Hydrogen-bonded micelle assembly directed conjugated microporous polymers for nanospherical carbon frameworks towards dual-ion capacitors. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 675:1091-1099. [PMID: 39032375 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.07.052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/06/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024]
Abstract
Well-orchestrated carbon nanostructure with superb stable framework and high surface accessibility is crucial for zinc-ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs). Herein, a hydrogen-bonded micelle self-assembly strategy is proposed for morphology-controllable synthesis of conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) derived carbon to boost zinc ion storage capability. In the strategy, F127 micellar assembly through intermolecular hydrogen bonds serves as structure-directed agents, directing CMPs' oligomers grow into nanospherical assembly. The nanospherical carbon frameworks derived from CMPs (CNS-2) have shown maximized surface accessibility due to their plentiful tunable porosity and hierarchical porous structure with abundant mesoporous interconnected channels, and superb stability originating from CMPs' robust framework, thus the CNS-2-based ZIHCs exhibit ultrahigh energy density of 163 Wh kg-1 and ultralong lifespan with 93 % capacity retention after 200, 000 cycles at 20 A g-1. Charged ion storage efficiency also lies in dual-ion alternate uptake of Zn2+ and CF3SO3- as well as chemical redox of Zn2+ with carbonyl/pyridine motifs forming O-Zn-N bonds. Maximized surface accessibility and dual-ion storage mechanism ensure excellent electrochemical performance. Thus, the hydrogen-bond-guide micelle self-assembly strategy has provided a facile way to design nanoarchitectures of CMPs derived carbon for advanced cathodes of ZIHCs.

Combination of nanoparticles with single-metal sites synergistically boosts co-catalyzed formic acid dehydrogenation. Nat Commun 2024; 15:8189.

Abstract
The development of hydrogen technologies is at the heart of a green economy. As prerequisite for implementation of hydrogen storage, active and stable catalysts for (de)hydrogenation reactions are needed. So far, the use of precious metals associated with expensive costs dominates in this area. Herein, we present a new class of lower-cost Co-based catalysts (Co-SAs/NPs@NC) in which highly distributed single-metal sites are synergistically combined with small defined nanoparticles allowing efficient formic acid dehydrogenation. The optimal material with atomically dispersed CoN2C2 units and encapsulated 7-8 nm nanoparticles achieves an excellent gas yield of 1403.8 mL·g-1·h-1 using propylene carbonate as solvent, with no activity loss after 5 cycles, which is 15 times higher than that of the commercial Pd/C. In situ analytic experiments show that Co-SAs/NPs@NC enhances the adsorption and activation of the key intermediate monodentate HCOO*, thereby facilitating the following C-H bond breaking, compared to related single metal atom and nanoparticle catalysts. Theoretical calculations show that the integration of cobalt nanoparticles elevates the d-band center of the Co single atoms as the active center, which consequently enhances the coupling of the carbonyl O of the HCOO* intermediate to the Co centers, thereby lowering the energy barrier.

Abstract
Due to the larger sizes and stronger positive polarity of Zn2+ than dominant univalent ions, Zn2+ sluggish diffusion within V2O5 host electrodes is an essential issue in developing aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) of higher energy densities. Herein, a high-performance V2O5 cathode was developed through subtly synthesizing and tuning V2O5 with oxygen vacancies-enriched and elongated apical V=O1 bond by altering the gradient concentration of hydrazine hydrate in the gas-solid reaction system. This strategy can enhance both intrinsic and extrinsic conductivity to a large extent. The electrochemical testing demonstrated the oxygen vacancies-enriched and elongated apical V=O1 bond can not only increase the intrinsic electronic conductivity of V2O5, but also induce additional pseudocapacitance to enhance the Zn2+ diffusion kinetics. We used infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy to characterize the change in the bond length structure of V2O5. Simultaneously, the long-term cyclability (capacity retention of 76.9 % after 1200 cycles at 4.0 A g-1) and rate capabilities (218 mAh g-1 at 4.0 A g-1) are promoted as well. We believe that our work might shed light on the bond length engineering of V2O5 and provide insights for the reasonable designing of novel cathodes for practical rechargeable ZIBs.

Abstract
Anisotropic etching is a powerful way to customize metal-organic frameworks with advanced nanostructures, but it is still in its infancy. Herein, we proposed an unprecedented etching strategy that created anisotropic hollow structures in various zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) nano/single crystals via pore-specific carving. The etching occurred through a newly discovered gas-solid reaction where carboxylic acid vapors bind with ligands in ZIFs at room temperature to form ionic liquid (IL). A series of experiments were conducted to decode the origin of anisotropy and the "hollowing out" effect. We found that large pore openings on {111} facets provide access for the entry of carboxylic acid vapors and the outflow of the IL, resulting in pore-dependent anisotropy features. The unique "etching after adsorption" mechanism and the adsorption capacity of the IL enable acid vapors to hollow out nanocrystals and even single crystals. By altering carboxylic acids and ligands in ZIFs, the etching process can be precisely tuned from the inside out or the outside in. This new method demonstrates broad universality and brings unprecedented morphologies and complexities. It may offer great opportunities for achieving purposeful modification of ZIFs and the rational construction of intricate architectures.

Abstract
Capacitive carbon cathodes deliver great potential for zinc-ion hybrid capacitors (ZHCs) due to their resource abundance and structural versatility. However, the dimension mismatch between the micropores of carbons and hydrated Zn2+ ions often results in unsatisfactory charge storage capability. Here well-arranged heterodiatomic carbon superstructures are reported with compatible pore dimensions for activating Zn2+ ions, initiated by the supramolecular self-assembly of 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine and cyanuric acid via in-plane hydrogen-bonds and out-of-plane π-π interactions. Flower-shaped carbon superstructures expose more surface-active motifs, continuous charge-transport routes, and more importantly, well-developed pores. The primary subnanopores of 0.82 nm are size-exclusively accessible for solvated Zn2+ ions (0.86 nm) to maximize spatial charge storage, while rich mesopores (1-3 nm) allow for high-kinetics ion migration with a low activation energy. Such favorable superstructure cathodes contribute to all-round performance improvement for ZHCs, including high energy density (158 Wh kg-1), fast-charging ability (50 A g-1), and excellent cyclic lifespan (100 000 cycles). An anion-cation hybrid charge storage mechanism is elucidated for superstructure cathode, which entails alternate physical uptake of Zn2+/CF3SO3 - at electroactive pores and bipedal chemical binding of Zn2+ to electronegative carbonyl/pyridine motifs. This work expands the design landscape of carbon superstructures for advanced energy storage.

