Owing to their unique features such as high surface area, rich electroactive sites, ultrathin thickness, excellent flexibility and mechanical stability and multiple surface functionalities enables outstanding electrochemical response which provides high energy and power density supercapacitors based on them. Also, the Van der Waals gap between layered 2D materials encourages the fast ion transport with shorter ion diffusion path. 2D materials such as MXenes, graphene, TMDs, and 2D metal–organic frame work, TMOs/TMHs materials, have been described with regard to their electrochemical properties for MSCs. We have summarized the recent progress in MSC based on well-developed 2D materials-based electrodes and its potential outcomes with different architectures including interdigitated pattern, stacked MSC and 3D geometries for on-chip electronics. This chapter provides a brief overview of the recent developments in the field of 2D material based all-solid-state microsupercapacitors (MSCs). A brief note on the MSC device configuration and microfabrication methods for the microelectrodes have been discussed. Taking advantage of certain 2D materials such as 2D MXenes, TMDs, TMOs/TMHs that provide good surface chemistry, tunable chemical and physical properties, intercalation, surface modification (functionalization), heterostructures, phase transformations, defect engineering etc. are beneficial for enhancement in pseudocapacitance as it promotes the redox activity.
