Critical roles of molybdate anions in enhancing capacitive and oxygen evolution behaviors of LDH@PANI nanohybrids

Low-overpotential layered hydroxides(LDHs)with high theoretical capacity are promising electrodes for supercapaterry and oxygen evolution reaction;however,the low electronic conductivity and insufficient active sites of bulk LDHs increase the internal resistance and reduce the capacity and oxygen-production efficiency of electrodes.Herein,we prepared a polyaniline-coated Ni-Co-layered double hydroxide intercalated with MoO_(4)^(2−)(M-LDH@PANI)composite electrode using a two-step method.As the amount of MoO_(4)^(2−)in the LDH increases,acicular microspheres steadily evolve into flaky microspheres with a high surface area,providing more active electrochemical sites.Moreover,the amorphous PANI coating of M-LDH boosts the electronic conductivity of the composite electrode.Accordingly,the M-LDH@PANI at an appropriate level of MoO_(4)^(2−)exhibits significantly enhanced energy storage and catalytic performance.Experimental analyses and theoretical calculations reveal that a small amount of MoO_(4)^(2−)is conducive to the expansion of LDH interlayer spacing,while an excessive amount of MoO_(4)^(2−)combines with the H atoms of LDH,thus competing with OH^(−),resulting in reduced electrochemical performance.Moreover,M-LDH flaky microspheres can efficiently modulate deprotonation energy,greatly accelerating surface redox reactions.This study provides an explanation for an unconventional mechanism,and a method for the modification of LDH-based materials for anion intercalation.

Supercapacitors and Battery Energy Management Based on New European Driving Cycle

This paper presents a new strategy of embedded energy management between battery and supercapacitors （SC） for hybrid electric vehicles （HEV） applications. This proposal is due to the present trend in the field, knowing that the major drawback of the HEV is the autonomy problem. Thus, using supercapacitors and battery with a good energy management improves the HEV performances. The main contribution of this paper is focused on DC-bus voltage and currents control strategies based on polynomial controller. These strategies are implemented in PICI8F4431 microcontroller for DC/DC converters control. Due to reasons of cost and available components （no optimized）, such as the battery and power semiconductors （IGBT）, the experimental tests are carried out in reduced scale （2.7 kW）. Through some simulations and experimental results obtained in reduced scale, the authors present an improved energy management strategy for HEV.

Recent advances in materials and device technologies for aqueous hybrid supercapacitors

Aqueous hybrid supercapacitors(AHSCs)offer potential safety and eco-friendliness compared with conventional electrochemical energy storage devices that use toxic and flammable organic electrolytes.They can serve as the bridge between aqueous batteries and aqueous supercapacitors by combining the advantages of high energy of the battery electrode and high power as well as long lifespan of the capacitive electrode.Over the past few decades,extensive research efforts have been devoted to developing advanced materials and fascinating device architectures for AHSCs.However,further development related to the compatibilities between the battery-type electrode and capacitive electrode remains stagnant mainly due to discrepancy encountered in terms of reaction kinetics and capacity.This review focuses on the recent progress made in the field of AHSCs via elucidating the main concepts on the design of battery and capacitive electrodes and emerging electrolytes.In particular,ingenious AHSCs that possess either better flexibility toward materials selection or better device functionality such as those with“dual-ion”energy storage mechanism and non-polarity feature are also discussed.Recent advances and unresolved issues in multivalent ion hybrid devices(in particular,zinc-ion AHSCs)are further outlined.Finally,future research directions and challenges for AHSCs are presented,which are anticipated to deliver higher energy and demonstrate greater multifunctionalities for more breakthrough technology applications.