Abstract
Polymetallic phosphides exhibit favorable conductivities. A reasonable design of nano-metal-organic frame (MOF) composite morphologies and in situ introduction of polymetallic phosphides into the framework can effectively improve electrolyte penetration and rapid electron transfer. To address existing challenges, Ni, with a strong coordination ability with N, is introduced to partially replace Co in nano-Co-MOF composite. The hollow nanostructure is stabilized through CoNi bimetallic coordination and low-temperature controllable polymetallic phosphide generation rate. The Ni, Co, and P atoms, generated during reduction, effectively enhance electron transfer rate within the framework. X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) characterization results further confirm the existence of Ni-N, Ni-Ni, and Co-Co structures in the nanocomposite. The changes in each component during the charge-discharge process of the electrochemical reactions are investigated using in situ X-ray diffraction (XRD). Theoretical calculations further confirm that P can effectively improve conductivity. VZNPGC//MXene MSCs, constructed with active materials derived from the hollow nano MOF composites synthesized through the Ni2+ stabilization strategy, demonstrate a specific capacitance of 1184 mF cm-2, along with an energy density of 236.75 µWh cm-2 (power density of 0.14 mW cm-2). This approach introduces a new direction for the synthesis of highly conductive nano-MOF composites.

Abstract
Iron-based materials are effective for the reductive removal of the disinfection byproduct bromate in water, while the construction of highly stable and active Fe-based materials with wide pH adaptability remains greatly challenging. In this study, highly dispersed iron phosphide-decorated porous carbon (Fe2P(x)@P(z)NC-y) was prepared via the thermal hydrolysis of Fe@ZIF-8, followed by phosphorus doping (P-doping) and pyrolysis. The reduction performances of Fe2P(x)@P(z)NC-y for bromate reduction were evaluated. Characterization results showed that the Fe, P, and N elements were homogeneously distributed in the carbonaceous matrix. P-doping regulated the coordination environment of Fe atoms and enhanced the conductivity, porosity, and wettability of the carbonaceous matrix. As a result, Fe2P(x)@P(1.0)NC-950 exhibited enhanced reactivity and stability with an intrinsic reduction kinetic constant (kint) 1.53-1.85 times higher than Fe(x)@NC-950 without P-doping. Furthermore, Fe2P(0.125)@P(1.0)NC-950 displayed superior reduction efficiency and prominent stability with very low Fe leaching (4.53-22.98 μg L-1) in a wide pH range of 4.0-10.0. The used Fe2P(0.125)@P(1.0)NC-950 could be regenerated by phosphating, and the regenerated Fe2P(0.125)@P(1.0)NC-950 maintained 85% of its primary reduction activity after five reuse cycles. The study clearly demonstrates that Fe2P-decorated porous carbon can be applied as a robust and stable Fe-based material in aqueous bromate reduction.

Abstract
Heteroatom-doped porous carbon materials have investigated to promote the energy density of zinc-ion hybrid capacitors (ZICs). Yet, the quest for high-performance carbon materials or cathodes brings to light the question of which dopants facilitate fast energy storage kinetics and various types of pseudocapacitive reactions. Investigation of carbon materials with precise quantitative dopants as the key variable represents an effective appropriate approach to comprehending the intricate role of dopants in energy storage areas. Here, a straightforward solvothermal strategy is demonstrated for a variety of pristine and iron-incorporated polymer microspheres, used as precursors for durable spherical carbons intended for cathode applications in ZICs. The strategy effectively governs the incorporation of dopants within the carbon materials, whilewhile maintaining consistent morphology, microtexture, and pore structure across different carbon variations. The synergistic effect of various dopants enhance the pseudocapacitance and facilitate the ion storage process. In consequence, the optimal cathode delivers considerable capacity (178.8 mAh g-1 at 0.5 A g-1), good energy density (120.2 Wh kg-1 at 336 W kg-1), and excellent cycling stability (101.5% capacity retention at 35 000 cycles). The demonstration showcases a viable method for crafting carbon materials with precise dopants to accommodate the zinc anode, thus enabling high-capacity and high-energy ZICs.

NANO-MICRO LETTERS 2024; 16:161. [PMID: 38526682 PMCID: PMC10963695 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-024-01372-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/03/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024]
Abstract
With the merits of the high energy density of batteries and power density of supercapacitors, the aqueous Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors emerge as a promising candidate for applications where both rapid energy delivery and moderate energy storage are required. However, the narrow electrochemical window of aqueous electrolytes induces severe side reactions on the Zn metal anode and shortens its lifespan. It also limits the operation voltage and energy density of the Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors. Using 'water in salt' electrolytes can effectively broaden their electrochemical windows, but this is at the expense of high cost, low ionic conductivity, and narrow temperature compatibility, compromising the electrochemical performance of the Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors. Thus, designing a new electrolyte to balance these factors towards high-performance Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors is urgent and necessary. We developed a dilute water/acetonitrile electrolyte (0.5 m Zn(CF3SO3)2 + 1 m LiTFSI-H2O/AN) for Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors, which simultaneously exhibited expanded electrochemical window, decent ionic conductivity, and broad temperature compatibility. In this electrolyte, the hydration shells and hydrogen bonds are significantly modulated by the acetonitrile and TFSI- anions. As a result, a Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitor with such an electrolyte demonstrates a high operating voltage up to 2.2 V and long lifespan beyond 120,000 cycles.

