91 W kg-1, a high power density of 7.6 kW kg-1 with an energy density of 43 Wh kg-1, and 9000 stable cycles. The tunable vanadate materials with high-performance Na+ intercalation pseudocapacitance provide a direction for developing next-generation high-energy capacitors.

Abstract
Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are now drawing increasing attention because of their potential to overcome the current energy limitations of supercapacitors and power limitations of lithium-ion batteries. In this work, we designed LICs by combining an electric double-layer capacitor cathode and a lithium-ion battery anode. Both the cathode and anode are derived from graphene-modified phenolic resin with tunable porosity and microstructure. They exhibit high specific capacity, superior rate capability and good cycling stability. Benefiting from the graphene-enhanced electrode materials, the all graphene-based LICs demonstrate a high working voltage (4.2 V), high energy density of 142.9 Wh kg-1, maximum power density of 12.1 kW kg-1 with energy density of 50 Wh kg-1, and long stable cycling performance (with ∼88% capacity retention after 5000 cycles). Considering the high performance of the device, the cost-effective and facile preparation process of the active materials, this all graphene-based lithium-ion capacitor could have many promising applications in energy storage systems.

Abstract
Lithium-ion hybrid capacitors (LICs) are regarded as one of the most promising next generation energy storage devices. Commercial activated carbon materials with low cost and excellent cycling stability are widely used as cathode materials for LICs, however, their low energy density remains a significant challenge for the practical applications of LICs. Herein, Na0.76V6O15 nanobelts (NaVO) were prepared and combined with commercial activated carbon YP50D to form hybrid cathode materials. Credit to the synergism of its capacitive effect and diffusion-controlled faradaic effect, NaVO/C hybrid cathode displays both superior cyclability and enhanced capacity. LICs were assembled with the as-prepared NaVO/C hybrid cathode and artificial graphite anode which was pre-lithiated. Furthermore, 10-NaVO/C//AG LIC delivers a high energy density of 118.9 Wh kg−1 at a power density of 220.6 W kg−1 and retains 43.7 Wh kg−1 even at a high power density of 21,793.0 W kg−1. The LIC can also maintain long-term cycling stability with capacitance retention of approximately 70% after 5000 cycles at 1 A g−1. Accordingly, hybrid cathodes composed of commercial activated carbon and a small amount of high energy battery-type materials are expected to be a candidate for low-cost advanced LICs with both high energy density and power density.

Abstract
Though solar energy availability is predicted for centuries, the diurnal and asymmetrical nature of the sun across the globe presents significant challenges in terms of harvesting sunlight. Photo/electro-catalysis, currently believed to be the bottleneck, promises a potential solution to these challenges along with a green and sustainable environment. This review aims to provide the current highlights on the application of inorganic-semiconductor-based ternary nanocomposites for H2 production and pollutant removal. Various engineering strategies employing integration of 2D materials, 1D nanorods, and/or 0D nanoparticles with inorganic semiconductors to create multiple nano-junctions have been developed for the excellent photocatalytic activity. Following a succinct description of the latest progress in photocatalysts, a discussion on the importance of ternary electrocatalysts in the field of next-generation supercapacitors has been included. Finally, the authors' perspectives are considered briefly, including future developments and critical technical challenges in the ever-growing field of photo/electro-catalysis.

Abstract
Constructing the nanostructure of transition metal oxides for high energy density lithium-ion batteries has been widely studied recently. Prompted by the idea that the transition metal can serve as a catalyzer influence on the reversibility of solid-electrolyte interphase films, Co/MnO@C composite nanofibers were designed by electrospinning and chemical vapor deposition methods. The Co/MnO@C electrode showed superior electrochemical performance with a large capacity increase for the first 400 cycles and a high rate performance of 1345 mA h g-1 at 1000 mA g-1. There was no obvious decay of capacity over the whole 1000 cycles, demonstrating the excellent cycling stability of the samples. The new design and synthesis of the anodic materials may offer a prototype for high-performance and strong-stability batteries.

