Abstract
In this study, a convenient chitosan oligosaccharide laser lithograph (COSLL) technology was developed to fabricate laser-induced graphene (LIG) electrodes and flexible on-chip microsupercapacitors (MSCs). With a simple one-step CO2 laser, the pyrolysis of a chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) and in situ welding of the generated LIGs to engineering plastic substrates are achieved simultaneously. The resulting LIG products display a hierarchical porous architecture, excellent electrical conductivity (6.3 Ω sq-1), and superhydrophilic properties, making them ideal electrode materials for MSCs. The pyrolysis-welding coupled mechanism is deeply discussed through cross-sectional analyses and finite element simulations. The MSCs prepared by COSLL exhibit considerable areal capacitance of over 4 mF cm-2, which is comparable to that of the polyimide-LIG-based counterpart. COSLL is also compatible with complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) and micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) processes, enabling the fabrication of LIG/Au MSCs with comparable areal capacitance and lower internal resistance. Furthermore, the as-prepared MSCs demonstrate excellent mechanical robustness, long-cycle capability, and ease of series-parallel integration, benefiting their practical application in various scenarios. With the use of eco-friendly biomass carbon source and convenient process flowchart, the COSLL emerges as an attractive method for the fabrication of flexible LIG on-chip MSCs and various other advanced LIG devices.

Abstract
The continuous advancement in the field of flexible and wearable electronics has led to increased research interest in safe, low-cost, and flexible zinc-ion batteries, particularly with a focus on flexible electrolytes. In this study, we present a leather gel electrolyte (LGE) that offers robust mechanical properties and an excellent electrochemical performance. LGE exhibits an ionic conductivity of 1.36 × 10-2 S cm-1 and achieves a capacity of 303.7 mAh g-1 in flexible zinc-manganese dioxide batteries. Even after 1000 cycles, the capacity retention remains above 90%, demonstrating outstanding performance in protecting the zinc anode. Furthermore, such a flexible battery shows good resistance to damage due to the strong mechanical strength originating from leather. Notably, LGE utilizes green and sustainable leather as a raw material, making it a promising option for sustainable flexible devices.

Abstract
This study presents the in situ synthesis of CNT@SrTiO3 nanocomposite films for the development of high-performance flexible supercapacitors. The synthesis process involved the use of organic-inorganic hybrid polymers containing metal elements as precursors for thermal decomposition reaction under a reducing atmosphere. Due to the formation of chemical bonding between Ti elements and the CNTs, the interface between STO and CNT surface could provide additional active sites for ion transport and storage. Thereby, the incorporation of SrTiO3 nanoparticles into CNTs enhanced the electrochemical performance of the resulting nanocomposite membranes. To further investigate the influence of STO content and synthesis temperature, we conducted a detailed analysis. The findings indicated that the CNT@STO film with 25% STO content, synthesized at 700 °C, and possessed optimal performance with an areal capacitance of 6682 mF·cm-2 at 5 mV·s-1. Furthermore, a symmetrical flexible supercapacitor assembled by two CNT@STO-25 electrodes demonstrated strong application potential in wearable devices, owing to its long cycle life, excellent flexibility, and high energy density of 430.2 μWh·cm-2 (corresponding power density of 4.5 mW·cm-2). Based on these results, we believe that this study provides a fresh idea for the development of novel flexible energy storage materials.

Abstract
Manganese molybdate has garnered considerable interest in supercapacitor research owing to its outstanding electrochemical properties and nanostructural stability but still suffers from the common problems of transition metal oxides not being able to reach the theoretical specific capacitance and lower electrical conductivity. Doping phosphorus elements is an effective approach to further enhance the electrochemical characteristics of transition metal oxides. In this study, MnMoO4·H2O nanosheets were synthesized on nickel foam via a hydrothermal route, and the MnMoO4·H2O nanosheet structure was successfully doped with a phosphorus element using a gas-solid reaction method. Phosphorus element doping forms phosphorus-metal bonds and oxygen vacancies, thereby increasing the charge storage and conductivity of the electrode material. The specific capacitance value is as high as 2.112 F cm-2 (1760 F g-1) at 1 mA cm-2, which is 3.2 times higher than that of the MnMoO4·H2O electrode (0.657 F cm-2). The P-MnMoO4//AC ASC device provides a high energy density of 41.9 Wh kg-1 at 666.8 W kg-1, with an 84.5% capacity retention after 10,000 charge/discharge cycles. The outstanding performance suggests that P-MnMoO4 holds promise as an electrode material for supercapacitors.