Abstract
Dendrite growth and parasitic reactions of a Zn metal anode in aqueous media hinder the development of up-and-coming Zn-ion batteries. Optimizing the crystal growth after Zn nucleation is promising to enable stable cyclic performance of the anode, but directly regulating specific crystal plane growth for homogenized Zn electrodeposition remains highly challenging. Herein, a perfluoropolymer (Nafion) is introduced into an aqueous electrolyte to activate a thermodynamically ultrastable Zn/electrolyte interface for long-term Zn-ion batteries. The low adsorption energy (-2.09 eV) of Nafion molecules on Zn metal ensures the in situ formation of a Nafion-nanofilm during the first charge process. This ultrathin artificial solid electrolyte interface with zincophilic -SO3- groups guides the directional Zn2+ electrodeposition along the (002) crystal surface even at high current density, yielding a dendrite-free Zn anode. The synergic Zn/electrolyte interphase electrochemistry contributes an average coulombic efficiency of 99.71% after 4500 cycles for Zn‖Cu cells, and Zn‖Zn cells achieve an ultralong lifespan of over 7000 h at 5 mA cm-2. Besides, Zn‖MnO2 cells operate well over 3000 cycles. Even at -40 °C, Zn‖Zn cells achieve stable Zn2+ plating/stripping for 1200 h.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 658:856-864.

Abstract
Understanding the self-stacking interactions in precursors can facilitate the preparation of high-performance carbon materials and promote the commercial application of zinc ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs). Here, a π-conjugated molecule mediated pyrolysis strategy is presented to prepare carbon materials. Taking intermolecular force simulation (reduced density gradient plots) as a guide, the relationship between the self-stacking interactions in π-conjugated molecules and the structural parameters of carbon materials can be extrapolated. The resultant self-doped hierarchical porous carbons (NHPCs) derived from 1, 8, 4, 5-naphthalenetetracarboxdiimide with suitable self-stacking interactions empower the highest specific surface areas (2038 m2/g) and surface opening macropores. The NHPCs-based ZIHCs deliver a high capacity of 220 mAh/g, a high energy density of 149.5 Wh kg-1 and a super-stable cycle lifespan with 93.2 % capacity retention after 200, 000 cycles. The excellent electrochemical performance roots in the superior hierarchical porous structure with surface opening macropores, which guarantees the structural stability of carbon cathodes upon repeated rounds. Meanwhile, the heteroatom doping further relieves the kinetics concern of Zn2+ uptake/removal to enhance O-Zn-N binding particularly at high discharge currents. Besides, the proton-assisted Zn2+ dual-ion storage mechanism plays an essential role in the energy storage process. This work demonstrates a facile synthesis method and advances the fundamental understanding of its dual-ion storage mechanism.

Abstract
Up to now, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with open nanostructures have shown outstanding capabilities in trapping smoke particles compared to the original MOFs. However, only a few MOF-based strategies have been reported to synthesize hierarchical porous cages thus far, which are mainly restricted to environmentally unfriendly wet-chemical liquid methods. Herein, as a proof-of-concept, a gas-steamed metal-organic framework approach was designed to fabricate a series of cheeselike open cages with hierarchical porosity. Briefly, zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) and phytic acid were employed as precursor and etchant, respectively. Abandoning the conventional wet-chemical method, the coordination bond of ZIF-67 was cleaved by acidic steam, forming an open framework with a high specific surface area and a hierarchical porous structure. The universality of this method was also confirmed by the selection of different etchants. Impressively, they also show outstanding fume-toxic adsorption capability and labyrinth effects based on abundant and complex porous channels. At only 5 wt % loading, Co3O4@open ZIF-67 cage-2 (Co3O4@OZC-2) imparted polyurea (PUA) composites with a 21.2% limiting oxygen index, and the peak of heat release rate, total heat release, and total smoke production were reduced by around 37.5, 25.5, and 40.4%, respectively, compared to neat PUA. This work will shed light on the advanced structural design of polymer composites with high fire safety, especially smoke suppression performance, so as to obtain more feasible applications.

Abstract
Zinc ion capacitors (ZICs) have shown potential for breaking the energy density ceiling of traditional supercapacitors (SCs) via appropriate device design. Nevertheless, a significant challenge remains in advancing ZIC positive electrode materials with excellent conductivity, high specific capacitance, and reliable cycle stability. A highly attractive option for carbon-based electrode materials is reduced graphene oxide (RGO) due to its vast specific surface area, prominent porosity, and 3D cross-linked frame. However, the tight stacking of RGO sheets driven by van der Waals forces can restrict active sites, decrease specific capacitance, and elevate electrochemical impedance. To overcome these challenges, 3D defective RGO (DRGO) hydrogels were prepared by a metal Co cocatalytic gasification reaction. This method produced mesoporous defects on the surface of RGO hydrogels via a low-temperature hydrothermal self-assembly strategy. The surface of the layer has a wide and uniform distribution, which can offer abundant redox active sites, rich ion transfer channels, and fast reaction kinetics. In this work, 3D DRGO//Zn exhibited a wide operating window (0-1.8 V), high specific capacitance (189.39 F g-1 at 1 A g-1), outstanding energy density (85.23 W h kg-1 at 960.31 W kg-1; 52.36 W h kg-1 at 17454.87 W kg-1), and persistent cycling life (98.86% initial capacitance retention after 10 000 cycles at 10 A g-1). This study emphasizes the device design of ZIC and promising prospects of using 3D DRGO hydrogel as a feasible positive electrode for ZIC.

Abstract
Compared with Zn2+ storage, non-metallic charge carrier with small hydrated size and light weight shows fast dehydration and diffusion kinetics for Zn-organic batteries. Here we first report NH4 + /H+ co-storage in self-assembled organic superstructures (OSs) by intermolecular interactions of p-benzoquinone (BQ) and 2, 6-diaminoanthraquinone (DQ) polymer through H-bonding and π-π stacking. BQ-DQ OSs exhibit exposed quadruple-active carbonyl motifs and super electron delocalization routes, which are redox-exclusively coupled with high-kinetics NH4 + /H+ but exclude sluggish and rigid Zn2+ ions. A unique 4e- NH4 + /H+ co-coordination mechanism is unravelled, giving BQ-DQ cathode high capacity (299 mAh g-1 at 1 A g-1 ), large-current tolerance (100 A g-1 ) and ultralong life (50,000 cycles). This strategy further boosts the capacity to 358 mAh g-1 by modulating redox-active building units, giving new insights into ultra-fast and stable NH4 + /H+ storage in organic materials for better Zn batteries.