Abstract
Sodium (Na)-ion capacitors possess higher energy density than supercapacitors and higher power density than Na-ion batteries. However, kinetic mismatches between fast capacitive charge storage on the cathode and sluggish battery-type reactions on the anode lead to a poor charge/discharge rate capability and insufficient power output of Na-ion capacitors. Thus, developing suitable anode materials for Na-ion capacitors is urgently desirable. This work demonstrates an electrochemically exfoliated graphite (EEG) anode with enhanced capacitive charge storage, greatly boosting the Na-ion reaction kinetics of co-intercalation. The EEG anode shows a high reversible capacity of 109 mAh g-1 and maintains a good capacity retention of 90% after 1000 cycles. The assembled Na-ion capacitor using the EEG anode can finish the charge/discharge process in less than 10 s, which achieves an ultrahigh power density of 17,500 W kg-1 with an energy density of 17 Wh kg-1. The high capacitive contributions at both the anode and cathode contribute to the fast rate capability and high power output of the fabricated Na-ion capacitors. This work will promote the development of ultrafast charging sodium-ion storage devices.

Abstract
As a new type of capacitor-battery hybrid energy storage device, metal-ion capacitors have attracted widespread attention because of their high-power density while ensuring energy density and long lifespan. Potassium-ion capacitors (KICs) featuring the merits of abundant potassium resources, lower standard electrode potential, and low cost have been considered as potential alternatives to lithium-/sodium-ion capacitors. However, KICs still face issues including unsatisfactory reaction kinetics, low energy density, and poor lifetime owing to the large radius of the potassium ion. In this Review, the importance of emerging potassium-ion capacitor is addressed. The Review offers a brief discussion of the fundamental working principle of KICs, along with an overview of recent advances and achievements of a variety of electrode materials for dual carbon and non-dual carbon KICs. Furthermore, electrolyte chemistry, binders as well as electrode/electrolyte interface, are summarized. Finally, existing challenges and perspectives on further development of KICs are also presented.

Insight into Electrical and Dielectric Relaxation of Doped Tellurite Lithium-Silicate Glasses with Regard to Ionic Charge Carrier Number Density Estimation. MATERIALS 2020; 13:ma13225232.

Abstract
We investigate the role of tellurite on a lithium-silicate glass 0.1 TeO2 − 0.9 (Li2O-2SiO2) (LSTO) system proposed for the use in solid electrolyte for lithium ion batteries. The measurements of electrical impedance are performed in the frequency 100 Hz–30 MHz and temperature from 50 to 150 °C. The electrical conductivity of LSTO glass increases compared with that of Li2O-2SiO2 (LSO) glass due to an increase in the number of Li+ ions. The ionic hopping and relaxation processes in disordered solids are generally explained using Cole–Cole, power law and modulus representations. The power law conductivity analysis, which is driven by the modified Rayleigh equation, presents the estimation of the number of ionic charge carriers explicitly. The estimation counts for direct contribution of about a 14% increase in direct current conductivity in the case of TeO2 doping. The relaxation process by modulus analysis confirms that the cations are trapped strongly in the potential wells. Both the direct current and alternating current activation energies (0.62–0.67 eV) for conduction in the LSO glass are the same as those in the LSTO glass.

[PMID: 36659121 DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2020.07.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2020] [Revised: 06/28/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Development of high-voltage electrolytes with non-flammability is significantly important for future energy storage devices. Aqueous electrolytes are inherently non-flammable, easy to handle, and their electrochemical stability windows (ESWs) can be considerably expanded by increasing electrolyte concentrations. However, further breakthroughs of their ESWs encounter bottlenecks because of the limited salt solubility, leading to that most of the high-energy anode materials can hardly function reversibly in aqueous electrolytes. Here, by introducing a non-flammable ionic liquid as co-solvent in a lithium salt/water system, we develop a "water in salt/ionic liquid" (WiSIL) electrolyte with extremely low water content. In such WiSIL electrolyte, commercial niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5) material can operate at a low potential (-1.6 V versus Ag/AgCl) and contribute its full capacity. Consequently, the resultant Nb2O5-based aqueous lithium-ion capacitor is able to operate at a high voltage of 2.8 V along with long cycling stability over 3000 cycles, and displays comparable energy and power performance (51.9 Wh kg-1 at 0.37 kW kg-1 and 16.4 Wh kg-1 at 4.9 kW kg-1) to those using non-aqueous electrolytes but with improved safety performance and manufacturing efficiency.