Abstract
Preparing electrode material integrated with high gravimetric/volumetric capacitance and fast electron/ion transfer is crucial for the practical application. Owing to the structural contradiction, it is a big challenge to construct electrode material with high packing density, sufficient ion transport channels, and fast electronic transfer pathways. Herein, MnO2 porous carbon composite with abundant porous structure and 3D carbon skeleton was facilely fabricated from Linum usitatissimum. L stems via NaOH activation and MnO2 introduction. The in-situ introduced MnO2 not only increases the packing density and the electrical conductivity of the porous carbon but also provides more active sites for oxidation reactions. These unique characteristics endow the resultant MnO2 porous carbon composite with remarkable gravimetric capacitance of 549 F g-1, volumetric capacitance of 378 F cm-3, and capacitance retention of 54.9 %. Giving the simple process and low cost, this work might offer a new approach for structural design and the practical application of high-performance electrode materials.

Abstract
Six different polyoxotungstate-based transition metal complexes were synthesized, namely [Cu5(2,2'-bpy)5(μ2-Cl)2(PO4)2(H2O)2][HPW12O40]·2H2O (1), [Cu1.5(2,2'-bpy)1.5(inic)2(H2O)1.5]3[H1.5PW12O40]2·16.25H2O (2), [Cu(2,2'-bpy)2]2[SiW12O40]·10H2O (3), [Zn(phen)3]2[PWVWVI11O40]·5H2O (4), [Zn(phen)2(H2O)]2[SiW12O40]·2H2O (5), and [Zn(2,2'-bpy)2]2[SiW12O40] (6) (2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, inic = isonicotinic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). Compound 1 is based on [HPW12O40]2- anions, which are accommodated within the open channels of a supramolecular network formed by novel Cu-P-Cl coordination clusters. Compound 2 is constructed from [H1.5PW12O40]1.5- and novel [Cu1.5(2,2'-bpy)1.5(inic)2(H2O)1.5]+ coordination fragments, and polyoxoanions are encapsulated within the pores created by the copper coordination fragments, resulting in a unique three-dimensional supramolecular architecture. Compound 3 is a two-dimensional structure formed through the covalent linkage between [SiW12O40]4- and [Cu(2,2'-bpy)2]2+. Compound 4 is a supramolecular architecture formed by [PWVWVI11O40]4- and [Zn(phen)3]2+ coordination fragments, while compound 5 is a supramolecular structure based on POM bi-supported Zn coordination complexes. Compound 6 is a two-dimensional framework structure constituted by [SiW12O40]4- and [Zn(2,2'-bpy)2]2+via covalent interactions. In addition, electrochemical measurement results show that the copper-based tungstate compounds 1-3 and zinc-based tungstate compounds 4-6 exhibit different performances and durabilities as electrochemical capacitors (compound 1 shows the highest specific capacitance of 94.0 F g-1 at 1.5 A g-1, whereas compound 6 maintains the best cycling stability with the capacity retention of 80.7% after 1000 cycles at 4 A g-1.). This study contributes to the development of POM-based transition metal complexes with high capacitance by providing insights into the design and synthesis process.

Abstract
Photoelectrochemical water splitting via solar irradiation has garnered significant interest due to its potential in large-scale renewable hydrogen production. Heterostructure materials have emerged as an effective strategy, demonstrating enhanced performance in photoelectrochemical water-splitting applications compared to individual photocatalysts. In this study, to augment the performance of sprayed TiVO4 thin films, a hydrothermally prepared WO3 underlayer was integrated beneath the spray pyrolised TiVO4 film. The consequent heterostructure demonstrated notable enhancements in optical, structural, microstructural attributes, and photocurrent properties. This improvement is attributed to the strategic deposition of WO3 underlayer, forming a heterostructure composite electrode. This led to a marked increase in photocurrent density for the WO3/TiVO4 photoanode, reaching a peak of 740 μA/cm2 at an applied potential of 1.23 V vs RHE, about nine-fold that of standalone TiVO4. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy revealed a reduced semicircle for the heterostructure, indicating improved charge transfer compared to bare TiVO4. The heterostructure photoelectrode exhibited enhanced charge carrier conductivity at the interface and sustained stability over 3 h. The distinct attributes of heterostructure photoelectrode present significant opportunities for devising highly efficient sunlight-driven water-splitting systems.