Abstract
Pyridine oximes produced from aldehyde or ketone with hydroxylamine (NH2 OH) have been widely applied in pharmaceutics, enzymatic and sterilization. However, the important raw material NH2 OH exhibits corrosive and unstable properties, leading to substantial energy consumption during storage and transportation. Herein, this work presents a novel method for directly synthesizing highly valuable pyridine oximes using in situ generated NH2 OH from electrocatalytic NO reduction with well-design nanofiber membranes (Al-NFM) derived from NH2 -MIL-53(Al). Particularly, 2-pyridinealdoxime, the precursor of antidote pralidoxime (2-PAM) for nerve agents suffering from scarcity and high cost, was achieved with a Faraday efficiency up to 49.8 % and a yield of 92.1 %, attributing to the high selectivity of NH2 OH production on Al-NFM, further easily reacted with iodomethane to produce 2-PAM. This study proposes a creative approach, having wide universality for synthesizing pyridine and other oximes with a range of functional groups, which not only facilitates the conversion of exhaust gas (NO) and waste water (NO2 - ) into valuable chemicals especially NH2 OH production and in situ utilization through electrochemistry, but also holds significant potential for synthesis of neuro detoxifying drugs to humanity security.

Abstract
Porous carbon is the most promising cathode material for Zn-ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs), but is limited by insufficient active adsorption sites and slow ion diffusion kinetics during charge storage. Herein, a pore construction-pore expansion strategy for synthesizing multi-channel hollow carbon nanofibers (MCHCNF) is proposed, in which the sacrificial template-induced multi-channel structure eliminates the diffusion barrier for enhancing ion diffusion kinetics, and the generated ultrahigh surface area and high-density defective structures effectively increase the quantity of active sites for charge storage. Additionally, a graphene-like shell structure formed on the carbon nanofiber surface facilitates fast electron transport, and the highly matchable pore size of MCHCNF with electrolyte-ions favors the accommodation of charge carriers. These advantages lead to the optimized ZIHCs exhibit high capacity (191.4 mAh g-1 ), high energy (133.1 Wh kg-1 ), along with outstanding cycling stability (93.0% capacity retention over 15000 cycles). Systematic ex situ characterizations reveal that the dual-adsorption of anions and cations synergistically ensures the outstanding electrochemical performance, highlighting the importance of the highly-developed porous structure of MCHCNF. This work not only provides a promising strategy for improving the capacitive capability of porous materials but also sheds light on charge storage mechanisms and rational design for advanced energy storage devices.

Abstract
Tailor-made carbonaceous-based cathodes with zincophilicity and hydrophilicity are highly desirable for Zn-ion storage applications, but it remains a great challenge to achieve both advantages in the synthesis. In this work, a template electrospinning strategy is developed to synthesize nitrogen and phosphorous co-doped hollow porous carbon nanofibers (N, P-HPCNFs), which deliver a high capacity of 230.7 mAh g-1 at 0.2 A g-1 , superior rate capability of 131.0 mAh g-1 at 20 A g-1 , and a maximum energy density of 196.10 Wh kg-1 at the power density of 155.53 W kg-1 . Density functional theory calculations (DFT) reveal that the introduced P dopants regulate the distribution of local charge density of carbon materials and therefore facilitate the adsorption of Zn ions due to the increased electronegativity of pyridinic-N. Ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations indicate that the doped P species induce a series of polar sites and create a hydrophilic microenvironment, which decreases the impedance between the electrode and the electrolyte and therefore accelerates the reaction kinetics. The marriage of ex situ/in situ experimental analyses and theoretical simulations uncovers the origin of the enhanced zincophilicity and hydrophilicity of N, P-HPCNFs for energy storage, which accounts for the faster ion migration and electrochemical processes.

Abstract
Zinc ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZIHSCs) are truly promising as next-generation high-performance energy storage systems because they could offer high energy density like batteries while exhibiting high power output and long cycle life traits of supercapacitors. The key point of constructing a high-performance ZIHSC is to couple the Zn anode with an appropriate cathode material, which has high theoretical capacity, cost-effectiveness, and intrinsic safety features. In this work, we have demonstrated the potentiality of S, N co-doped porous carbon nanocubes (S, N-CNCs) as a cathode material for devising a ZIHSC with excellent energy density and cycle life. The S, N-CNCs are prepared from a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-8 precursor via a simultaneous pyrolyzing-doping strategy in an inert atmosphere. Resultant CNCs are monodisperse with an average size of around 65 nm and porous in nature, with uniform N and S doping throughout the structure. Benefitted from such hierarchical porous architecture and the presence of abundant heteroatoms, the assembled ZIHSC with S, N-CNC as the cathode and Zn-foil as the anode in a ZnSO4 aqueous electrolyte could reach a specific capacity as high as 165.5 mA h g-1 (331 F g-1) at 1 A g-1, which corresponds to a satisfactory energy density of 148.9 W h kg-1 at the power density of 900 W kg-1. The ZIHSC has displayed a good cycle stability with more than 70% capacity retention after 10,000 charge-discharge cycles. Furthermore, to verify the practical feasibility of such a cathode material, an aqueous 3D Zn@Cu//S, N-CNC full-cell device is fabricated, which has demonstrated a satisfactory specific capacity (49.6 mAh g-1 at 0.25 A g-1) and an impressive energy density (42.2 Wh kg-1 with 212.2 W kg-1). Full ZIHSC devices are also found to be efficient in powering light-emitting diodes, further substantiating their feasibility in next-generation energy storage applications.

