[PMID: 39251002 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.135462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 09/06/2024] [Indexed: 09/11/2024]
Abstract
Due to excellent flexibility and dispersibility, 2D graphene oxide (GO) is regarded as one of the prospective materials for preparing self-supporting electrode material. Nevertheless, the self-stacking characteristic of GO significantly restricts the ion transmission and accessibility in GO-based electrodes, especially in the direction perpendicular to the electrode surface. Herein, a novel composite film was fabricated from GO and 3D porous carbon (PC) through vacuum filtration combined with thermal reduction strategy. The combination of GO and PC not only avoids the self-stacking of GO, but also exposes more active sites for ions in the inner. A massive released nitrogen and oxygen-containing gases during the thermal reduction endows the reduced graphene oxide (RGO) with abundant porous and CC, which contributes to the energy storage in the direction perpendicular to the electrode surface. Besides, the high specific surface area of the prepared composite film is favorable for the storage and release of charge on the electrode surface. Benefiting from the above characteristics, the electrode assembled by the as-prepared film exhibits ultrahigh areal/volumetric specific capacitance in supercapacitor and ZIHCs (Zinc ion hybrid capacitors). This work provides a promising approach for the development of advanced self-supported electrode materials with desirable electrochemical properties.

Abstract
Conductive gels have greatly facilitated the development of flexible energy storage devices, including supercapacitors, batteries, and triboelectric nanogenerators. However, it is challenging for gel electrolytes to tackle the trade-off issues between mechanical properties and conductivity. Herein, a strategy of all inorganic salt-driven supramolecular networks is presented to construct gel electrolytes with high conductivity and reliable mechanical performance for flexible supercapacitors. The salt gel is successfully fabricated by combining a salt supramolecular network constructed by NH4Mo7O24·4H2O and FeCl3·6H2O and a polymer network of poly(vinyl alcohol). The inorganic salt supramolecular network serves as a rigid self-supporting framework in the hydrogel system for improving the mechanical properties and providing abundant active sites for accelerating ion transport. Furthermore, the salt gel-enabled supercapacitors are equipped and exhibit a high specific capacitance (199.4 mF cm-2) and excellent energy density (27.69 μWh cm-2). Moreover, the flexible supercapacitors not only present remarkable cyclic stability after 3000 charging/discharging cycles but also exhibit good electrochemical stability even under severe deformation conditions. The strategy of salt-gel-driven flexible supercapacitors would provide fresh thinking for the development of advanced flexible energy storage fields.

Abstract
Flexible solid-state supercapacitors (SCs) with hydrogel as an electrolyte and separator combine the advantages of wearability and energy storage and exhibit a broad application prospect in wearable energy textiles. However, irreversible electrolyte damage and unstable electrode-electrolyte interfaces during mechanical deformations remain bottlenecks in realizing truly wearable applications. Herein, poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)-Fe hydrogels were prepared through a simple thermal polymerization strategy. The dynamic reversible metal coordination bonds between Fe3+ and carboxylic acids confers the hydrogels with excellent self-healing properties. As expected, the prepared hydrogels exhibited superior mechanical strength (tensile stress of 45.80 kPa), ionic conductivity (0.076 S cm-1), and self-healing properties. Subsequently, the SCs were constructed using composite hydrogel electrodes (MnO2@CC embedded in the PAA-Fe hydrogels) as symmetrical electrodes (marked as MSCs). The reversible metal coordination bonds between composite hydrogel electrodes formed an ultrastable electrode/electrolyte interface in the all-in-one MSCs, thus revealing excellent mechanical durability. The all-in-one MSCs delivered a remarkable specific capacitance (30.98 F g-1 at 0.2 A g-1), excellent cyclic stability (87.24% after 5000 cycles), outstanding mechanical deformation stability, and impressive electrochemical output stability after self-healing (capacitance retention of 85.34% after five cycles of cutting/self-healing). It is noteworthy that the all-in-one MSCs employed NaCl as an electrolyte, which can be obtained from human sweat. As a proof of the self-charged concept, the all-in-one MSCs can be reused in sweat, whose capacitance was maintained at 90.05% of the initial state after three repetitions. This work is expected to shine light into the design of all-in-one and fabric-based SCs and the development of wearable energy textiles.

