[PMID: 38698936 PMCID: PMC11063336 DOI: 10.3389/fchem.2024.1357127] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Although cobalt oxides show great promise as supercapacitor electrode materials, their slow kinetics and low conductivity make them unsuitable for widespread application. We developed Ni and Cu-doped Co3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) via a simple chemical co-precipitation method without the aid of a surfactant. The samples were analyzed for their composition, function group, band gap, structure/morphology, thermal property, surface area and electrochemical property using X-ray diffraction (XRD), ICP-OES, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and/or Differential thermal analysis (DTA), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), Cyclic voltammetry (CV), respectively. Notably, for the prepared sample, the addition of Cu to Co3O4 NPs results in a 11.5-fold increase in specific surface area (573.78 m2 g-1) and a decrease in charge transfer resistance. As a result, the Ni doped Co3O4 electrode exhibits a high specific capacitance of 749 F g-1, 1.75 times greater than the pristine Co3O4 electrode's 426 F g-1. The electrode's enhanced surface area and electronic conductivity are credited with the significant improvement in electrochemical performance. The produced Ni doped Co3O4 electrode has the potential to be employed in supercapacitor systems, as the obtained findings amply demonstrated.

Abstract
Transition metal nitrides (TMNs) are promising electrode materials for use in high-performance electrochemical energy storage devices due to their unique properties, which include a high conductivity, pseudocapacitance, and energy density. However, structural instability during electrochemical reactions has limited their practical deployment for energy storage devices. In this context, the present study fabricated a CoOx @NiMoN/Ti3 C2 Tx electrode via in situ growth on Ni foam using hydrothermal treatment with post-nitrogenization. The effect of atomic layer deposition (ALD) of CoOx on the TMN/Ti3 C2 Tx interface and the consequent electrochemical charge storage mechanisms are investigated in detail. The proposed CoOx @NiMoN/Ti3 C2 Tx electrode delivers an impressive specific capacity in a 2 m potassium hydroxide (KOH) electrolyte and is then employed in both a hybrid solid-state supercapacitor (HSSC) with reduced graphene oxide and a symmetric SC in a 2 m KOH + polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gel electrolyte. Outstanding charge storage and high capacity retention during cyclic testing are observed for both energy storage devices. The exceptional electrochemical performance of the fabricated electrode is a result of its high conductivity and high number of active sites. Here a feasible new strategy is demonstrated for the fabrication of stable energy storage devices with a high energy density using TMNs and MXenes.

J Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 652:155-163.

Abstract
It is an appealing avenue for electrosyntheis of high-valued chemicals at both anode and cathode by coupling 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) oxidation and nitrate reduction reactions simultaneously, while the development such bifunctional electrocatalysts is still in its infancy with dissatisfied selectivity and low yield rate. Here, we first report that Zn-doped Co3O4 nanowires array can be served as an efficient and robust dual-functional catalyst for HMF oxidation and nitrate reduction at ambient conditions. Specifically, the catalyst shows a faradaic efficiency of 91 % and a yield rate of 241.2 μmol h-1 cm-2 for 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid formation together with a high conversion of nearly 100 % at a potential of 1.40 V. It also displays good cycling stability. Besides, the catalyst is capable of catalyzing the reduction of nitrate to NH3, giving a maximal faradaic efficiency of 92 % and a peak NH3 yield rate of 4.65 mg h-1 cm-2 at a potential of -0.70 V. These results surpass those obtained using pristine Co3O4 and are comparable to those of state-of-the-art electrocatalysts. Moreover, the catalyst is further employed as the cathode catalyst to assemble a Zn-nitrate battery, giving a peak power density of 5.24 mW cm-2 and a high yield rate of 0.72 mg h-1 cm-2. Theoretical simulations further reveal that Zn-doping favors the adsorption and dissociation of nitrate and HMF species and reduces the energy barrier as well. Our work demonstrates the potential interest of Co3O4-based materials for the highly selective production of valuable feedstocks via ambient electrolysis.