Abstract
Combining two different metals for the synthesis of a metal-organic framework (MOF) is a smart strategy for the architecture of new porous materials. Herein, a bimetal-organic framework (bimetal-MOFs) based on Fe and Co metals was synthesized. Then, phosphorous acid tags were decorated on bimetal-MOFs via a postmodification method as a new porous acidic functionalized catalyst. This catalyst was used for the synthesis of pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyridine derivatives as suitable drug candidates. The present study provides new insights into the architecture of novel porous heterogeneous catalysts based on a bimetal-organic framework (bimetal-MOFs). The type of final structures of catalyst and pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyridine derivatives were determined using different techniques such as fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), SEM-elemental mapping, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm, Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH), thermogravimetry/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA), 1H NMR, and 13C NMR.

Abstract
Designing zincophilic and stable carbon nanostructures is critical for Zn-ion storage with superior capacitive activity and durability. Here, we report solvent-guided Lewis acid-base self-assembly to customize heterodiatomic carbon nanotubes, triggered by the reaction between iron chloride and α,α'-dichloro-p-xylene. In this strategy, modulating the solvent-precursor interaction through the optimization of solvent formula stimulates differential thermodynamic solubilization, growth kinetics, and self-assembly behaviors of Lewis polymeric chains, thereby accurately tailoring carbon nanoarchitectures to evoke superior Zn-ion storage. Featured with open hollow interiors and porous tubular topologies, the solvent-optimized carbon nanotubes allow low ion-migration barriers to deeply access the built-in zincophilic sites by high-kinetics physical Zn2+/CF3SO3- adsorption and robust chemical Zn2+ redox with pyridine/carbonyl motifs, which maximizes the spatial capacitive charge storage density. Thus, as-designed heterodiatomic carbon nanotube cathodes provide all-round improvement in Zn-ion storage, including a high energy density (140 W h kg-1), a large current activity (100 A g-1), and an exceptional long-term cyclability (100,000 cycles at 50 A g-1). This study provides appealing insights into the solvent-mediated Lewis pair self-assembly design of nanostructured carbons toward advanced Zn-ion energy storage.

Abstract
Emerging aqueous zinc-ion hybrid capacitors (AZICs) are considered a promising energy storage because of their superior electrochemical performance. The pore structure, suitable heteroatom content, and graphitization degree (GD) of carbon-based cathodes significantly influence the electrochemical performance of AZICs. The N, S dual-doped porous graphitic carbon materials (LC-750) with the combined characteristics of high GD (1.11) and large specific surface area (1678.38 m2 g-1) are successfully developed by a facile "killing two birds with one stone" strategy using K3Fe(C2O4)3·3H2O as the activating and graphitizing agent, and waste sponge (WS) and coal tar pitch (CTP) as the heteroatom and carbon resource, respectively. Results show that the LC-750 cathode displays high capacities of 185.3 and 95.2 mAh g-1 at 0.2 and 10 A g-1. Specifically, the assembled LC-750//Zn capacitor can offer a maximal energy density of 119.5 Wh kg-1, a power density of 20.3 kW kg-1, and a capacity retention of 87.8% after 15,000 cycles at 10 A g-1. Density functional theory simulations demonstrate that N and S dual-doping can promote the adsorption kinetics of Zn ions. This design strategy is a feasible and cost-effective method for the preparation of dual heteroatom-doped graphitic carbon electrodes, which enables recycling of WS and CTP into high-valued products.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZHSs) are attracting increased attention as emerging electrochemical energy storage systems. However, the design of high-performance carbon cathodes for ZHSs remains a challenge. Herein, we report the synthesis of heteroatom-rich carbon cathodes based on a biomass precursor of yeast and a hydrothermal pre-carbonization strategy, realizing high-performance ZHSs. The yeast is composed of polysaccharide chains containing abundant O/N heteroatoms, and a hydrothermal pre-carbonization process is conducive to preserving these heteroatoms in the high-specific-surface-area carbon materials obtained by carbonizing-activating the yeast precursor. As a result, the synthesized carbon materials are endowed with high O/N heteroatom contents (exceeding 13.9 at%), and present superior electrochemical performance in ZHSs, including a high specific capacity of 132 mAh/g, a high energy density of 94.4 Wh/kg and outstanding cycling stability with ∼100% capacity retention after 7000 cycles at 5 A/g. Besides, the heteroatom-rich carbon cathodes show a high capacity retention of 85.3% when their mass loading increases from 3.8 to 12.2 mg/cm2, demonstrating promising application for practical ZHSs. Electrochemical analysis reveals that the O/N heteroatoms promote ion chemical adsorption and thus the electrochemical properties of the carbon cathodes. Furthermore, flexible ZHS devices constructed with the heteroatom-rich carbon cathodes and a biodegradable ZnSO4/dough solid-state electrolyte exhibit excellent flexibility (as reflected by almost unchanged capacity under different bending states and 85% capacity retention after 500 bending cycles) as well as good repairability after dehydration under abnormal environments. This study offers new thinking in designing high-performance carbon cathodes and promotes nonflexible/flexible ZHSs moving towards practical applications.

Abstract
With fast (de)coordination kinetics, the smallest and the lightest proton stands out as the most ideal charge carrier for aqueous Zn-organic batteries (ZOBs). Hydrogen-bonding networks with rapid Grotthuss proton conduction is particularly suitable for organic cathodes, yet not reported. We report the supramolecular self-assembly of cyanuric acid and 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine into organic superstructures through in-plane H-bonds and out-of-plane π-π interaction. The supramolecular superstructures exhibit highly stable lock-and-key H-bonding networks with an ultralow activation energy for protonation (0.09 eV vs. 0.25 eV of zincification). Then, high-kinetics H+ coordination is prior to Zn2+ into protophilic C=O sites via a two-step nine-electron reaction. The assembled ZOBs show high-rate capability (135 mAh g-1 at 150 A g-1 ), high energy density (267 Wh kg-1 cathode ) and ultra-long life (50 000 cycles at 10 A g-1 ), becoming the state-of-the-art ZOBs in comprehensive performances.