Abstract
Binary layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are an emerging class of materials for supercapacitors owing to their tunable topological structure and excellent theoretical energy storage capacity. However, aggregation and restacking cause a decrease in the interlayer distance of LDHs, resulting in a considerable drop in real specific capacitance. To address this, large-sized anions are intercalated into the interlayer space. Herein, we constructed 3D top-tangled NiCo-LDH nanobranches in situ on a biomass micro-sized carbon plate (CP). By varying the amount of benzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid (BDC), we prepared a BDC-intercalated CP/NiCo-LDH composite material with adjustable interlayer spacing. Remarkably, the CP/NiCo-LDH-BDC(0.03) composite exhibited excellent electrochemical properties (1530 F g-1/212.5 mAh/g at 1 A/g). It retained 88.36 % capacity after 5000 charge-discharge cycles. The constructed CP/NiCo-LDH-BDC(0.03)//CP asymmetric supercapacitor showed excellent gravimetric capacitance (123 F g-1/54.7 mAh/g at 1 A/g) and energy density (43.7 Wh kg-1 at 800 W kg-1). Furthermore, two asymmetric capacitors connected in series powered a small lightbulb for 2 min, even in a bent state. These findings show that the fabricated CP and CP/NiCo-LDH-BDC(0.03) electrode materials can be applied in flexible and wearable energy storage systems.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2401635.

Abstract
The low mechanical reliability and integration failure are key challenges hindering the commercialization of geometrically flexible batteries. This work proposes that the failure of directly integrating flexible batteries using traditional rigid adhesives is primarily due to the mismatch between the generated stress at the adhesive/substrate interface, and the maximum allowable stress. Accordingly, a stress redistribution adhesive layer (SRAL) strategy is conceived by using elastic adhesive to redistribute the generated stress. The function mechanism of the SRAL strategy is confirmed by theoretical finite element analysis. Experimentally, a polyurethane (PU) type elastic adhesive (with maximum strain of 1425%) is synthesized and used as the SRAL to integrate rigid cells on different flexible substrates to fabricate directly integrated flexible battery with robust output under various harsh environments, such as stretching, twisting, and even bending in water. The SRAL strategy is expected to be generally applicable in various flexible devices that involve the integration of rigid components onto flexible substrates.

Abstract
With the rapid development of micro/nano machining, there is an elevated demand for high-performance microdevices with high reliability and low cost. Due to their outstanding electrochemical, optical, electrical, and mechanical performance, carbon materials are extensively utilized in constructing microdevices for energy storage, sensing, and optoelectronics. Carbon micro/nano machining is fundamental in carbon-based intelligent microelectronics, multifunctional integrated microsystems, high-reliability portable/wearable consumer electronics, and portable medical diagnostic systems. Despite numerous reviews on carbon materials, a comprehensive overview is lacking that systematically encapsulates the development of high-performance microdevices based on carbon micro/nano structures, from structural design to manufacturing strategies and specific applications. This review focuses on the latest progress in carbon micro/nano machining toward miniaturized device, including structural engineering, large-scale fabrication, and performance optimization. Especially, the review targets an in-depth evaluation of carbon-based micro energy storage devices, microsensors, microactuators, miniaturized photoresponsive and electromagnetic interference shielding devices. Moreover, it highlights the challenges and opportunities in the large-scale manufacturing of carbon-based microdevices, aiming to spark further exciting research directions and application prospectives.

Abstract
The rapid evolution of flexible optoelectronic devices in consumer markets, such as solar cells, photonic skins, displays, lighting, supercapacitors, and smart windows, has spurred global innovation in the design and development of Stretchable Transparent Conducting Electrode (STCE) materials. These materials, which combine the flexibility of organic materials with the functionality of optoelectronic components, have drawn a lot of attention because of their potential uses in a variety of disciplines, such as medical equipment, wearable electronics, and soft robotics. Recent advancements in material science and device design have significantly improving performance, durability, and functionality of these stretchable organic optoelectronic devices. Furthermore, flexible conducting transparent electrodes play an essential role in a wide range of flexible and transparent electronics, including touch screens, displays, and solar cells. Traditional materials like indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes, while effective, and constrained by their fragility and high cost. Recent innovations in alternative materials, such as metal mesh, nanowires, conducting polymers and graphene have ushered in a new era of affordable, flexible, and transparent conductive electrodes. Materials like graphene, metal nanowires, metallic grids, metal meshes, and dielectric-metal-dielectric electrodes are explored as potential substitutes for fragile ITO electrodes, thanks to their excellent combination of mechanical flexibility and electrical conductivity. This abstract delves into the opportunities and challenges in the development of flexible and transparent organic optoelectronic devices and flexible conducting transparent electrodes. In this review, we explain the technological advancements of transparent and stretchable electrodes, as well as their applications in organic optoelectronic devices such as organic and perovskite solar cells, OLED, heaters, and supercapacitors. We will specifically examine the basic characteristics, optoelectronic properties, and manufacturing procedures of transparent conducting electrodes. We also discuss the key criteria for evaluating proposals for new research lines in this burgeoning sector.

