ABSTRACTThrough the use of nanostructures and nanocomposites, the electrochemical activity of metal fluoride materials was opened as potential candidates as next generation high energy density positive electrodes for Li batteries. This class of materials, utilizing FeF3 as an example, is shown to exhibit good reversible behavior of approximately 200 mAh/g in the 3V region. The specific capacity is extended to 600 mAh/g when the discharge is extended to take into account the additional specific capacity associated with a 2V plateau. Through the use of XRD, SAED and high resolution TEM, the 2V reaction mechanism was associated to a reversible metal fluoride conversion mechanism. It is shown that LiF + Fe nanocomposite can be utilized as initial components in order to make the technology suitable for Li-ion applications. Although exhibiting relatively poor rate capabilities at this initial stage, reversible conversion metal fluorides enable for the first time the utilization of all the redox states of the constituent metal in a reversible manner in the positive electrode. This translates to 4X the specific capacity and double the energy density of today's state of the art LiCoO2.

Transition metal compounds such as nickel cobalt sulfides (Ni–Co–S) are promising electrode materials for energy storage devices such as supercapacitors owing to their high electrochemical performance and good electrical conductivity. Developing ultrathin nanostructured materials is critical to achieving high electrochemical performance, because they possess rich active sites for electrochemical reactions, shortening the transport path of ions in the electrolyte during the charge/discharge processes. This paper describes the synthesis of ultrathin (around 10 nm) flower-like Ni1− x Co x S2 nanoflakes by using templated NiCo oxides. The as-prepared Ni1− x Co x S2 material retained the morphology of the initial NiCo oxide material and exhibited a much improved electrochemical performance. The Ni1− x Co x S2 electrode material exhibited a maximum specific capacity of 1066.8 F·g−1 (533.4 C·g−1) at 0.5 A·g−1 and a capacity retention of 63.4% at 20 A·g−1 in an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC). The ASC showed a superior energy density of 100.5 Wh·kg−1 (at a power density of 1.5 kW·kg−1), an ultrahigh power density of 30 kW·kg−1 (at an energy density of 67.5 Wh·kg−1) and excellent cycling stability. This approach can be a low-cost way to mass-produce high-performance electrode materials for supercapacitors.

AbstractLithium-ion capacitors are envisaged as promising energy-storage devices to simultaneously achieve a large energy density and high-power output at quick charge and discharge rates. However, the mismatched kinetics between capacitive cathodes and faradaic anodes still hinder their practical application for high-power purposes. To tackle this problem, the electron and ion transport of both electrodes should be substantially improved by targeted structural design and controllable chemical doping. Herein, nitrogen-enriched graphene frameworks are prepared via a large-scale and ultrafast magnesiothermic combustion synthesis using CO2 and melamine as precursors, which exhibit a crosslinked porous structure, abundant functional groups and high electrical conductivity (10524 S m−1). The material essentially delivers upgraded kinetics due to enhanced ion diffusion and electron transport. Excellent capacities of 1361 mA h g−1 and 827 mA h g−1 can be achieved at current densities of 0.1 A g−1 and 3 A g−1, respectively, demonstrating its outstanding lithium storage performance at both low and high rates. Moreover, the lithium-ion capacitor based on these nitrogen-enriched graphene frameworks displays a high energy density of 151 Wh kg−1, and still retains 86 Wh kg−1 even at an ultrahigh power output of 49 kW kg−1. This study reveals an effective pathway to achieve synergistic kinetics in carbon electrode materials for achieving high-power lithium-ion capacitors.

Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) have been widely explored for energy storage. Nevertheless, achieving good energy density, satisfactory power density, and stable cycle life is still challenging. For this study, we fabricated a novel LIC with a NiO-rGO composite as a negative material and commercial activated carbon (AC) as a positive material for energy storage. The NiO-rGO//AC system utilizes NiO nanoparticles uniformly distributed in rGO to achieve a high specific capacity (with a current density of 0.5 A g−1 and a charge capacity of 945.8 mA h g−1) and uses AC to provide a large specific surface area and adjustable pore structure, thereby achieving excellent electrochemical performance. In detail, the NiO-rGO//AC system (with a mass ratio of 1:3) can achieve a high energy density (98.15 W h kg−1), a high power density (10.94 kW kg−1), and a long cycle life (with 72.1% capacity retention after 10,000 cycles). This study outlines a new option for the manufacture of LIC devices that feature both high energy and high power densities.

NiCo2O4 as an electrode material for supercapacitors (SCs) has been studied by a host of researchers due to its unique structural characteristics and high capacitance. However, its performance has not yet reached the level of practical applications.it is an effective strategy to synthesize composite electrode materials for tackling the problem. Herein, NiCo2O4@ZnCo2O4 as a novel core–shell composite electrode material has been fabricated through a two-step simple hydrothermal method. The as-prepared sample can be directly used as cathode material of a supercapacitor, and its specific capacitance is 463.1 C/g at 1 A/g. An assembled capacitor has an energy density of 77 Wh·kg−1 at 2700 W·kg−1, and after 8000 cycles, 88% of the initial capacity remains.