Abstract
Hollow carbon nanocages (HCNCs) consisting of sp2 carbon shells featured by a hollow interior cavity with defective microchannels (or customized mesopores) across the carbon shells, high specific surface area, and tunable electronic structure, are quilt different from the other nanocarbons such as carbon nanotubes and graphene. These structural and morphological characteristics make HCNCs a new platform for advanced electrochemical energy storage and conversion. This review focuses on the controllable preparation, structural regulation, and modification of HCNCs, as well as their electrochemical functions and applications as energy storage materials and electrocatalytic conversion materials. The metal single atoms-functionalized structures and electrochemical properties of HCNCs are summarized systematically and deeply. The research challenges and trends are also envisaged for deepening and extending the study and application of this hollow carbon material. The development of multifunctional carbon-based composite nanocages provides a new idea and method for improving the energy density, power density, and volume performance of electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices.

Abstract
The regulation of coordination configurations of single-atom sites is highly desirable to boost the catalytic performances of SA catalysts. Here, we demonstrate a versatile complexation-deposition strategy for the synthesis of 13 kinds of dual-metal SA site pairs with uniform and exclusive coordination configurations. The preparation is specifically exemplified by the fabrication of Cu and Co single-atom pairs with the co-existence of N and P heteroatoms through etching and pyrolysis of a pre-synthesized metal-organic framework template. Systematic characterizations reveal the uniform and exclusive coordinative configuration of Cu and Co SA sites in CuN4/CoN3P1 and CuN4/CoN2P2, over which the electrons are unsymmetrically distributed. Impressively, the CuN4/CoN2P2 site pairs exhibit significantly enhanced catalytic activity and selectivity in the synthesis of a variety of natural flavonoids in comparison with the CuN4/CoN3P1 and CuN4/CoN4 counterparts. Theoretical calculation results suggest that the unsymmetrical electron distribution over the CuN4/CoN2P2 sites could facilitate the adsorption and disassociation of oxygen molecules via reducing the energy barriers of the generation of the key intermediates and thus kinetically accelerate the oxidative-coupling reaction process.

Abstract
Transition metal-based single-atom catalysts (TM-SACs) are promising alternatives to Au- and Ag-based electrocatalysts for CO production through CO2 reduction reaction. However, developing TM-SACs with high activity and selectivity at low overpotentials is challenging. Herein, a novel Fe-based SAC with Si doping (Fe-N-C-Si) was prepared, which shows a record-high electrocatalytic performance toward the CO2-to-CO conversion with exceptional current density (>350.0 mA cm-2) and ~100% Faradaic efficiency (FE) at the overpotential of <400 mV, far superior to the reported Fe-based SACs. Further assembling Fe-N-C-Si as the cathode in a rechargeable Zn-CO2 battery delivers an outstanding performance with a maximal power density of 2.44 mW cm-2 at an output voltage of 0.30 V, as well as high cycling stability and FE (>90%) for CO production. Experimental combined with theoretical analysis unraveled that the nearby Si dopants in the form of Si-C/N bonds modulate the electronic structure of the atomic Fe sites in Fe-N-C-Si to markedly accelerate the key pathway involving *CO intermediate desorption, inhibiting the poisoning of the Fe sites under high CO coverage and thus boosting the CO2RR performance. This work provides an efficient strategy to tune the adsorption/desorption behaviors of intermediates on single-atom sites to improve their electrocatalytic performance.

Abstract
Metal-ion hybrid capacitors (MIHCs) hold particular promise for next-generation energy storage technologies, which bridge the gap between the high energy density of conventional batteries and the high power density and long lifespan of supercapacitors (SCs). However, the achieved electrochemical performance of available MIHCs is still far from practical requirements. This is primarily attributed to the mismatch in capacity and reaction kinetics between the cathode and anode. In this regard, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their derivatives offer great opportunities for high-performance MIHCs due to their high specific surface area, high porosity, topological diversity, and designable functional sites. In this review, instead of simply enumerating, we critically summarize the recent progress of MOFs and their derivatives in MIHCs (Li, Na, K, and Zn), while emphasizing the relationship between the structure/composition and electrochemical performance. In addition, existing issues and some representative design strategies are highlighted to inspire breaking through existing limitations. Finally, a brief conclusion and outlook are presented, along with current challenges and future opportunities for MOFs and their derivatives in MIHCs.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) derivatives promise great potential in energy storage and conversion because of their excellent tunability in both the active metal sites, organic links, and the overall structures down to atomic and up to mesoscale. Nevertheless, a big challenge is to precisely control and thoroughly understand the actual MOF-to-derivative conversion process to realize the template-free synthesis of the MOF-derived ordered mesoporous materials. Here, a class of ordered mesoporous N-doped carbon nanoflakes is presented with slit-shaped pores synthesized by one-step pyrolysis of Zn1 Cux -MOF, where the Cu doping plays a critically important direction-inducing function on the dissociation of organic ligands during the pyrolysis. Benefiting from the uniquely ordered mesoporous structure and large specific surface area (910 m2 g-1 ), the Zn1 Cux -MOF-derived ordered mesoporous carbon nanoflakes present outstanding electrochemical storage performance for multivalent metal ions, such as Mg2+ , Ca2+ , Co2+ , Ni2+ , Al3+ , and Zn2+ , demonstrating the universal nature of the slit-shaped pores in enabling the multivalent metal ions for energy storage. Moreover, the assembled flexible Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitor (ZHSC) delivers a high specific capacity of 134 mAh g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 , excellent cycling and mechanical stability, showing great application potential in the new generation energy storage devices.

Abstract
Zinc-ion capacitors (ZICs) are promising technology for large-scale energy storage by integrating the attributes of supercapacitors and zinc-ion batteries. Unfortunately, the insufficient Zn2+ -storage active sites of carbonaceous cathode materials and the mismatch of pore sizes with charge carriers lead to unsatisfactory Zn2+ storage capability. Herein, new insights for boosting Zn2+ storage capability of activated nitrogen-doped hierarchical porous carbon materials (ANHPC-x) are reported by effectively eliminating the micropore confinement effect and synchronously elevating the utilization of active sites. Therefore, the best-performed ANHPC-2 delivers impressive electrochemical properties for ZICs in terms of excellent capacity (199.1 mAh g-1 ), energy density (155.2 Wh kg-1 ), and durability (65 000 cycles). Systematic ex situ characterizations together with in situ electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance and Raman spectra measurements reveal that the remarkable electrochemical performance is assigned to the synergism of the Zn2+ , H+ , and SO4 2- co-adsorption mechanism and reversible chemical adsorption. Furthermore, the ANHPC-2-based quasi-solid-state ZIC demonstrates excellent electrochemical capability with an ultralong lifespan of up to 100 000 cycles. This work not only provides a promising strategy to improve the Zn2+ storage capability of carbonaceous materials but also sheds lights on charge-storage mechanism and advanced electrode materials' design for ZICs toward practical applications.

