Abstract
The field of hybrid materials has grown so wildly in the last 30 years that writing a comprehensive review has turned into an impossible mission. Yet, the need for a general view of the field remains, and it would be certainly useful to draw a scientific and technological map connecting the dots of the very different subfields of hybrid materials, a map which could relate the essential common characteristics of these fascinating materials while providing an overview of the very different combinations, synthetic approaches, and final applications formulated in this field, which has become a whole world. That is why we decided to write this metareview, that is, a review of reviews that could provide an eagle's eye view of a complex and varied landscape of materials which nevertheless share a common driving force: the power of hybridization.

Abstract
Water droplets are usually charged positively via either electrospray or contact electrification at the solid/liquid interface. Herein, we describe a facile two-step strategy to generate charged droplets with desired polarities. In particular, negatively charged droplets can be generated via electrostatic induction using a precharged superamphiphobic substrate as an electret. The interplay of repulsive and attractive interactions between like- and unlike-charged droplets or electret leads to rapid droplet transport and self-assembly of specific highly ordered arrays.

Abstract
To overcome inferior rate capability and cycle stability of MnO-based anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), we reported a novel 3D porous MnO@GS/CNT composite, consisting of MnO nanoparticles homogeneously distributed on the conductive interconnected framework based on 2D graphene sheets (GS) and 1D carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The distinctive architecture offers highly interpenetrated network along with efficient porous channels for fast electron transfer and ionic diffusion as well as abundant stress buffer space to accommodate the volume expansion of the MnO nanoparticles. The MnO@GS/CNT anode exhibits an ultrahigh capacity of 1115 mAh g-1 at 0.2 A g-1 after 150 cycles and outstanding rate capacity of 306 mAh g-1 at 10.0 A g-1. Moreover, a stable capacity of 405 mAh g-1 after 3200 cycles can still be achieved, even at a large current density of 5.0 A g-1. When coupled with LiMn2O4 (LMO) cathode, the LMO [Formula: see text] MnO@GS/CNT full cell characterizes an excellent cycling stability and rate capability, indicating the promising application of MnO@GS/CNT anode in the next-generation LIBs.

Abstract
Boosting the lifespan of MnO-based materials for future lithium ion batteries is one of the primary challenges due to the intrinsic low ionic conductivity and volume expansion during the conversion process. Herein, superior lithium storage in a new quaternary MnO-Cu-CNT/graphene composite has been demonstrated, which is boosted by pseudocapacitance benefitting from the three-dimensional CNT/graphene and nanosized Cu additives. Such architecture offers highly interpenetrated porous conductive networks in intimate contact with MnO-Cu grains and abundant stress buffer space for effective charge transport upon cycling. The ternary MnO-Cu-graphene electrode contributes an ever-increasing reversible capacity of 938.3 mA h g-1 after 800 cycles at 0.8 A g-1. In particular, the quaternary MnO-Cu-CNT/graphene electrode demonstrates a high specific capacity of 1334 mA h g-1 at 0.8 A g-1 after 800 cycles and long lifetimes of more than 3500 cycles at 5 A g-1 with a capacity of 557.9 mA h g-1 and close-to-100% Coulombic efficiency. The boosted pseudocapacitive lithium storage together with the simple material fabrication method in a MnO-Cu-CNT/graphene hybrid could pave the way for the development of high-capacity and long-life energy storage devices.

Abstract
To improve the efficiency of cobalt-based catalysts for water electrolysis, tremendous efforts have been dedicated to tuning the composition, morphology, size, and structure of the materials. We report here a facile preparation of orthorhombic CoTe2 nanocrystals embedded in an N-doped graphitic carbon matrix to form a 3D architecture with a size of ∼500 nm and abundant mesopores of ∼4 nm for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The hybrid electrocatalyst delivers a small overpotential of 300 mV at 10 mA cm-2, which is much lower than that for pristine CoTe2 powder. After cycling for 2000 cycles or driving continual OER for 20 h, only a slight loss is observed. The mesoporous 3D architecture and the strong interaction between N-doped graphitic carbon and CoTe2 are responsible for the enhancement of the electrocatalytic performance.

Abstract
Sodium iron hexacyanoferrate (Fe-HCF) has been proposed as a promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) because of its desirable advantages, including high theoretical capacity (∼170 mAh g-1), eco-friendliness, and low cost of worldwide rich sodium and iron resources. Nonetheless, its application faces a number of obstacles due to poor electronic conductivity and structural instability. In this work, Fe-HCF nanospheres (NSs) were first synthesized and fabricated by an in situ graphene rolls (GRs) wrapping method, forming a 1D tubular hierarchical structure of Fe-HCF NSs@GRs. GRs not only provide fast electronic conduction path for Fe-HCF NSs but also effectively prevent organic electrolyte from reaching active materials and inhibit the occurrence of side reactions. The Fe-HCF NSs@GRs composite has been used as a binder-free cathode with a capacity of ∼110 mAh g-1 at a current density of 150 mA g-1 (∼1C), the capacity retention of ∼90% after 500 cycles. Moreover, the Fe-HCF NSs@GRs cathode displays a super high rate capability with ∼95 mAh g-1 at 1500 mA g-1 (∼10C). The results suggest that the 1D tubular structure of 2D GRs-wrapped Fe-HCF NSs is promising as a high-performance cathode for SIBs.