Abstract
Doping of metal ions shows promising potential in optimizing and modulating the electrical conductivity of layered double hydroxides (LDHs). However, there is still much room for improvement in common metal ions and conventional doping methods. In contrast to previous methodologies, a hollow triangular nanoflower structure of CoFeV-LDHs is devised, which is enriched with a greater number of oxygen vacancies. This resulted in a significant enhancement in the conductivity of the LDHs, leading to an increase in energy density following the appropriate doping of V. To investigate the impact of V-doping on the energy density of the LDHs, in situ XPS and in situ X-ray spectroscopy is employed. Regarding electrochemical performance, the CoFeV-LDHs/NF electrode with optimal doping ratio exhibited a specific capacitance of 881 F g-1 at a current density of 1 A g-1. The capacitance remained at 90.53% after 3000 cycles. In addition, the constructed battery-type supercapacitor CoFeV-LDHs/NF-2//AC exhibited an impressive energy density of 124.7 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 850 W kg-1 and capacitance remained almost unchanged at 95.2% after 3000 cycles. All the above demonstrates the great potential of V-doped LDHs and brings a new way for the subsequent research of LDHs.

Abstract
Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) materials hold significant value in various fields, including information storage, secure communication, three-dimensional displays, biological detection, and optoelectronic devices. Using the Langmuir-Schaeffer (LS) assembly technique, we successfully construct a series of large-area flexible optical ultrathin films. Impressively, the inorganic assembled ultrathin films exhibit excellent CPL optical activity covering the visible to near-infrared (NIR) region, with the luminescence asymmetry factor glum ranging from 0.59 to 0.72. Moreover, such ultrathin films also display outstanding mechanical flexibility, the optical activity of which even after 240 bending cycles shows almost no difference compared to the unbent samples. Owing to the ultra-broadband optical activity and ultra-stable optical activity of such full-inorganic assembled materials on flexible substrates, coupled with their excellent processability and outstanding mechanical flexibility, we anticipate they will find use in many fields such as communication technology and flexible optoelectronics.

Abstract
Exploiting pseudocapacitance in rationally engineered nanomaterials offers greater energy storage capacities at faster rates. The present research reports a high-performance Molybdenum Oxynitride (MoON) nanostructured material deposited directly over stainless-steel mesh (SSM) via reactive magnetron sputtering technique for flexible symmetric supercapacitor (FSSC) application. The MoON/SSM flexible electrode manifests remarkable Na+-ion pseudocapacitive kinetics, delivering exceptional ≈881.83 F g-1 capacitance, thanks to the synergistically coupled interfaces and junctions between nanostructures of Mo2N, MoO2, and MoO3 co-existing phases, resulting in enhanced specific surface area, increased electroactive sites, improved ionic and electronic conductivity. Employing 3D Bode plots, b-value, and Dunn's analysis, a comprehensive insight into the charge-storage mechanism has been presented, revealing the superiority of surface-controlled capacitive and pseudocapacitive kinetics. Utilizing PVA-Na2SO4 gel electrolyte, the assembled all-solid-state FSSC (MoON/SSM||MoON/SSM) exhibits impressive cell capacitance of 30.7 mF cm-2 (438.59 F g-1) at 0.125 mA cm-2. Moreover, the FSSC device outputs a superior energy density of 4.26 µWh cm-2 (60.92 Wh kg-1) and high power density of 2.5 mW cm-2 (35.71 kW kg-1). The device manifests remarkable flexibility and excellent electrochemical cyclability of ≈91.94% over 10,000 continuous charge-discharge cycles. These intriguing pseudocapacitive performances combined with lightweight, cost-effective, industry-feasible, and environmentally sustainable attributes make the present MoON-based FSSC a potential candidate for energy-storage applications in flexible electronics.

Abstract
Pseudocapacitive kinetics in rationally engineered nanostructures can deliver higher energy and power densities simultaneously. The present report reveals a high-performance all-solid-state flexible symmetric supercapacitor (FSSC) based on MoS2-Mo2N nanowires deposited directly on stainless steel mesh (MoS2-Mo2N/SSM) employing DC reactive magnetron co-sputtering technology. The abundance of synergistically coupled interfaces and junctions between MoS2 nanosheets and Mo2N nanostructures across the nanocomposite results in greater porosity, increased ionic conductivity, and superior electrical conductivity. Consequently, the FSSC device utilizing poly(vinyl alcohol)-sodium sulfate (PVA-Na2SO4) hydrogel electrolyte renders an outstanding cell capacitance of 252.09 F·g-1 (44.12 mF·cm-2) at 0.25 mA·cm-2 and high rate performance within a wide 1.3 V window. Dunn's and b-value analysis reveals significant energy storage by surface-controlled capacitive and pseudocapacitive mechanisms. Remarkably, the symmetric device boosts tremendous energy density ∼10.36 μWh·cm-2 (59.17 Wh·kg-1), superb power density ∼6.5 mW·cm-2 (37.14 kW·kg-1), ultrastable long cyclability (∼93.7% after 10,000 galvanostatic charge-discharge cycles), and impressive mechanical flexibility at 60°, 90°, and 120° bending angles.