Abstract
Highly active and stable cathodes are critical for aqueous Zn-organic batteries with high capacity, fast redox kinetics, and long life. We herein report para-, meta-, and ortho-dinitrobenzene (p-, m-, and o-DB) containing two successive two-electron processes, as cathode materials to boost the battery performance. Theoretical and experimental studies reveal that nitro constitutional isomerism is key to zincophilic activity and redox kinetics. p-DB hosted in carbon nanoflower harvests a high capacity of 402 mAh g-1 and a superior stability up to 25 000 cycles at 5 A g-1 , giving a Zn-organic battery with a high energy density of 230 Wh kg-1 . An anionic co-insertion charge storage mechanism is proposed, entailing a two-step (de)coordination of Zn(CF3 SO3 )+ with nitro oxygen. Besides, dinitrobenzene can be electrochemically optimized by side group regulation via implanting electron-withdrawing motifs. This work opens a new window to design multielectron nitroaromatics for Zn-organic batteries.

Abstract
Rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) suffer from low capacity and poor cyclability of cathode materials, which is due to the sluggish Mg2+ diffusion kinetics and large lattice strain. Here, a layer-interweaving mechanism in lamellar cathode to simultaneously facilitate Mg2+ diffusion and release Mg2+ -insertion strain is reported. In the Cu3 V2 O7 (OH)2 ·2H2 O (CVOH) cathode, Mg2+ diffusion highways are generated by the vertical interweaving of CVOH layers and V6 O13 layers that nucleate in CVOH during discharging, which are switchable by Mg2+ insertion/extraction. These highways enhance the Mg2+ diffusion coefficient by three orders of magnitude and release 50% Mg2+ -insertion strain. This enables CVOH to exhibit a high capacity of 262 mAh g-1 at high current density of 250 mA g-1 in aqua, and extremely low capacity loss of 0.0004% per cycle in the activated carbon//CVOH cell. This work inspires designing the magnesiation phase transformation of electrodes to resolve both kinetic and strain issues for high-performance RMBs.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZHSCs) represent one of the current research subjects because of their flame retardancy, ease of manufacturing, and exceptional roundtrip efficiency. With the evolution into real useful energy storage cells, the bottleneck factors of the corrosion and dendrite growth problems must be properly resolved for largely boosting their cycling life and energy efficiency. Herein, a natural polysaccharide strengthened hydrogel electrolyte (denoted as PAAm/agar/Zn(CF3SO3)2) was engineered by designing an asymmetric dual network of covalently cross-linked polyacrylamide (denoted as PAAm) and physically cross-linked loose polysaccharide (e.g., agar) followed by intense uptake of Zn(CF3SO3)2 aqueous electrolyte. In this polymeric matrix, the PAAm chains are responsible for constructing the soft domains to immobilize the water molecules, and the agar component boosts the mechanical performance (by using its inherent reversible sacrificial bonds) and favors the electrolyte ion transport. Due to these reasons, the as-designed hydrogel electrolyte effectively inhibits the zinc dendrite growth, realizes the uniform Zn deposition, and affords a satisfactory ionic conductivity of 1.55 S m-1, excellent tensile strength (78.9 kPa at 507.7% stretchable), and high compression strength (118.0 kPa at 60.0% strain). Additionally, a biopolymer-derived N-doped carbon microsphere cathode material with a highly interconnected porous carbonaceous network (denoted as NC) was also synthesized, which delivers a high capacity of 92.8 mAh g-1, along with superb rate capability and long duration cycling lifespan (95.4% retention for 10000 cycles) in the aqueous Zn//NC ZHSC. More notably, with integrated merits of the PAAm/agar/Zn(CF3SO3)2 hydrogel electrolyte and NC, the as-built quasi-solid-state ZHSC achieves a high specific capacity of 73.4 mAh g-1 and superior energy density of 61.3 Wh kg-1 together with excellent cycling stability for 10000 cycles. This work demonstrated favorable practicability in the structural design of the hydrogel electrolytes and electrode materials for advanced ZHSC applications.

Abstract
Combining the chemistry of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) can bring new opportunities for the design of advanced materials with enhanced tunability and functionality. Herein, we constructed two COFs based on Ni-bis(dithiolene) units and imine bonds, representing a bridge between traditional MOFs and COFs. The Ni-bis(dithiolene)tetrabenzaldehyde as the 4-connected linker was initially synthesized, which was further linked by 4-connected tetra(aminophenyl)pyrene (TAP) or 3-connected tris(aminophenyl)amine (TAA) linkers into two COFs, namely, Ni-TAP and Ni-TAA. Ni-TAP shows a two-dimensional sql network, while TAA is a twofold interpenetrated framework with an ffc topology. They both exhibit a high Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area (324 and 689 m2 g-1 for Ni-TAP and Ni-TAA, respectively), a fairly good conductivity (1.57 × 10-6 and 9.75 × 10-5 S m-1 for Ni-TAP and Ni-TAA, respectively), and high chemical stability (a stable pH window of 1-14 for Ni-TAA). When applied in lithium metal batteries as an intermediate layer for guiding the uniform Li electrodeposition, Ni-TAP and Ni-TAA displayed impressive lithiophilicity and high Li-ion conductivity, enabling the achievement of smooth and dense Li deposition with a clear columnar morphology and stable Li plating/stripping behaviors with high Li utilization, which is anticipated to pave the way to upgrade Li metal anodes for application in high-energy-density battery systems.

