Abstract
Great changes have occurred in the energy storage area in recent years as a result of rapid economic expansion. People have conducted substantial research on sustainable energy conversion and storage systems in order to mitigate the looming energy crisis. As a result, developing energy storage materials is critical. Materials with an open frame structure are known as Prussian blue analogs (PBAs). Anode materials for oxides, sulfides, selenides, phosphides, borides, and carbides have been extensively explored as anode materials in the field of energy conversion and storage in recent years. The advantages and disadvantages of oxides, sulfides, selenides, phosphides, borides, carbides, and other elements, as well as experimental methodologies and electrochemical properties, are discussed in this work. The findings reveal that employing oxides, sulfides, selenides, phosphides, borides, and other electrode materials to overcome the problems of low conductivity, excessive material loss, and low specific volume is ineffective. Therefore, this review intends to address the issues of diverse energy storage materials by combining multiple technologies to manufacture battery materials with low cost, large capacity, and extended service life.

Abstract
Prussian blue analogs (PBAs), the oldest artificial cyanide-based coordination polymers, possess open framework structures, large specific surface areas, uniform metal active sites, and tunable composition, showing significant perspective in electrochemical energy storage. These electrochemically active materials have also been converted to various functional metal containing nanomaterials, including carbon encapsulated metals/metal alloys, metal oxides, metal sulfides, metal phosphides, etc. originating from the multi-element compositions as well as elaborate structure design. In this paper, a comprehensive review will be presented on the recent progresses in the development of PBA frameworks and their derivatives based electrode materials and electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy storage and conversion. In particular, it will focus on the synthesis of representative nanostructures, the structure design, and figure out the correlation between nanomaterials structure and electrochemical performance. Lastly, critical scientific challenges in this research area are also discussed and perspective directions for the future research in this field are provided, in order to provide a brand new vision into the further development of novel active materials for the next-generation advanced electrochemical devices.

Abstract
Starch is a modern and prospective biodegradable material, which could improve lithium-ion batteries by making them safer and thus increasing the energy density and capacity of the cells. The main aim of this study was to research the influence of the physical and chemical properties of different botanical origin starches on their electrochemical properties. The investigation was carried out by examining the colloid stability of starches in water solution at room temperature, and the size of particles, which gave really good stability results. Moreover, the vibrations and the functional groups structure were described by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The surface properties were characterized by determining the specific surface area, pore diameter and volume diameter. The structures of the granules were determined by scanning electron microscope (SEM) measurement. The results of the electrochemical investigations showed good cyclic reversibility and stability. The research was aimed at improving and modifying current lithium-ion cells using biodegradable material as an active anode material, which is connected with the currently well-known "Green Chemistry".

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), materials constructed from organic building blocks joined by robust covalent bonds, have emerged as attractive materials in the context of electrochemical applications because of their high, intrinsic porosities and crystalline frameworks, as well as their ability to be tuned across two- and three-dimensions by the judicious selection of building blocks. Because of the recent and rapid development of this field, we have summarized COFs employed for electrochemical applications, such as batteries and capacitors, water splitting, solar cells, and sensors, with an emphasis on the structural design and resulting performance of the targeted electrochemical system. Overall, we anticipate this review will stimulate the design and synthesis of the next generation of COFs for use in electrochemical applications and beyond.

Abstract
Rechargeable metal-ion batteries are considered promising electric storage systems to meet the emerging demand from electric vehicles, electronics, and electric grids. Thus far, secondary Li-ion batteries (LIBs) have seen great advances in terms of both their energy and their power density. However, safety issues remain a challenge. Therefore, rechargeable Al-ion batteries (AIBs) with a highly reliable safety advantage and active electrochemical performances have gathered intensive attention. However, the common issue for these two metal-ion batteries is the lack of cathode materials. Many advanced electrode materials reported provide greatly enhanced electrochemical properties. However, their inherent disadvantages-such as complicated fabrication procedures, restricted manufacturing parameters, and the requirement of expensive instruments-limits their potential for further applications. In this work, we demonstrate the high electrochemical activity of the lanthanide element, Sm, towards storing charges when used in both LIBs and AIBs. Lanthanide elements are often overlooked; however, they generally have attractive electrochemical properties owing to their unpaired electrons. We employed starch as both a low-cost carbon source and as a three-dimensional support for Sm metal nanoparticles. The composite product is fabricated using a one-pot wet-chemical method, followed by a simultaneous carbonization process. As a result, highly improved electrochemical properties are obtained when it is used as a cathode material for both LIBs and AIBs when compared to bare starch-derived C. Our results may introduce a new avenue toward the design of high-performance electrode materials for LIBs and AIBs.