Abstract
Supercapacitors (SCs) have been the subject of considerable interest because of their distinct advantages. The performance of SCs is directly affected by the electrode materials. Metal oxides derived from Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) are often used as electrode materials for SCs. Herein, we developed a multi-step strategy to fabricate ternary hollow metal oxide (CuO/NiO/Co3O4) heterostructures. The core-shell structured PBA (NiHCC@CuHCC) with Ni-based PBA (NiHCC) as the core and Cu-based PBA (CuHCC) as the shell was prepared by a crystal seed method. The ternary metal oxide (CuO/NiO/Co3O4) with a hollow structure was obtained by calcinating NiHCC@CuHCC. The prepared CuO/NiO/Co3O4 demonstrates an excellent specific capacitance of 262.5 F g-1 at 1 A g-1, which is 27.4% and 16.2% higher than those of CuO/Co3O4 and NiO/Co3O4, respectively. In addition, the material showed outstanding cycling stability with a capacitance retention of 107.9% after 3000 cycles. The two-electrode system constructed with CuO/NiO/Co3O4 and nitrogen-doped graphene hydrogel (NDGH) demonstrates a stable and high energy density of 27.1 W h kg-1 at a power density of 1037.5 W kg-1. The capacitance retention rate was 100.7% after 4000 cycles. The reason for the excellent electrochemical properties could be the synergistic effect of the introduced heterojunction of CuO/NiO, the hollow structure, and various metal oxides. This strategy can greatly inspire the construction of SC electrodes.

Abstract
The efficient storage of electrons and the type of conduction in semiconductor materials are important factors in determining their electrochemical performance. However, the interaction between these two factors is often overlooked by researchers. In this study, the effects of Ni doping at Co3- x Nix O4 nanoparticles on the electronic storage form of the material and resulting changes in the conduction p/n-type are reported. Theoretical calculations demonstrate that n-type conduction with high effective mass of electrons contributes significantly to the redox reaction of electrode materials and is beneficial for improving electrochemical performance. The specific capacitance of Co3- x Nix O4 (x = 0.67) electrode material is 10 times larger than that of Co3 O4 due to enhanced orbital hybridization caused by Ni atom doping. The findings provide new directions for exploring the mechanism of conductive type conversion of materials and offer insights beyond the traditional approach of considering doping content alone.

Abstract
Through co-precipitation and post-heat processing, nanostructured Fe-doped Co3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) were developed. Using the SEM, XRD, BET, FTIR, TGA/DTA, UV-Vis, and techniques were examined. The XRD analysis presented that Co3O4 and Co3O4 nanoparticles that had been doped with 0.25 M Fe formed single cubic phase Co3O4 NPs with average crystallite sizes of 19.37 nm and 14.09 nm, respectively. The as prepared NPs have porous architectures via SEM analyses. The BET surface areas of Co3O4 and 0.25 M Fe-doped Co3O4 NPs were 53.06 m2/g and 351.56 m2/g, respectively. Co3O4 NPs have a band gap energy of 2.96 eV and an extra sub-band gap energy of 1.95 eV. Fe-doped Co3O4 NPs were also found to have band gap energies between 2.54 and 1.46 eV. FTIR spectroscopy was used to determine whether M-O bonds (M = Co, Fe) were present. The doping impact of iron results in the doped Co3O4 samples having better thermal characteristics. The highest specific capacitance was achieved using 0.25 M Fe-doped Co3O4 NPs at 5 mV/s, which corresponding to 588.5 F/g via CV analysis. Additionally, 0.25 M Fe-doped Co3O4 NPs had energy and power densities of 9.17 W h/kg and 472.1 W/kg, correspondingly.

Abstract
To enhance the performance of transition metal chalcogenide composite electrode material, a key point is a composite design and preparation based on the synergistic effect between the oxide and selenide materials. With a facile 'one step template-annealing' step, Ni3Se4, Ni0.6Zn0.4O and ZnO are simultaneously synthesized, by 500 °C annealing. With the increase of annealing temperature from 350 °C to 600 °C, nickel selenides change from NiSe2to Ni3Se4to NiSe. The charge storage capacity increases first and then decreases with the increase of annealing temperature, and the 500 °C annealing obtained three compound composite Ni3Se4/Ni0.6Zn0.4O/ZnO (NNZ-500) nanoparticle material displayed a high specific capacitance of 1089.2 F g-1at 1 A g-1, and excellent cycle stability of 99.8% capacitance retention after 2000 cycles at 5 A g-1. Moreover, an asymmetric supercapacitor was assembled with NNZ-500 as the positive electrode material and activated carbon as the negative electrode material. This kind of asymmetric supercapacitor demonstrated a high energy density of 53.4 Wh kg-1at 819.0 W kg-1, and cycle stability with 98.6% capacitance retention after 2000 cycles. This material preparation approach provides great potential for the future development of high performance transition metal composite electrode materials in energy storage applications.