Abstract
In this study, we report on the enhancement of the electrochemical properties of MXene by intercalating C60 nanoparticles between its layers. The aim was to increase the interlayer spacing of MXene, which has a direct effect on capacitance by allowing the electrolyte flow in the electrode. To achieve this, various concentrations of Ti3SiC2 (known as MXene) and C60 nanocomposites were prepared through a hydrothermal process under optimal conditions. The resulting composites were characterized by using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. Electrodes were fabricated using different concentrations of MXene and C60 nanocomposites, and current-voltage (I-V) measurements were performed at various scan rates to analyze the capacitance of pseudo supercapacitors. The results showed the highest capacitance of 348 F g1- for the nanocomposite with a composition of 90% MXene and 10% C60. We introduce MXene-C60 composites as promising electrode materials for supercapacitors and highlight their unique properties. Our work provides a new approach to designing high-performance electrode materials for supercapacitors, which can have significant implications for the development of efficient energy storage systems.

Abstract
Wearable energy storage devices require high mechanical stability and high-capacitance flexible electrodes. In this study, we design a flexible supercapacitor electrode consisting of 1-dimensional carbon nanotubes (CNT), cellulose nanofibrils (CNF), and manganese dioxide nanowires (MnO2 NWs). The flexible and conductive CNT/CNF-MnO2 NWs suspension was first prepared via ultrasonic dispersion approach, followed by vacuum filtration and hot press to form the composite paper electrode. The morphological studies show entanglement between CNT and CNF, which supports the mechanical properties of the composite. The CNT/CNF-MnO2 NWs electrode exhibits lower resistance when subjected to various bending angles (-120-+120°) compared to the CNT/CNF electrode. In addition, the solid-state supercapacitor also shows a high energy density of 38 μWh cm-2 and capacitance retention of 83.2% after 5000 cycles.

Abstract
To meet the energy requirement of the modern era, supercapacitors are promising candidates for energy storage devices, which possess the potential to compete with the future battery technology. To accomplish this pivotal task, it is vital to choose electrode materials that have high power and energy density as well as superb electrochemical stability. For the past few years, the use of gallium-based materials for energy storage applications has attracted attention because of their excellent activity towards electrochemical energy storage applications despite the single oxidation state (i.e., +3 which is redox inactive and does not contribute towards pseudo capacitance). Recently, research on gallium-based materials has started and will be continued further owing to the fact that gallium-based materials possess numerous excellent properties such as fast charge and discharge rate, high power density, long cycle life, stability over a wide range of temperatures, excellent electron velocity, superior chemical and physical stabilities and high voltage application capability, which make them a potential class of electrode materials for supercapacitors. The enhancement in the electrochemical performance upon the introduction of gallium into the system can make it a futuristic candidate for electrochemical energy storage devices. Herein, we systematically outline the synthesis and characterization of gallium-based materials and their composites as explored by esteemed researchers focusing only on their supercapacitive performance via electrochemical techniques. For a better understanding, the underlying charge storage mechanism and identified characteristics are presented to give a crystal-clear idea about the field. In addition, the key challenges and impending perspectives of gallium-based electrodes for supercapacitor applications are debated.

Abstract
Aerogel is a high-performance thermal resistance material desired for high-temperature applications like dye-sensitized solar cells, batteries, and fuel cells. To increase the energy efficiency of batteries, an aerogel is required to reduce the energy loss arising from the exothermal reaction. This paper synthesized a different composition of inorganic-organic hybrid material by growing the silica aerogel inside a polyacrylamide (PAAm) hydrogel. The hybrid PaaS/silica aerogel was synthesized using different irradiation doses of gamma rays (10-60 kGy) and different solid contents of PAAm (6.25, 9.37, 12.5, and 30 wt %). Here, PAAm is used as an aerogel formation template and carbon precursor after the carbonization process at a temperature of (150, 350, and 1100 °C). The hybrid PAAm/silica aerogel was converted into aluminum/silicate aerogels after soaking in a solution of AlCl3. Then, the carbonization process takes place at a temperature of (150, 350, and 1100 °C) for 2 h to provide C/Al/Si aerogels with a density of around 0.18-0.040 gm/cm3 and porosity of 84-95%. The hybrid C/Al/Si aerogels presented interconnected networks of porous structures with different pore sizes depending on the carbon and PAAm contents. The sample with a solid content of 30% PAAm in the C/Al/Si aerogel was composed of interconnected fibrils whose diameter was about 50 μm. The structure after carbonization at 350 and 1100 °C was a condensed opening porous 3D network structure. This sample gives the optimum thermal resistance and a very low thermal conductivity of 0.073 (w/m·k) at low carbon content (2.71% at temperature 1100 °C) and high vpore (95%) compared with carbon content 42.38% and vpore (93%) which give 0.102 (w/m·k). This is because at 1100 °C, the carbon atoms evolve to leave an area between Al/Si aerogel particles, increasing the pore size. Furthermore, the Al/Si aerogel had excellent removal ability for various oil samples.