Abstract
Wearable self-powered systems integrated with energy conversion and storage devices such as solar-charging power units arouse widespread concerns in scientific and industrial realms. However, their applications are hampered by the restrictions of unbefitting size matching between integrated modules, limited tolerance to the variation of input current, reliability, and safety issues. Herein, flexible solar-charging self-powered units based on printed Zn-ion hybrid micro-capacitor as the energy storage module is developed. Unique 3D micro-/nano-architecture of the biomass kelp-carbon combined with multivalent ion (Zn2+) storage endows the aqueous Zn-ion hybrid capacitor with high specific capacity (196.7 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1). By employing an in-plane asymmetric printing technique, the fabricated quasi-solid-state Zn-ion hybrid micro-capacitors exhibit high rate, long life and energy density up to 8.2 μWh cm-2. After integrating the micro-capacitor with organic solar cells, the derived self-powered system presents outstanding energy conversion/storage efficiency (ηoverall = 17.8%), solar-charging cyclic stability (95% after 100 cycles), wide current tolerance, and good mechanical flexibility. Such portable, wearable, and green integrated units offer new insights into design of advanced self-powered systems toward the goal of developing highly safe, economic, stable, and long-life smart wearable electronics.

Abstract
Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an emerging desalination technology for effective removal of ionic species from aqueous solutions. Compared to conventional CDI, which is based on carbon electrodes and struggles with high salinity streams due to a limited salt removal capacity by ion electrosorption and excessive co-ion expulsion, the emerging Faradaic electrodes provide unique opportunities to upgrade the CDI performance, i.e., achieving much higher salt removal capacities and energy-efficient desalination for high salinity streams, due to the Faradaic reaction for ion capture. This article presents a comprehensive overview on the current developments of Faradaic electrode materials for CDI. Here, the fundamentals of Faradaic electrode-based CDI are first introduced in detail, including novel CDI cell architectures, key CDI performance metrics, ion capture mechanisms, and the design principles of Faradaic electrode materials. Three main categories of Faradaic electrode materials are summarized and discussed regarding their crystal structure, physicochemical characteristics, and desalination performance. In particular, the ion capture mechanisms in Faradaic electrode materials are highlighted to obtain a better understanding of the CDI process. Moreover, novel tailored applications, including selective ion removal and contaminant removal, are specifically introduced. Finally, the remaining challenges and research directions are also outlined to provide guidelines for future research.

Abstract
Stable battery operation involving high-capacity electrode materials such as tin (Sn) has been plagued by dimensional instability-driven battery degradation despite the potentially accessible high energy density of batteries. Rational design of Sn-based electrodes inevitably requires buffering or passivation layers mostly in a multi-stacked manner with sufficient void inside the shells. However, undesirable void engineering incurs energy loss and shell fracture during the strong calendaring process. Here, this study reports an inverse design of freestanding 3D graphene electrodes sequentially passivated by capacity-contributing Sn and protective/buffering TiO2 . Monodisperse polymer bead templates coated with inner TiO2 and outer SnO2 layers generate regular macropores and 3D interconnected graphene framework while the inner TiO2 shell turns inside out to fully passivate the surface of Sn nanoparticles during the thermal annealing process. The prepared 3D freestanding electrodes are simultaneously buffered by electronically conductive and flexible graphene support and ion-permeable/mechanically stable TiO2 nanoshells, thus greatly extending the cycle life of batteries more than 5000 cycles at 5 C with a reversible capacity of ≈520 mAh g-1 with a high volumetric energy density.

Abstract
Li2O-2B2O3 (LBO) ionic conductor with high conductivity plays an important role in boosting the rate performance and cycling stability of Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) anode for lithium-ion batteries by preventing direct exposure of LTO to the electrolyte. Herein, the effect of LBO coating layer on lithium ion (Li+) storage performance is investigated in detail by adjusting the adding amount of LBO precursor dispersion. LTO coated with 2 wt% LBO achieves an optimum performance with a specific capacity of 172.9 mA h g-1 at a current density of 0.1 A g-1, an improved rate capability (specific capacity of 127.9 mA h g-1 is maintained when the current density is 20 times than 0.1 A g-1) and a remarkable cycling stability (capacity retention of 94.2% after 4000 cycles at 2.0 A g-1). These LBO-LTO composites are competitive and promising candidates for electrochemical energy storage and other applications.