[PMID: 35426577 PMCID: PMC9012804 DOI: 10.1007/s40820-022-00839-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
Carbon nanofibers films are typical flexible electrode in the field of energy storage, but their application in Zinc-ion hybrid capacitors (ZIHCs) is limited by the low energy density due to the lack of active adsorption sites. In this work, an in-situ exfoliation strategy is reported to modulate the chemisorption sites of carbon nanofibers by high pyridine/pyrrole nitrogen doping and carbonyl functionalization. The experimental results and theoretical calculations indicate that the highly electronegative pyridine/pyrrole nitrogen dopants can not only greatly reduce the binding energy between carbonyl group and Zn2+ by inducing charge delocalization of the carbonyl group, but also promote the adsorption of Zn2+ by bonding with the carbonyl group to form N-Zn-O bond. Benefit from the multiple highly active chemisorption sites generated by the synergy between carbonyl groups and pyridine/pyrrole nitrogen atoms, the resulting carbon nanofibers film cathode displays a high energy density, an ultralong-term lifespan, and excellent capacity reservation under commercial mass loading (14.45 mg cm‒2). Particularly, the cathodes can also operate stably in flexible or quasi-solid devices, indicating its application potential in flexible electronic products. This work established a universal method to solve the bottleneck problem of insufficient active adsorption sites of carbon-based ZIHCs.Imoproved should be changed into Improved.

Abstract
Fe-N-C electrocatalysts have been demonstrated to be the most promising substitutes for benchmark Pt/C catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Herein, we report that N-doped carbon materials with trace amounts of iron (0-0.08 wt. %) show excellent ORR activity and durability comparable and even superior to those of Pt/C in both alkaline and acidic media without significant contribution by the metal sites. Such an N-doped carbon (denoted as N-HPCs) features a hollow and hierarchically porous architecture, and more importantly, a noncovalently bonded N-deficient/N-rich heterostructure providing the active sites for oxygen adsorption and activation owing to the efficient electron transfer between the layers. The primary Zn-air battery using N-HPCs as the cathode delivers a much higher power density of 158 mW cm-2 , and the maximum power density in the H2 -O2 fuel cell reaches 486 mW cm-2 , which is comparable to and even better than those using conventional Fe-N-C catalysts at cathodes.

Abstract
Onion-like carbon (OLC) is one kind of a quasi-nanosphere with a concentric graphite shell structure and abundant mesopores, which is appropriate for a high rate of charging/discharging and long-lifespan cycling. However, the moderate specific surface area seriously impeded its capacitance performance in comparison with activated carbon and porous carbon. Herein, we have unlocked the Zn ion storage performance of OLC material through introducing N and P dopants. Benefitting from the fabricated N,P-OLC with a fully accessible external surface area for ion adsorption, high proportion of mesopores for fast ion migration, and synergistic effect of N and P co-doping in a carbon matrix favoring chemical adsorption of Zn2+ ions, when applied as a cathode electrode for Zn ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZHSCs), such a device can deliver a high specific capacitance of 420.3 F g-1 (184.5 mA h g-1) at 0.5 A g-1, an outstanding capacitance retention capability of 262.7 F g-1 even at 20 A g-1 (∼63% capacitance retention), a high energy density of 149.5 W h kg-1, and a high power density of 26.7 kW kg-1. Furthermore, this N,P-OLC material can in situ tightly integrate with a carbon cloth (CC) or carbon fiber to construct a freestanding and flexible electrode. The fabricated Zn//N,P-OLC@CC device achieved a high energy density of 85.3 mW h cm-2, a high power density of 24.3 W cm-2, and a long-term cycling lifespan (77.8% after 50 000 cycles). At last, the assembled quasi-solid-state fiber-shaped ZHSCs also present excellent flexibility and practicality. Our study exhibits that OLC can act as a promising carbon electrode for ZHSCs.

Abstract
As a new generation of Zn-ion storage systems, Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZHSCs) garner tremendous interests recently from researchers due to the perfect integration of batteries and supercapacitors. ZHSCs have excellent integration of high energy density and power density, which seamlessly bridges the gap between batteries and supercapacitors, becoming one of the most viable future options for large-scale equipment and portable electronic devices. However, the currently reported two configurations of ZHSCs and corresponding energy storage mechanisms still lack systematic analyses. Herein, this review will be prudently organized from the perspectives of design strategies, electrode configurations, energy storage mechanisms, recent advances in electrode materials, electrolyte behaviors and further applications (micro or flexible devices) of ZHSCs. The synthesis processes and electrochemical properties of well-designed Zn anodes, capacitor-type electrodes and novel Zn-ion battery-type cathodes are comprehensively discussed. Finally, a brief summary and outlook for the further development of ZHSCs are presented as well. This review will provide timely access for researchers to the recent works regarding ZHSCs.

Abstract
Designing ingenious and stable carbon nanostructures is critical but still challenging for use in energy storage devices with superior electrochemistry kinetics, durable capacitive activity, and high rate survivability. To pursue the objective, a simple self-assembly strategy is developed to access carbon superstructures built of nanoparticle embedded plates. The carbon precursors, 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine and 2,6-diaminoanthraquinone can form porous organic polymer with "protic salt"-type rigid skeleton linked by -NH2 + Cl- - "rivets", which provides the cornerstone for hydrogen-bonding-guided self-assembly of the organic backbone to superstructures by π-π plane stacking. The ameliorative charge density distribution and decreased adsorption energy in as-fabricated carbon superstructures allow the high accessibility of the build-in protophilic sites and efficient ion diffusion with a low energy barrier. Such superstructures thus deliver ultra-stable charge storage and fast proton-coupled kinetics at the structural-chemical defects, contributing to unprecedented lifespan (1 000 000 cycles), high-rate capability (100 A g-1 ) for carbon-based supercapacitors, and an ultrahigh energy density (128 Wh kg-1 ) for Zn-ion hybrid supercapacitors. The self-assembled carbon superstructures significantly improve the all-round electrochemical performances, and hold great promise for efficient energy storage.