This paper reviews the latest research progress of the supramolecular self-assembly strategy for the advanced electrode materials and electrolytes for supercapacitors, including supramolecular self-assembly for the preparation of high-performance carbon materials, metal-based materials and conductive polymer materials, and its beneficial effects on the performance of supercapacitors. The preparation of high performance supramolecular polymer electrolytes and their application in flexible wearable devices and high energy density supercapacitors are also discussed in detail. In addition, at the end of this paper, the challenges of the supramolecular self-assembly strategy are summarized and the development of supramolecular-derived materials for supercapacitors is prospected.

Abstract
The surface properties and the hierarchical pore structure of carbon materials are important for their actual application in supercapacitors. It is important to pursue an integrated approach that is both easy and cost-effective but also challenging. Herein, coal-based hierarchical porous carbon with nitrogen doping was prepared by a simple dual template strategy using coal as the carbon precursor. The hierarchical pores were controlled by incorporating different target templates. Thanks to high conductivity, large electrochemically active surface area (483 m2 g-1), hierarchical porousness with appropriate micro-/mesoporous channels, and high surface nitrogen content (5.34%), the resulting porous carbon exhibits a high specific capacitance in a three-electrode system using KOH electrolytes, reaching 302 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 and 230 F g-1 at 50 A g-1 with a retention rate of 76%. At 250 W kg-1, the symmetrical supercapacitor assembled at 6 M KOH shows a high energy density of 8.3 Wh kg-1, and the stability of the cycling is smooth. The energy density of the symmetric supercapacitor assembled under ionic liquids was further increased to 48.3 Wh kg-1 with a power output of 750 W kg-1 when the operating voltage was increased to 3 V. This work expands the application of coal-based carbon materials in capacitive energy storage.

Abstract
The self-standing graphene membranes are considered as ideal electrode materials for supercapacitors. However, maintaining highly regularized and uniform graphene membranes with satisfied electrochemical performance is still a challenge. Herein, with the chelation of metal cation and the radial shear force introduced by high-speed spinning, the uniform interlayer channels and shrunken cracks between adjacent nanosheets can be achieved in the metal-intercalated graphene oxide (GO) membranes, thus realizing regularization both in normal and radial direction. With the promotion in electron transfer and electrolyte penetration, the iron cross-linked GO membrane with spin coating for 40 cycles exhibits a high specific capacitance (427 F g-1 at 1 A g-1) and rate capability (42.6% capacitance retention from 1 to 40 A g-1), as well as excellent cyclic capability (90.5% capacitance retention after 20,000 cycles). Particularly, a 21% increasement in capacitance can be achieved after high-speed spinning treatment. Moreover, the spin regularization strategy can be extended to GO membranes cross-linked by various multi-valence metal cations, the electrochemical performance of metal-cation cross-linked GO membrane electrodes after high-speed spinning treatment can also be improved obviously. Therefore, this paper provides a novel method to fabricate highly ordered GO membranes with promising electrochemical performance, which presents an immense potential application in membrane materials applied in energy storage, separation and catalysis.

Abstract
Asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) based on a battery-type anode and a capacitive-type cathode have been attracting extensive interest because of their high energy density. Herein, NiO nanosheets are hydrothermally deposited onto a V4C3TX substrate, which are then assembled into a 3D porous heterostructure hydrogel through a graphene oxide-assisted self-convergence hydrothermal process at low temperatures. The resultant hierarchical V4C3TX@NiO-RGO heterostructure hydrogel exhibits an ultrahigh specific capacitance of up to 1014.5 F g-1 at 1 A g-1. In addition, a defective reduced graphene oxide (DRGO) hydrogel is prepared using a cost-effective hydrothermal procedure followed by cobalt-catalyzed gasification, which shows a higher specific capacitance (258 F g-1 at 1 A g-1) than the untreated RGO hydrogel (176 F g-1). These two electrodes are then assembled into an ASC; the device features a stable operating voltage of 1.8 V, a maximum energy density of 86.22 W h kg-1 at 900 W kg-1, and excellent cycling stability at 96.4% capacitance retention after 10 000 cycles at 10 A g-1. The results from this work highlight the unique potential of MXene-based materials for the construction of high-performance ASCs.