Abstract
Potassium-ion hybrid capacitors (PIHCs) have attracted tremendous attention because their energy density is comparable to that of lithium-ion batteries, whose power density and cyclability are similar to those of supercapacitors. Herein, a pomegranate-like graphene-confined cucurbit[6]uril-derived nitrogen-doped carbon (CBC@G) with ultra-high nitrogen-doping level (15.5 at%) and unique supermesopore-macropores interconnected graphene network is synthesized. The carbonization mechanism of cucurbit[6]uril is verified by an in situ TG-IR technology. In a K half-cell configuration, CBC@G anode demonstrates a superior reversible capacity (349.1 mA h g-1 at 0.1 C) as well as outstanding rate capability and cyclability. Moreover, systematic in situ/ex situ characterizations, and theory calculations are carried out to reveal the origin of the superior electrochemical performances of CBC@G. Consequently, PIHCs constructed with CBC@G anode and KOH-activated cucurbit[6]uril-derived nitrogen-doped carbon cathode demonstrate ultra-high energy/power density (172 Wh kg-1/22 kW kg-1) and extraordinary cyclability (81.5% capacity retention for 5000 cycles at 5 A g-1). This work opens up a new application field for cucurbit[6]uril and provides an alternative avenue for the exploitation of high-performance PIHCs.

Abstract
Pseudocapacitance has been confirmed to significantly improve the rate capability and cycling durability of electrode materials. However, rational design and controllable synthesis of intercalation pseudocapacitive materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) still remain greatly challenging. Herein, a core-shell TiO2-based anode composed of S-, Co-, and N-doped amorphous TiO2/C framework cores and ultrathin anatase TiO2 nanosheet shells (SCN-TC@UT) was synthesized using Ti-based metal-organic frameworks (Ti-MOFs) as self-sacrificing templates coupled with a solvothermal sulfidation process. Thanks to heteroatom doping, integration of carbon species, and 2D nanosheet coating, the kinetic properties of SCN-TC@UT have been significantly improved. As a consequence, the anode achieves ultrahigh capacitive contributions up to 90.9 and 96.3% of the total capacity at scan rates of 5 and 10 mV s-1 and delivers unprecedented capacities of 211, 201, and 100 mA h g-1 at 1, 5, and 30 C (1 C=335 mA g-1) for over 800, 2000, and 18,000 cycles, respectively. Even at an ultrahigh rate of 50 C, the anode can still deliver a capacity of 108 mA h g-1. This work demonstrates the most efficient TiO2-based anode ever reported for SIBs and holds great potential in directing the development of amorphous materials for intercalation pseudocapacitance.

Abstract
Three-dimensional dendritic nanostructured carbon florets (NCFs) with tailored porosity are demonstrated as electrochemically versatile electrodes for both adsorptive and intercalative energy storage pathways. Achieved through a single-step template-driven approach, the NCFs exhibit turbostratic graphitic lamellae in a floral assembly leading to high specific surface area and multi-modal pore distribution (920 m2/g). The synergism in structural and chemical frameworks, along with open-ended morphology, enables bifunctionality of hard carbon NCFs as symmetric adsorptive electrodes for supercapacitors (SCs) and intercalation anodes for hybrid potassium-ion capacitors (KICs). Flexible, all-solid-state SCs through facile integration of NCF with the ionic-liquid-imbibed porous polymeric matrix achieve high-energy density (20 W h/kg) and power density (32.7 kW/kg) without compromising on mechanical flexibility and cyclability (94% after 20k cycles). Furthermore, NCF as an anode in a full-cell hybrid KIC (activated carbon as cathode) delivers excellent electrochemical performance with maximum energy and power densities of 57 W h/kg and 12.5 kW/kg, respectively, when cycled in a potential window of 1.0-4.0 V. The exceptional bifunctional performance of NCF highlights the possibility of utilizing such engineered nanocarbons for high-performance energy storage devices.