Graphene-based Li-ion hybrid supercapacitors with ultrahigh performance

There is a growing demand for hybrid supercapacitor systems to overcome the energy density limitation of existing-generation electric double layer capacitors （EDLCs）, leading to next generation-Ⅱ supercapacitors with minimum sacrifice in power density and cycle life. Here, an advanced graphene-based hybrid system, consisting of a graphene-inserted Li4Ti5O12 （LTO） composite anode （G-LTO） and a three-dimensional porous graphene-sucrose cathode, has been fabricated for the purpose of combining both the benefits of Li-ion batteries （energy source） and supercapacitors （power source）. Graphene-based materials play a vital role in both electrodes in respect of the high performance of the hybrid supercapacitor. For example, compared with the theoretical capacity of 175 mA-h.g-1 for pure LTO, the G-LTO nanocomposite delivered excellent reversible capacities of 207, 190, and 176 mA·1h·g-1 at rates of 0.3, 0.5, and 1 C, respectively, in the potential range 1.0-2.5 V vs. Li/Li＋; these are among the highest values for LTO-based nano- composites at the same rates and potential range. Based on this, an optimized hybrid supercapacitor was fabricated following the standard industry procedure; this displayed an ultrahigh energy density of 95 Wh·kg-1 at a rate of 0.4 C （2.5 h） over a wide voltage range （0-3 V）, and still retained an energy density of 32 Wh·kg-1 at a high rate of up to 100 C, equivalent to a full discharge in 36 s, which is exceptionally fast for hybrid supercapacitors. The excellent performance of this Li-ion hybrid supercapacitor indicates that graphene-based materials may indeed play a significant role in next-generation supercapacitors with excellent electrochemical performance.

Filling and unfilling carbon capsules with transition metal oxide nanoparticles for Li-ion hybrid supercapacitors:towards hundred grade energy density

Li-ion hybrid supercapacitors （Li-HECs） facilitate effective combination of the advantages of supercapacitors and Li-ion batteries （LIBs）. However, challenges remain in designing and preparing suitable anode and cathode materials, which often require tedious and expensive procedures. Herein, we demonstrated that hollow N-doped carbon capsules （HNC） with and without a Fe304 nanoparticle core can respectively function as the anode and the cathode in very-high-performance Li-HECs. The Fe3Oa@NC anode exhibited a high reversible specific capacity exceeding 1530 mA h g^-1 at 100 mA g^-1 and excellent rate capability （45% capacity retention from 0.1 to 5 A g^-1） and cycle stability （〉97% retention after 100 cycles）. Moreover, high rate performance was achieved in a full-cell using the HNC cathode. By combining the respective structural advantages of the components, the hybrid device with Fe3Oa@NC//HN C exhibited a remark- able energy density of 185 W h kg^-1 at a power density of 39 W kg^-1. The hybrid device furnished a battery-inaccessible power density of 28 kW kg^-1 with rapid charging/discharging within 9 s at an energy density of 95 W h kg^-1.

Role of binary metal chalcogenides in extending the limits of energy storage systems:Challenges and possible solutions

Binary metal chalcogenides(BMCs)have shown better electrochemical performance compared with their mono metal counterparts owing to their abundant phase interfaces,higher active sites,faster electrochemical kinetics and higher electronic conductivity.Nevertheless,their performance still undergoes adverse decline during electrochemical processes mainly due to poor intrinsic ionic conductivities,large volume expansions,and structural agglomeration and fracture.To tackle these problems,various strategies have been applied to engineer the BMC nanostructures to obtain optimized electrode materials.However,the lack of understanding of the electrochemical response of BMCs still hinders their large-scale application.This review not only highlights the recent progress and development in the preparation of BMC-based electrode materials but also explains the kinetics to further understand the relation between structure and performance.It will also explain the engineering of BMCs through nanostructuring and formation of their hybrid structures with various carbonaceous materials and three-dimensional(3 D)templates.The review will discuss the detailed working mechanism of BMC-based nanostructures in various electrochemical energy storage(EES)systems including supercapacitors,metal-ion batteries,metal-air batteries,and alkaline batteries.In the end,major challenges and prospective solutions for the development of BMCs in EES devices are also outlined.We believe that the current review will provide a guideline for tailoring BMCs for better electrochemical devices.