Abstract
At present, the self-supporting paper-based electrode has some problems, such as low mechanical strength and insufficient flexibility, which restrict its application in flexible electronics. In this paper, FWF is used as the skeleton fiber, and the contact area and the number of hydrogen bonds of the fiber are increased by grinding the fiber and adding nanofibers to bridge it, and a level three gradient enhanced skeleton support network structure is constructed, which effectively improves the mechanical strength and foldability of the paper-based electrodes. The tensile strength of FWF15-BNF5 paper-based electrode is 7.4 MPa, the elongation at break is increased to 3.7%, the electrode thickness is as low as 66 μm, the electrical conductivities is 5.6 S cm-1, and the contact angle to electrolyte as low as 45°, which has excellent electrolyte wettability, flexibility, and foldability. After three-layer superimposed rolling, the discharge areal capacity reached 3.3 mAh cm-2 and 2.9 mAh cm-2 at the rate of 0.1 C and 1.5 C, respectively, which was superior to the commercial LFP electrode, it had good cycle stability, and the areal capacity was 3.0 mAh cm-2 and 2.8 mAh cm-2 after 100 cycles at the rate of 0.3 C and 1.5 C.

Abstract
It remains a great challenge to design and manufacture battery-type supercapacitors with satisfactory flexibility, appropriate mechanical property, and high energy density under high power density. Herein, a concept of porous engineering is proposed to simply prepare two-layered bimetallic heterojunction with porous structures. This concept is successfully applied in fabrication of flexible electrode based on CuO-Co(OH)2 lamella on Cu-plated carbon cloth (named as CPCC@CuO@Co(OH)2 ). The unique structure brings the electrode a high specific capacity of 3620 mF cm-2 at 2 mA cm-2 and appropriate mechanical properties with Young's modulus of 302.0 MPa. Density functional theory calculations show that porous heterojunction provides a higher intensity of electron state density near the Fermi level (E-Ef = 0 eV), leading to a highly conductive CPCC@CuO@Co(OH)2 electrode with both efficient charge transport and rapid ion diffusion. Notably, the supercapacitor assembled from CPCC@CuO@Co(OH)2 //CC@AC shows high energy density of 127.7 W h kg-1 at 750.0 W kg-1 , remarkable cycling performance (95.53% capacity maintaining after 10 000 cycles), and desired mechanical flexibility. The methodology and results in this work will accelerate the transformative developments of flexible energy storage devices in practical applications.

Abstract
Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) are a group of twenty (20) chronic, communicable, infectious diseases endemic to the tropics and sub-tropics climate countries, which are intimately associated with poverty, poor sanitation, limited clean water, and healthcare delivery; and dwellers live in proximity to pathogens and diseases vectors. The pathogens are protozoans, bacteria, helminths, fungi, and viruses. NTDs currently affect about one billion people globally, out of which 500 million are Africans living in rural settlements with low political voice and support. In recent years, NTDs have received little research recognition, development, and funding because more research efforts by global health stakeholders are focused on recognized diseases like cancers, hepatitis, tuberculosis, Acquired Immune-Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), and malaria that affects most developed countries. The emergence of the viral novel COVID-19 will exacerbate the burden of NTDs on disadvantaged communities as global health efforts are again focused on COVID-19 clearance in terms of research and development to find a drug/vaccine amidst other investigations on recognized infections. This development can result in high death tolls due to NTDs if control measures are not prioritized now. This perspective addresses the need for NTDs control amidst COVID-19 clearance efforts to mitigate another viral health crisis in Africa.