During recent decades, a significant amount of research has been dedicated to enhancing the electrochemical performance of the supercapacitors through the development of novel electrode materials. In addition to highlighting the charge storage mechanism of the three main categories of supercapacitors, including the electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs), pseudocapacitors, and the hybrid supercapacitors, this review describes the insights of the recent electrode materials (including, carbon-based materials, metal oxide/hydroxide-based materials, and conducting polymer-based materials, 2D materials). The nanocomposites offer larger SSA, shorter ion/electron diffusion paths, thus improving the specific capacitance of supercapacitors (SCs). Besides, the incorporation of the redox-active small molecules and bio-derived functional groups displayed a significant effect on the electrochemical properties of electrode materials. These advanced properties provide a vast range of potential for the electrode materials to be utilized in different applications such as in wearable/portable/electronic devices such as all-solid-state supercapacitors, transparent/flexible supercapacitors, and asymmetric hybrid supercapacitors.

Abstract
Aqueous hybrid supercapacitors are attracting increasing attention due to their potential low cost, high safety and eco-friendliness. However, the narrow operating potential window of aqueous electrolyte and the lack of suitable negative electrode materials seriously hinder its future applications. Here, we explore high concentrated lithium acetate with high ionic conductivity of 65.5 mS cm-1 as a green "water-in-salt" electrolyte, providing wide voltage window up to 2.8 V. It facilitates the reversible function of niobium tungsten oxide, Nb18W16O93, that otherwise only operations in organic electrolytes previously. The Nb18W16O93 with lithium-ion intercalation pseudocapacitive behavior exhibits excellent rate performance, high areal capacity, and ultra-long cycling stability. An aqueous lithium-ion hybrid capacitor is developed by using Nb18W16O93 as negative electrode combined with graphene as positive electrode in lithium acetate-based "water-in-salt" electrolyte, delivering a high energy density of 41.9 W kg-1, high power density of 20,000 W kg-1 and unexceptionable stability of 50,000 cycles.

Abstract
The viability of the sodium-ion batteries as a post-lithium storage technology is strongly tied to the development of high-performance carbonaceous anode materials. This requires screening novel precursors, and tuning their electrochemical properties. Soft carbons as promising anode materials, not only for batteries, but also in hybrid capacitors, have drawn great attention, due to safe operation voltage and high-power properties. Herein, several vinyl polymer-derived soft carbons have been prepared via pyrolysis, and their physicochemical and sodium storage properties have been evaluated. According to the obtained results, vinyl polymers are a promising source for preparation of soft carbon anode materials for sodium-ion battery application. In addition, their applicability towards Li-ion battery and hybrid capacitors (e.g., Li ion capacitors, LICs) has been examined. This work not only contrasts the carbonization products of these polymers with relevant physicochemical characterization, but also screens potential precursors for soft carbons with interesting alkali metal-ion (e.g., Na or Li, with an emphasis on Na) storage properties. This can stimulate further research to tune and improve the electrochemical properties of the soft carbons for energy storage applications.

Abstract
Bridging the energy gap between batteries and capacitors, while in principle delivering a supercapacitor-like high power density and long lifespan, sodium-ion capacitors (SIC) have been considered promising energy storage devices that could be commercialized in the near future due to the natural abundance of sodium sources and the performance superiority of SIC devices. Therefore, in the past decade, substantial research efforts have been devoted to their structure and property improvements. With regard to the electrochemical performance of an ion capacitor, except for the electrode, the composition and structure of the electrolytes are also of great importance. Thus, in this mini review, we present a brief summary of the electrolytes developed recently for high performance SIC, including aqueous, organic, and ionic liquid based electrolytes. The influence factors such as ionic conductivities, electrolyte concentrations, electrochemical stable windows, as well as the cost and safety issues are discussed. Furthermore, the future perspectives and challenges in the science and engineering of new electrolytes are also considered. We hope that this review may be helpful to the energy storage community regarding the electrolytes of advanced SIC systems.