Abstract
Capacitors allow extremely fast charge and discharge operations, which is a challenge faced by recent metal-ion batteries despite having highly improved energy densities. Thus, combined type electric energy storage devices that can integrate high energy density and high power density with high potentials, can overcome the shortcomings of the current metal-ion batteries and capacitors. However, the limited capacities of cathode materials owing to the barren redox reactions are regarded as an obstacle for the development of future high-performance hybrid metal-ion capacitors. In this study, we demonstrate the redox-reaction-rendering effect of the much overlooked lanthanide elements when used as the cathode of lithium-ion capacitors using the mesoporous carbon (MC) as a matrix material. Consequently, these lanthanide elements can effectively enrich the redox reaction, thus improving the capacity of the matrix materials by more than two times. Typically, the Gd-elemental decoration of MC surprisingly enhances the capacity by almost two times as compared with the underacted MC. Furthermore, the La nanoparticles (NPs) decoration depicts the same behavior. Evident redox peaks were formed on the original rectangular cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves. This study provides the first example of embedding lanthanide elements on matrix materials to enrich the desired redox reactions for improving the electrochemical performances.

Abstract
Neuro-transmitters have been considered to be essential biochemical molecules, which monitor physiological and behavioral function in the peripheral and central nervous systems. Thus, it is of high pharmaceutical and biological significance to analyze neuro-transmitters in the biological samples. So far, researchers have devised a lot of techniques for assaying these samples. It has been found that electro-chemical sensors possess features of robustness, selectivity, and sensitivity as well as real-time measurement. Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and carbon QDs (CQDs) are considered some of the most promising carbon-based nanomaterials at the forefront of this research area. This is due to their characteristics including lower toxicity, higher solubility in various solvents, great electronic features, strong chemical inertness, high specific surface areas, plenty of edge sites for functionalization, and versatility, in addition to their ability to be modified via absorbent surface chemicals and the addition of modifiers or nano-materials. Hence in the present review, the synthesis methods of GQDs and CQDs has been summarized and their characterization methods also been analyzed. The applications of carbon-based QDs (GQDs and CQDs) in biological and sensing areas, such as biological imaging, drug/gene delivery, antibacterial and antioxidant activity, photoluminescence sensors, electrochemiluminescence sensors and electrochemical sensors, have also been discussed. This study then covers sensing features of key neurotransmitters, including dopamine, tyrosine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, serotonin and acetylcholine. Hence, issues and challenges of the GQDs and CQDs were analyzed for their further development. Carbon and graphene quantum dots for biological and sensing applications of neurotransmitters.![]()

Abstract
Electrode materials are the most significant components of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and play an important role in endowing them with high electrochemical performance. The exploration of new electrode materials and their comparative study with contemporary resources will help the design of advanced electrodes. Here, we have synthesized a new type of Prussian blue analogue (cerium(III) hexacyanocobaltate, CeHCCo) and systematically explored the effect of valence states of Fe2+ and Ce3+ on crystal structure and electrochemical properties of final products. We demonstrate that the unbalanced charge in iron(II) hexacyanocobaltate (FeHCCo), as opposed to that in CeHCCo, results in more residual K+ ions, thereby leading to the occupancy of cavities. As a result, the K+ ion-rich FeHCCo exhibits lower capacities of 55 ± 3 and 15 ± 3 mAh g-1 at 0.1 and 1 A g-1, respectively, compared with the K+ ion-deficient CeHCCo that exhibits capacities of 242 ± 3 and 111 ± 3 mAh g-1 at the same current densities. This work provides a novel contribution for the exploration of new Prussian blue analogues and bestows a newer concept for electrode material design.

Metal-organic framework-derived metal oxide nanoparticles@reduced graphene oxide composites as cathode materials for rechargeable aluminium-ion batteries. Sci Rep 2019; 9:13739. [PMID: 31551435 PMCID: PMC6760151 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-50156-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2019] [Accepted: 08/27/2019] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
The use of metal oxides as electrode materials has seen great success in lithium-ion batteries. However, this type of electrode materials has been regarded as an improper option for rechargeable aluminium-ion batteries (AIBs) in comparison with sulfides and selenides, and has, thus, been nearly abandoned. Here, we demonstrate the suitability of metal oxides as cathode materials of AIBs, exhibiting high electrochemical activities toward Al-ion storage. We designed economical metal-oxide cathodes (Co3O4@reduced graphene oxide (rGO), Fe2O3@rGO, and CoFe2O4@rGO) for AIBs. The Co3O4@rGO displayed superior electrochemical properties, regarding both capacity and lifespan, to the current state-of-the-art cathode material reported by scientific literature. Furthermore, the CoFe2O4@rGO exhibits rational electrochemical capacities and an extremely stable charge/discharge process with an excellent Coulombic efficiency of 99.6%. The proposed study expects to stimulate researchers to focus on the overlooked metal oxides as competitive cathode materials for high performance AIBs.