Abstract
There have been numerous applications of supercapacitors in day-to-day life. Along with batteries and fuel cells, supercapacitors play an essential role in supplementary electrochemical energy storage technologies. They are used as power sources in portable electronics, automobiles, power backup, medical equipment, etc. Among various working electrode materials explored for supercapacitors, nanostructured transition metal oxides containing mixed metals are highly specific and special, because of their stability, variable oxidation states of the constituted metal ions, possibility to tune the mixed metal combinations, and existence of new battery types and extrinsic pseudocapacitance. This review presents the key features and recent developments in the direction of synthesis and electrochemical energy storage behavior of some of the recent morphology-oriented transition metal oxide and mixed transition metal oxide nanoparticles. We also targeted the studies on a few of the recently developed flexible and bendable supercapacitor devices based on these mixed transition metal oxides.

Abstract
The binary as well as ternary nanocomposites of the square-facet nanobar Co-MOF-derived Co3O4@Co/N-CNTs (N-CNTs: nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes) with Ag NPs and rGO have been synthesized via an easy wet chemical route, and their supercapacitor behavior was then studied. At a controlled pH of the precursor solution, square-facet nanobars of Co-MOF were first synthesized by the solvothermal method and then pyrolyzed under a controlled nitrogen atmosphere to get a core-shell system of Co3O4@Co/N-CNTs. In the second step, different compositions of Co3O4@Co/N-CNT core-shell structures were formed by an ex-situ method with Ag NPs and rGO moieties. Among several bare, binary, and ternary compositions tested in 6 M aqueous KOH electrolyte, a ternary nanocomposite having a 7.0:1.5:1.5 stoichiometric ratio of Co3O4@Co/N-CNT, Ag NPs, and rGO, respectively, reported the highest specific capacitance (3393.8 F g-1 at 5 mV s-1). The optimized nanocomposite showed the energy density, power density, and Coulombic efficiency of 74.1 W h.kg-1, 443.7 W.kg-1, and 101.3%, respectively, with excellent electrochemical stability. After testing an asymmetrical supercapacitor with a Co3O4@Co/N-CNT/Ag NPs/rGO/nickel foam cathode and an activated carbon/nickel foam anode, it showed 4.9 W h.kg-1 of energy density and 5000.0 W.kg-1 of power density.

Abstract
Oxygen vacancies occupation and coordination environment modulation of the transition-metal based electrodes are effective strategies to improve the structural stability and electrochemical performance. In this work, the 2-methylimidazole (2-MI) doped manganese dioxide (MnO2) anchored on carbon cloth (CC) is fabricated via a simple method (MI-MnO2-x/CC), where the oxygen defects on/inside the K+ doped δ-MnO2 nanosheets are in-situ created by reductive ethanol/Mn2+ and occupied by 2-MI ligands. With the pre-embedded K+ ions and abundant ligand-refilled defects, the electronic coordination structure, structural stability and electron/ion diffusion efficiency can be effectively enhanced. Therefore, the MI-MnO2-x/CC reveals a remarkable specific capacitance of 721.2 mF cm-2 with excellent cycle durability (capacitance retention of 93.4% after 10,000 cycles) under 1.3 V operation potential window. In addition, an asymmetric supercapacitor assembled by MI-MnO2-x/CC and activated mechanical exfoliated graphene oxide yields a maximum energy density of 57.0 Wh kg-1 and a highest power density of 23.0 kW kg-1 under 2.3 V. This effective oxygen defect stabilization strategy by ligands refilling can be extended to various metal oxide-based electrodes for energy storage and conversion.