Abstract
The complicated preparation process and low energy density of polyaniline (PANI)-based electrodes limit their wide applications in flexible energy storage devices. In this work, a reduced graphene (rGO)-wrapped polyaniline nanofiber network (PANI-NFN)/oxidized carbon cloth (OCC) (rGO@PANI-NFN/OCC) composite was prepared by a facile impregnation method using reactive templates of MnO2 on the surface of OCC. The as-prepared rGO@PANI-NFN/OCC composite exhibited a high area specific capacitance of 4438 mF cm-2 and maintained an initial capacitance of 88.2% after 3000 GCD cycles. It can be used as an independent electrode to construct flexible solid-state supercapacitors (FSSCs), and the FSSCs based on rGO@PANI-NFN/OCC also exhibit a high energy density of 117.9 μW h cm-2 and 88.39% retention after 500 bending cycles, which shows a great prospect for flexible energy storage device applications. The enhanced performance of rGO@PANI-NFN/OCC composites is mainly attributed to the synergistic effect of PANI-NFN structures with a large specific surface area and a rGO wrap layer to reduce the swelling and shrinking of PANI.

Abstract
Electrochemical pseudocapacitors, along with batteries, are the essential components of today's highly efficient energy storage systems. Cobalt oxide is widely developing for hybrid supercapacitor pseudocapacitance electrode applications due to its wide range of redox reactions, high theoretical capacitance, low cost, and presence of electrical conductivity. In this work, a recovery annealing approach is proposed to modify the electrochemical properties of Co3O4 pseudocapacitive electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry measurements indicate a predominance of surface-controlled redox reactions as a result of recovery annealing. X-ray diffraction, Raman spectra, and XPES results showed that due to the small size of cobalt oxide particles, low-temperature recovery causes the transformation of the Co3O4 nanocrystalline phase into the CoO phase. For the same reason, a rapid reverse transformation of CoO into Co3O4 occurs during in situ oxidation. This recrystallization enhances the electrochemical activity of the surface of nanoparticles, where a high concentration of oxygen vacancies is observed in the resulting Co3O4 phase. Thus, a simple method of modifying nanocrystalline Co3O4 electrodes provides much-improved pseudocapacitance characteristics.

Abstract
In this study, we rationally designed a facile stepwise route and successfully synthesized a Co(OH)2/Ni3S2 heterostructure supported on nickel foam (NF) as a binder-free electrode for energy storage. Galvanostatic deposition was first applied to produce uniform Co(OH)2 nanoflakes on NF. Then, Ni3S2 was applied to its surface by potentiostatic deposition to form a Co(OH)2/Ni3S2 heterostructure at room temperature. The added Co(OH)2 not only functions as a practical electrochemically active component but also provides support for the growth of Ni3S2, and the deposition amount of Ni3S2 is controlled by adjusting the electrodeposition duration of Ni3S2. Then, the electrochemical behaviors of the Co(OH)2/Ni3S2 composite can be optimized. A maximum areal specific capacitance (Cs) of 5.73 F cm−2 at 2 mA cm−2 was achieved, and the coulombic efficiency was as high as 94.14%. A capacitance retention of 84.38% was measured after 5000 charge–discharge cycles.

Abstract
With the rapid evolution of wearable electronics, the demand for flexible energy storage devices is gradually increasing. At present, the commonly used energy storage devices in life are based on rigid frames, which may lead to failure or explosion when mechanical deformation occurs. The main reason for this phenomenon is the insufficient elastic limit of the metal foil current collector with a simple plane structure inside the electrodes. Obviously, the design and introduction of innovative structural materials in current collectors is the key point to solving this problem. Several recent studies have shown that metal nanowires can be used as novel current collector materials to fabricate flexible energy storage devices. Herein, we review the applications of metal nanowires in the field of flexible energy storage devices by selecting the three most representative metals (Au, Ag, and Cu). By the analysis of the various typical literature, the advantages and disadvantages of these three metal nanowires (Au, Ag, and Cu) are discussed respectively. Finally, we look forward to the development direction of one-dimensional (1D) metal nanowires in flexible energy storage devices and show the personal opinions with a reference value, hoping to provide the experience and ideas for related research in the future.

