In nano-sized FeWO<sub>4</sub> electrode material, both Fe and W metal cations are suspected to be involved in the fast and reversible Faradaic surface reactions giving rise to its pseudocapacitive signature. As for any other pseudocapacitive materials, to fully understand the charge storage mechanism, a deeper insight into the involvement of the electroactive cations still has to be provided. The present paper illustrates how operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) has been successfully used to collect data of unprecedented quality allowing to elucidate the complex electrochemical behavior of this multicationic pseudocapacitive material. Moreover, these in-depth experiments were obtained in real time upon cycling the electrode, which allowed investigating the reactions occurring in the material within a realistic timescale, which is compatible with electrochemical capacitors practical operation. Both Fe K-edge and W L<sub>3</sub>-edge measurements point out the involvement of the Fe<sup>3+</sup>/Fe<sup>2+</sup> redox couple in the charge storage while W<sup>6+</sup> acts as a spectator cation. The result of this study enables to unambiguously discriminate between the Faradaic and capacitive behavior of FeWO4. Beside these valuable insights toward the full description of the charge storage mechanism in FeWO<sub>4</sub>, this paper demonstrates the potential of operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy to enable a better material engineering for new high capacitance pseudocapacitive electrode materials.

<p>This literature review explains the construction and charge storage mechanisms in Lithium-ion batteries. Further, it elaborates on the electrode reactions in Lithium-ion batteries, and commonly used electrode materials and their structures. Different types of Lithium-based batteries’ electrochemical performance were compared, in addition to other relevant differentiators. The energy storage mechanism in Supercapacitors is briefly touched upon – and the electrochemical performance of supercapacitors is compared with that of lithium-ion batteries. Battery supercapacitor hybrids are introduced, with a brief section on their development over the past two decades following explanations of the charge storage mechanism and construction of battery supercapacitor hybrids. Battery supercapacitor hybrids are then compared with existing electrochemical energy storage mechanisms and finally, two types of battery supercapacitor hybrids were discussed.</p>

<p>Rechargeable aqueous aluminium batteries are the subject of growing interest, but the charge storage mechanisms at manganese oxide-based cathodes remain poorly understood with as many mechanisms as studies. Here, we use an original <i>in situ</i> spectroelectrochemical methodology to unambiguously demonstrate that the reversible proton-coupled MnO<sub>2</sub>-to-Mn<sup>2+</sup> conversion is the main charge storage mechanism occurring at MnO<sub>2</sub> cathodes over a range of slightly acidic Al<sup>3+</sup>-based aqueous electrolytes. In Zn/MnO<sub>2</sub> assemblies, this mechanism is associated with high gravimetric capacity and discharge potentials, up to 560 mAh·g<sup>-1</sup> and 1.76 V respectively, attractive efficiencies (<i>CE</i> > 98.5 % and <i>EE</i> > 80%) and excellent cyclability (> 750 cycles at 10 A·g<sup>-1</sup>). Finally, we conducted a critical analysis of the data previously published on MnO<sub>x</sub> cathodes in Al<sup>3+</sup>-based aqueous electrolytes to conclude on a universal charge storage mechanism, <i>i.e.</i>, the reversible electrodissolution/electrodeposition of MnO<sub>2</sub>.<i></i></p>