Abstract
In the context to develop ultra-efficient electrode materials with good physicoelectrochemical and electrostructural properties, for their application in high-performance supercapatteries, herein, a facile tartrate-mediated inhibited crystal growth method is reported to engineer thoroughly uniform ribbon-like nickel cobaltite (NiCo2O4) microstructure with unique layer-by-layer-assembled nanocrystallites. This material demonstrates significant kinetic reversibility, good rate efficiency and bulk diffusibility of the electroactive ions, and a predominant semi-infinite diffusion mechanism during the redox-based charge storage process. This material also shows bias-potential-independent equivalent series resistance, very low charge-transfer resistance, and diagonal Warburg profile, corresponding to the ion diffusion occurring during the electrochemical processes in supercapacitors and batteries. Further, the fabricated NiCo2O4-based all-solid-state supercapattery (NiCo2O4||N-rGO) delivers excellent rate-specific capacity, very low internal resistance, good electrochemical and electrostructural stability (∼94% capacity retention after 10,000 charge-discharge cycles), energy density (31 W h kg-1) of a typical rechargeable battery, and power density (13,003 W kg-1) of an ultra-supercapacitor. The ultimate performance of the supercapattery is ascribed to low-dimensional crystallites, ordered inter-crystallite and channel-type bulk and boundary porosity, multiple reactive equivalents, enhanced electronic conductivity, and "ion buffering pool" like behavior of ribbon-like NiCo2O4, supplemented with enhanced electronic and ionic conductivities of N-doped rGO (negative electrode) and PVA/KOH gel (electrolyte separator), respectively.

Abstract
The use of nonrenewable fossil fuels for energy has increased in recent decades, posing a serious threat to human life. As a result, it is critical to build environmentally friendly and low-cost reliable and renewable energy storage solutions. The supercapacitor is a future energy device because of its higher power density and outstanding cyclic stability with a quick charge and discharge process. Supercapacitors, on the other hand, have a lower energy density than regular batteries. It is well known that the electrochemical characteristic of supercapacitors is strongly dependent on electrode materials. The current review highlights advance in the TMOs for supercapacitor electrodes. In addition, the newly discovered hybrid/pseudo-supercapacitors have been discussed. Metal oxides that are employed as electrode materials are the focus of this study. The discovery of nanostructured electrode materials continues to be a major focus of supercapacitor research. To create high-performance electrode materials from a morphological standpoint, various efforts have been attempted. Lastly, we analyze the supercapacitor’s evolving trend and our perspective for the future generations of supercapacitors.

Abstract
Simple preparation, favorable price and environmental protection have been a long-term challenge in the field of electrochemistry. Herein, we studied and prepared a bifunctional Mo-doped Co3O4 ultrathin nanosheets, which has been validated as an effective binder-free electrode material for electrocatalytic water splitting and supercapacitors. The material has a large specific surface area, high electrical conductivity and exposure to more active sites, breaking down the limited performance and range of use of transition metal oxides. Benefiting from intriguing ultrathin property and conductivity, OER and HER process of 0.4Mo-Co3O4 have a small Tafel slope of 83.7 and 98 mV dec-1, respectively. The current density at 10 mA cm-2 show a low overpotential of 315 and 79 mV and significant stability. The water electrolytic device requires a potential of 1.64 V to reach 10 mA cm-2, and the potential change is negligible after 12 h of continuous electrolysis. In addition, the manifest improved electrochemical performance of 0.3Mo-Co3O4 as supercapacitor electrode material shows high areal capacitance 2815 mF cm-2 at 1 mA cm-2, excellent rate performance (85% at 10 mA cm-2) and retains 90% of the initial capacitance by cycling 5000 at a current density of 10 mA cm-2. Moreover, 0.3Mo-Co3O4||0.3Mo-Co3O4 symmetrical supercapacitor has a maximum volumetric energy density of 1.25 mW h cm-3 at a power density of 7.1 mW cm-3 and superior cycle life. The influence of doping on electrochemical performance was studied by changing the content of doped metal ions, which is of great significance for the exploration of supercapacitor and electrocatalytic hydrolysis of bifunctional electrode materials.