Abstract
The rapid development of portable electronics has contributed to an urgent demand for versatile and flexible electrodes of wearable energy storage devices and pressure sensors. We fabricate a stretchable electrode by coupling the nickel-cobalt sulfide (NiCoS) nanosheet layer with Ag@NiCo nanowire (NW) networks. NiCoS wrinkled nanostructure, highly conductive networks, and intense interactions between substrate/networks and active materials/networks endow the electrodes with excellent energy storage capacity, superior electrochemical/mechanical stability, and good conductivity. A high-performance asymmetric supercapacitor is developed using the composite electrode. It operates in a wide potential window of 1.4 V and achieves a maximum energy density of 40.0 W h kg-1 at a power density of 1.1 kW kg-1; it also exhibits excellent mechanical flexibility and good waterproof performance. Moreover, a sandwiched capacitive pressure sensor constructed using the same electrodes has a wide sensing range (up to 260 kPa), low detection limit (∼47 mN), fast response (∼66 ms), and excellent mechanical stability (10 000 cycles). This study demonstrates that the appropriate design of the functional electrode facilitates the construction of various high-performance devices, denoting the versatility of our electrodes in the development of wearable electronics.

Abstract
All-in-one supercapacitors are considered to be promising due to their advantages of flexibility and structure stability. However, the sophisticated and precise manufacturing processes and difficulty of series/parallel integration hinder their application and development. Herein, cost-effective all-in-one fabric-based supercapacitors (all-in-one FSCs) are fabricated by utilizing the facile screen-printing technique and multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) electrodes. The MWCNT electrodes are constructed on the gel-electrolyte-soaked fabric that simultaneously serves as separator and electrode substrates. The as-prepared all-in-one FSC exhibits better capacitive behavior and rate capability and lower internal resistance than traditional sandwiched fabric-based supercapacitors (sandwiched FSCs). Moreover, due to the simplified structure and interface interaction, the all-in-one FSC shows excellent flexibility and stability even under dynamic bending cycles with a relatively high strain rate of 20% s-1. This work also demonstrates the seamless series/parallel integration scheme of all-in-one supercapacitors by designing the screen-printing patterns instead of using metal wires. The proposed fabrication process and series/parallel integration scheme definitely improve the portability of integrated supercapacitors and potentially contribute to the large-scale production and application on wearable electronics.

Abstract
For hybrid electric vehicles, supercapacitors are an attractive technology which, when used in conjunction with the batteries as a hybrid system, could solve the shortcomings of the battery. Supercapacitors would allow hybrid electric vehicles to achieve high efficiency and better power control. Supercapacitors possess very good power density. Besides this, their charge-discharge cycling stability and comparatively reasonable cost make them an incredible energy-storing device. The manufacturing strategy and the major parts like electrodes, current collector, binder, separator, and electrolyte define the performance of a supercapacitor. Among these, electrode materials play an important role when it comes to the performance of supercapacitors. They resolve the charge storage in the device and thus decide the capacitance. Porous carbon, conductive polymers, metal hydroxide, and metal oxides, which are some of the usual materials used for the electrodes in the supercapacitors, have some limits when it comes to energy density and stability. Major research in supercapacitors has focused on the design of stable, highly efficient electrodes with low cost. In this review, the most recent electrode materials used in supercapacitors are discussed. The challenges, current progress, and future development of supercapacitors are discussed as well. This study clearly shows that the performance of supercapacitors has increased considerably over the years and this has made them a promising alternative in the energy sector.

Abstract
Flexibility of the films and the limited ion transport in the vertical direction of film highly restrict the development of flexible supercapacitors. Herein, we have developed hybrid porous films consisting of N-doped holey graphene nanosheets (NHGR) with abundant in-plane nanopores and the vertically aligned polyaniline nanowires arrays on polypyrrole nanotubes (PPy@PANI) via a two-step oxidative polymerization strategy and vacuum filtration. The rational design can efficiently shorten the diffusion path of electrons/ions, alleviate volume variation of electrodes during cycling, enhance electric conductivity of the hybrids, and while offer abundant active interfacial sites for electrochemical reaction. Benefiting from the distinctive structural and compositional merits, the obtained PPy@PANI/NHGR film electrode manifests an excellent electrochemical properties in terms of specific capacity (1348 mF cm-2at a current density of 1 mA cm-2), rate capability (81.2% capacitance retention from 1 to 30 mA cm-2), and cycling stability (capacitance retention of 73.7% at 20 mA cm-2after 7000 cycles). Matched with NHGR negative electrode, the assembled flexible all-solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor displays a remarkable areal capacitance of 359 mF cm-2at 5 mA cm-2, maximum areal energy density of 112.2μWh cm-2at 3.747 mW cm-2, and good flexibility at various bending angles while preserving stable cycling performance. The result shows the PPy@PANI/NHGR film with high flexibility and 3D ions transport channels is highly attractive for flexible energy storage devices.
