Abstract
Three-dimensional interconnected nickel-cobalt layered double hydroxides (NiCo-LDHs) were prepared on nickel foam by ion exchange using a cobalt-based metal-organic framework (Co-MOF) as a template at different temperatures. The effects of the Co-MOF preparation temperature on the growth, mass, morphology, and electrochemical properties of the Co-MOF and derived NiCo-LDH samples were studied. The synthesis temperature from 30 to 50 °C gradually increased the mass of the active material and the thickness of the Co-MOF sheets grown on the nickel foam. The higher the temperature is, the larger the proportion of Co3+. β-Cobalt hydroxide (β-Co(OH)2) sheets were generated above 60 °C. The morphology and mass loading pattern of the derived flocculent layer clusters of NiCo-LDH were inherited from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The areal capacitance of NiCo-LDH shows an inverted U-shaped curve trend with increasing temperature. The electrode material synthesized at 50 °C had a tremendous specific capacitance of 7631 mF·cm-2 at a current density of 2 mA·cm-2. The asymmetric supercapacitor assembled with the sample and active carbon (AC) achieved an energy density of 55.0 Wh·kg-1 at a power density of 800.0 W·kg-1, demonstrating the great potential of the NiCo-LDH material for energy storage. This work presents a new strategy for designing and fabricating advanced green supercapacitor materials with large power and energy densities.

Abstract
Oxygen electrocatalysis is a key process for many effective energy conversion techniques, which requires the development of high-performance electrocatalysts. Carbon nanofibers featuring good electronic conductivity, large specific surface area, high axial strength and modulus, and good resistance toward harsh environments have thus been recognized as reinforcements in oxygen electrocatalysis. This review summarizes the recent progress on carbon nanofibers as electrocatalysts for oxygen electrocatalysis, with special focus on the modulation of carbon nanofibers for further elevating their electrocatalytic performance, which includes morphological and structural engineering, surface and pore size distribution, defect engineering, and coupling with other electroactive materials. Additionally, the correlation between the geometrical/electronic structure of their active centers and electrocatalytic activity is systematically discussed. Finally, conclusions and perspectives of this interesting research field are presented, which we hope will provide guidance for the future fabrication of more advanced carbon-fiber-based electrocatalysts.

Abstract
The investigation of high-performance supercapacitors is essential for accelerating the development of energy storage devices. In this work, a 3D hierarchical nanosheet array-like nickel cobaltite/reduced graphene oxide/nickel foam composite (NiCo2O4/rGO/NF) was assembled via an aqueous coprecipitation-hydrothermal strategy assisted by citric acid. Benefiting from a NiCo layered-double-hydroxide precursor with an atomic-level lattice confinement effect of metal ions and effective hybridization with rGO, the NiCo2O4/rGO/NF composite is featured as thin NiCo2O4 nanosheets (∼113.6 nm × 11.2 nm) composed of NiCo2O4 nanoparticles (∼10.9 nm) vertically staggered on the surface of a rGO-modified NF skeleton, leading to high surface area, abundant mesoporous structure, and active site exposure. The as-obtained NiCo2O4/rGO/NF was directly used as a binder-free integrated electrode for supercapacitors, achieving an excellent specific capacitance of 2863.4 F g-1 (1503.3 C g-1) at 1 A g-1, a superior rate performance of 2335.2 F g-1 at 20 A g-1, and a stability retention of 91.7% after 5000 cycles. More impressively, a solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor assembled by the present NiCo2O4/rGO/NF integrated electrode as the positive electrode and commercial activated carbon as the negative electrode achieved a high energy density of 69.2 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 800 W kg-1, and the energy density at a peak power density of 20004 W kg-1 still remained at 48.9 Wh kg-1, also showing a good cycling stability of 87.2% retention over 10000 cycles. The present facile synthesis strategy of the as-obtained NiCo2O4/rGO/NF nanosheet array composite can be used for the design and construction of many other transition-metal oxide/graphene/NF composite materials with excellent structural stability and performance in energy storage and other related areas.

Abstract
Among several electrocatalysts for energy storage purposes including supercapacitors, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and their derivatives have spurred wide spread interest owing to their structural merits, multifariousness with tailor-made functionalities and tunable pore sizes. The electrochemical performance of supercapacitors can be further enhanced using in situ grown MOFs and their derivatives, eliminating the role of insulating binders whose "dead mass" contribution hampers the device capability otherwise. The expulsion of binders not only ensures better adhesion of catalyst material with the current collector but also facilitates the transport of electron and electrolyte ions and remedy cycle performance deterioration with better chemical stability. This review systematically summarizes different kinds of metal-ligand combinations for in situ grown MOFs and derivatives, preparation techniques, modification strategies, properties, and charge transport mechanisms as freestanding electrode materials in determining the performance of supercapacitors. In the end, the review also highlights potential promises, challenges, and state-of-the-art advancement in the rational design of electrodes to overcome the bottlenecks and to improve the capability of MOFs in energy storage applications.

Abstract
While metal sulfides have extensively investigated as electrode materials for supercapacitors, the further optimization of their material system is still necessary to achieve satisfied performance. In this work, we reported the synthesis of ternary metal sulfide SnNiCoS and its application as electrode material of asymmetric supercapacitors, in which active carbon is used as the other electrode. For control experiments, asymmetric supercapacitors based on single metal sulfide CoS and binary metal sulfide NiCoS are also fabricated and investigated. The results show that the nanospherical SnNiCoS achieves the best performance. Ternary sulphide materials offer more redox than corresponding single-metal sulphides due to the synergy among various transition metal elements. The specific capacitance is 18.6 F cm-2at current density of 5 mA·cm-2. An energy density of 937.2μWh cm-2is achieved at a power density of 4000μW·cm-2. After 8000 cycles, the capacity retention rate is 82.9%. Present work indicates that SnNiCoS ternary metal sulfide could be a promising composite for high performance supercapacitors.

Abstract
Achieving a high volumetric energy density supercapacitor is of great significance for portable energy storage devices while still a major challenge. Herein, we design and fabricate self-supporting electrodes using CoZnNi oxyphosphide nanoarrays sandwiched graphene/carbon nanotube (CZNP/GC) film with highly exposed active sites. Benefitting from the modified electronic structures, high accessible surface areas, and the integrated structure, the well-designed CZNP/GC electrode exhibits an ultra-high volumetric capacitance of 2096.4 F cm-3 at a current density of 1 A g-1. Moreover, a high-performance negative electrode of carbon/rGO/CNTs (C/GC) is also fabricated using the same CoZn-metal-organic frameworks precursor. The assembled asymmetric supercapacitor CZNP/GC//C/GC displays an ultra-high volumetric energy density of 71.8 W h L-1 at 960 W L-1. After 6000 charge-discharge cycles, the device still maintains 85.6% of the original capacitance. The density functional theory calculation is studied and the negative adsorption energy proves that the OH- adsoption process onto the surface of as-prepared electrode is thermodynamically favorable, facilitating the electrochemical reaction. This work provides a new option in constructing tailorable electrodes with a well-defined hierarchical structure for supercapacitor and beyond.