Abstract
Exploring high-efficiency and low-cost bifunctional electrodes for supercapacitors and sensors is significant but challenging. Most of the existing electrodes are mostly single-functional materials with simple structure. Herein, NiCo2O4nanowires as the core and NiMn layered double hydroxide (LDH) as the shell is directly grownin situon carbon cloth (CC) to form a heterostructure (NiMn LDH@NiCo2O4/CC). The performance in supercapacitors and enzyme-free glucose sensing has been systematically studied. Compared with a single NiCo2O4nanowire or NiMn LDH nanosheet, the heterogeneous interface produced by the unique core-shell structure has stronger electronic interaction and abundant active surface area, which shows excellent electrochemical performance. Electrochemical tests demonstrate that the NiMn LDH@NiCo2O4/CC core-shell electrode possesses an area specific capacitance of 2.40 F cm-2and a rate capability of 76.22% at 20 mA cm-2. Simultaneously, asymmetric supercapacitor is assembled with it as the positive electrode and NiFe LDH@NiCo2O4/CC as the negative electrode. The supercapacitor possesses an energy density of 47.74 Wh kg-1when the power density is 175 W kg-1, revealing excellent performance and maintains cycle stability of 93.48% after 6000 cycles at 10 mA cm-2. Additionally, the electrode applied as enzyme-free glucose sensor electrode also displays outstanding sensitivity of 2139μA mM-1cm-2, wide detection range (2μM-3mM and 4-8 mM) and low detection limit of 210 nM, representing good anti-interference performance. This work reveals the multi-metal synergy and rationally designed core-shell structure is critical to the electrochemical performance of bifunctional electrodes.

Abstract
Large-scale Ni-based nano-sized coordination polymers (Ni-nCPs) are facilely constructed by a self-assembled approach at room temperature and atmosphere pressure. In this strategy, we use only the environmentally friendly solvents of water and ethanol, and the synthesis of 2D Ni-nCPs via a self-assembly route appears close to the "green chemistry" concept. In addition, the morphologies of the Ni-nCPs can be easily adjusted by the water/ethanol ratio. Owing to its unique 2D ultrathin nature and large specific surface area, Ni-nCPs-1 achieves a great number of channels for the transport of electrons and ions and electrochemically redox active sites for a faradaic reaction. Therefore, battery-type Ni-nCPs-1 electrodes have a bright prospect in energy storage, and can reach an outstanding specific capacitance value as high as 1066.9 F g-1 at 1 A g-1. Additionally, the asymmetric supercapacitor (Ni-nCPs-1//active carbon) displays a high energy density of 47.9 W h kg-1 at a power density of 440 W kg-1 and an excellent long-term cycle stability. This work may open up a new path in advanced electrode materials for efficient and real-time energy storge applications.

Abstract
The rational design and development of novel electrode materials with promising nanostructures is an effective technique to improve their supercapacitive performance. This work presents high-performance core/shell electrodes based on three-dimensional hierarchical nanostructures coated with conformal thin transition-metal oxide layers using atomic layer deposition (ALD). This effective interface engineering creates disorder in the electronic structure and coordination environment at the interface of the heteronanostructure, which provides many more reaction sites and rapid ion diffusion. At 3 A g-1, the positive CuCo2O4/Ni4Mo/MoO2@ALD-Co3O4 electrode introduced here exhibits a specific capacity of 1029.1 C g-1, and the fabricated negative Fe3O4@ALD-TiO2 electrode significantly outperforms conventional carbon-based electrodes, with a maximum specific capacity of 372.6 C g-1. The supercapattery cell assembled from these two interface- and surface-tailored electrodes exhibits a very high energy density of 110.4 W h kg-1 with exceptional capacity retention over 20,000 cycles, demonstrating the immense potential of ALD for the next generation of supercapacitors.