Abstract
Inkjet-printing (IJP) technology is recognized as a significant breakthrough in manufacturing high-performance electrochemical energy storage systems. In comparison to conventional fabrication protocols, this printing technique offers various advantages, such as contact-less high-resolution patterning capability; low-cost, controlled material deposition; process simplicity; and compatibility with a variety of substrates. Due to these outstanding merits, significant research efforts have been devoted to utilizing IJP technology in developing electrochemical energy storage devices, particularly in supercapacitors (SCs). These attempts have focused on fabricating the key components of SCs, including electrode, electrolyte, and current collector, through rational formulation and patterning of functional inks. In an attempt to further expand the material design strategy and accelerate technology development, it is urgent and essential to obtain an in-depth insight into the recent developments of inkjet-printed SCs. Toward this aim, first, a general introduction to the fundamental principles of IJP technology is provided. After that, the latest achievements in IJP of capacitive energy storage devices are systematically summarized and discussed with a particular emphasis on the design of printable functional materials, the printing process, and capacitive performance of inkjet-printed SCs. To close, existing challenges and future research trends for developing state-of-the-art inkjet-printed SCs are proposed.

Abstract
Hybrid energy storage systems have shown great promise for many applications; however, achieving high energy and power densities with long cycle stability remains a major challenge. Here, a strategy to synthesize high-tap density anode and cathode structures that yield ultrahigh performance in hybrid energy storage is reported. First, vinyl acetate monomers are polymerized into molecular sizes via chain reactions controlled by the surface free radicals of graphene and metals. Subsequently, molecular-size polymers are thermally evaporated to construct battery-type anode structures with encapsulated tin metals for high-capacity and stratified graphene pliable pockets (GPPs) for fast charge transfer. Similarly, sulfur particles are attached to GPPs via monomeric polymerization, and capacitor-type hollow GPP (H@GPP) cathode structures are produced by evaporating sulfur, where sublimated S particles yield mesopores for rapid anion movement and micropores for high capacity. Moreover, hybrid full-cell devices with high-tap density anodes and cathodes show high gravimetric energy densities of up to 206.9 Wh kg-1 , exceeding those of capacitors by ≈16-fold, and excellent volumetric energy densities of up to 92.7 Wh L-1 . Additionally, they attain high power densities of up to 23 678 W kg-1 , outperforming conventional devices by a factor of ≈100, and long cycle stability over 10 000 cycles.

Abstract
Two dimensional (2D) porous materials have great potential in electrochemical energy conversion and storage. Over the past five years, our research group has focused on Simple, Mass, Homogeneous and Repeatable Synthesis of various 2D porous materials and their applications for electrochemical energy storage especially for supercapacitors (SCs). During the experimental process, through precisely controlling the experimental parameters, such as reaction species, molar ratio of different ions, concentration, pH value of reaction solution, heating temperature, and reaction time, we have successfully achieved the control of crystal structure, composition, crystallinity, morphology, and size of these 2D porous materials including transition metal oxides (TMOs), transition metal hydroxides (TMHOs), transition metal oxalates (TMOXs), transition metal coordination complexes (TMCCs) and carbon materials, as well as their derivatives and composites. We have also named some of them with CQU-Chen (CQU is the initialism of Chongqing University, Chen is the last name of Lingyun Chen), such as CQU-Chen-Co-O-1, CQU-Chen-Ni-O-H-1, CQU-Chen-Zn-Co-O-1, CQU-Chen-Zn-Co-O-2, CQU-Chen-OA-Co-2-1, CQU-Chen-Co-OA-1, CQU-Chen-Ni-OA-1, CQU-Chen-Gly-Co-3-1, CQU-Chen-Gly-Ni-2-1, CQU-Chen-Gly-Co-Ni-1, etc. The introduction of 2D porous materials as electrode materials for SCs improves the energy storage performances. These materials provide a large number of active sites for ion adsorption, supply plentiful channels for fast ion transport and boost electrical conductivity and facilitate electron transportation and ion penetration. The unique 2D porous structures review is mainly devoted to the introduction of our contribution in the 2D porous nanostructured materials for SC. Finally, the further directions about the preparation of 2D porous materials and electrochemical energy conversion and storage applications are also included.
