Electrochemical capacitors, also known as supercapacitors, are energy storage devices that fill the gap between batteries and dielectric capacitors. Thanks to their unique features, they have a key role to play in energy storage and harvesting, acting as a complement to or even a replacement of batteries which has already been achieved in various applications. One of the challenges in the supercapacitor area is to increase their energy density. Some recent discoveries regarding ion adsorption in microporous carbon exhibiting pores in the nanometre range can help in designing the next generation of high-energy-density supercapacitors.

ABSTRACTThe present report is dedicated to a study of possible ways of increasing the energy density of the supercapacitor and thus, bridging the gap between the supercapacitor and the battery. Chemical functionalization of carbon nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes, activated carbon cloth, and activated carbon powder used as supercapacitor electrodes as well as novel aqueous electrolytes with the electrochemical window of up to 2 V are described. The hybrid approaches to energy storage mechanism in electrochemical energy storage devices are discussed. The first experimental results on the discussed hybrid energy storage devices are presented.

Redox-active covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are promising materials for energy storage devices because of their high density of redox sites, permanent and controlled porosity, high surface areas, and tunable structures. However, the low electrochemical accessibility of their redox-active sites has limited COF-based devices either to thin films (<250 nm) grown on conductive substrates, or to thicker films (1 µm) when a conductive polymer is introduced into the COF pores. Electrical energy storage devices constructed from bulk microcrystalline COF powders, eliminating the need for both thin-film formation and conductive polymer guests, would offer both improved capacity and potentially scalable fabrication processes. Here we report on the synthesis and electrochemical evaluation of a new phenazine-based 2D COF (DAPH-TFP COF), as well as its composite with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). Both the COF and its PEDOT composite were evaluated as powders that were solution-cast onto bulk electrodes serving as current collectors. The unmodified DAPH-TFP COF exhibited excellent electrical access to its redox sites, even without PEDOT functionalization, and outperformed the PEDOT composite of a previously reported anthraquinone-based system. Devices containing DAPH-TFP COF were able to deliver both high energy (250 Wh/kg) and power densities (2950 W/kg), validating the promise of unmodified redox-active COFs that are easily incorporated into electrical energy storage devices.