Abstract
Advanced carbon-based electrode materials derived from wastes are essential to high-performance supercapacitors due to their abundance and sustainability. In this work, we fabricate novel cathodes and anodes based on discarded surgicalmask-derived carbon (DSM-C). Discarded surgicalmasks are good candidates for carbon-based electrode materials due to their unique fibrous structure and simple composition compared to conventional biomass sources. Benefiting from the excellent electrical conductivity of DSM-C and abundant redox reactions from nickel oxide (NiO), the electrochemical performances of NiO/DSM-C composites have been greatly improved. Specifically, the DSM-C and NiO/DSM-C electrodes show high specific capacitances of 240 F g-1 and 496 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 respectively, and excellent rate capability. Moreover,asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) are assembled using DSM-C and NiO/DSM-C as anodes and cathodes, respectively. They deliver a high energy density of 57 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 702 W kg-1, accompanied by superior cycling stability (98.5% capacitance retention after 10,000 cycles). This work shows prospective applications of DSM-C as an electrode material for energy storage systems.

Transition Metal Oxide Electrode Materials for Supercapacitors: A Review of Recent Developments. NANOMATERIALS 2021; 11:nano11051248.

Abstract
In the past decades, the energy consumption of nonrenewable fossil fuels has been increasing, which severely threatens human life. Thus, it is very urgent to develop renewable and reliable energy storage devices with features of environmental harmlessness and low cost. High power density, excellent cycle stability, and a fast charge/discharge process make supercapacitors a promising energy device. However, the energy density of supercapacitors is still less than that of ordinary batteries. As is known to all, the electrochemical performance of supercapacitors is largely dependent on electrode materials. In this review, we firstly introduced six typical transition metal oxides (TMOs) for supercapacitor electrodes, including RuO2, Co3O4, MnO2, ZnO, XCo2O4 (X = Mn, Cu, Ni), and AMoO4 (A = Co, Mn, Ni, Zn). Secondly, the problems of these TMOs in practical application are presented and the corresponding feasible solutions are clarified. Then, we summarize the latest developments of the six TMOs for supercapacitor electrodes. Finally, we discuss the developing trend of supercapacitors and give some recommendations for the future of supercapacitors.

Abstract
Recently, much attention has been drawn in the development of flexible energy storage devices due to the increasing demands for flexible/portable electronic devices with high energy density, low weight, and good flexibility. Herein, vertically oriented graphene nanosheets (VGNs) are in situ fabricated on the surface of free-standing and flexible Si3 N4 nanowires (NWs) membrane by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), which are directly used as flexible nanoscale conductive substrates. NiCo2 O4 hollow nanospheres (HSs) and FeOOH amorphous nanorods (NRs) are finally prepared on Si3 N4NWs @VGNs, which are served as the positive and negative electrodes, respectively. Profiting from the structural merits, the synthesized Si3 N4NWs @VGNs@NiCo2 O4HSs and Si3 N4NWs @VGNs@FeOOHNRs membrane electrodes exhibit remarkable electrochemical performance. Using Si3 N4NWs membrane as the separator, the assembled all Si3 N4NWs membrane-based flexible solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) with a wide operating potential window of 1.8 V yields the outstanding energy density of 96.3 Wh kg-1 , excellent cycling performance (91.7% after 6000 cycles), and good mechanical flexibility. More importantly, this work provides a rational design strategy for the preparation of flexible electrode materials and broadens the applications of Si3 N4NWs in the field of energy storage.

Abstract
Aqueous electrochemical energy storage systems (AEESS) are considered as the most promising energy storage devices for large-scale energy storage. AEESSs, including batteries and supercapacitors, have received extensive attention due to their low cost, eco-friendliness, and high safety. However, the insufficient energy densities of the state-of-the-art AEESSs limit their practical applications which are mainly dominated by the electrochemical performances of individual electrode materials. Understanding the underlying relationship between structures, reaction mechanisms, and performances can further lead to the design and optimization of structures of the electrodes instructively, thereby harvesting favorable performances. This review classified the intrinsic logic of structure-mechanism-performance by taking some prevailing mechanisms with some classical structures of materials as examples. Moreover, some problem-oriented structural engineering strategies are proposed aiming to optimize their performance. Finally, comprehensive structural design engineering and some suggestions for fine modifications of electrode materials at the atomic and molecular levels are proposed to combine the advantages of supercapacitor- and battery-type materials for designing excellent electrode materials for AEESSs.
