Interlayer Hydrogen‐Bonded Metal Porphyrin Frameworks/MXene Hybrid Film with High Capacitance for Flexible All‐Solid‐State Supercapacitors

2D metal‐porphyrin frameworks (MPFs) are attractive for advanced energy storage devices. However, the inferior conductivity and low structural stability of MPFs seriously limit their application as flexible free‐standing electrodes with high performance. Here, for the first time, an interlayer hydrogen‐bonded MXene/MPFs film is proposed to overcome these disadvantages by intercalation of highly conductive MXene nanosheets into MPFs nanosheets via a vacuum‐assisted filtration technology. The alternant insertion of MXene and MPFs affords 3D interconnected “MPFs‐to‐MXene‐to‐MPFs” conductive networks to accelerate the ionic/electronic transport rates. Meanwhile, the interlayer hydrogen bonds (F···H? O and O···H? O) contribute a high chemical stability due to a favorable tolerance to volume change caused by phase separation and structural collapse during the charge/discharge process. The synergistic effect makes MXene/MPFs film deliver a capacitance of 326.1 F g^?1 at 0.1 A g^?1, 1.64 F cm^?2 at 1 mA cm^?2, 694.2 F cm^?3 at 1 mA cm^?3 and a durability of about 30 000 cycles. The flexible symmetric supercapacitor shows an areal capacitance of 408 mF cm^?2, areal energy density of 20.4 µW h cm^?2, and capacitance retention of 95.9% after 7000 cycles. This work paves an avenue for the further exploration of 2D MOFs in flexible energy storage devices.     

Ultrahigh‐Areal‐Capacitance Flexible Supercapacitor Electrodes Enabled by Conformal P3MT on Horizontally Aligned Carbon‐Nanotube Arrays

Nanocarbon electronic conductors combined with pseudocapacitive materials, such as conducting polymers, display outstanding electrochemical properties and mechanical flexibility. These characteristics enable the fabrication of flexible electrodes for energy‐storage devices; that is, supercapacitors that are wearable or can be formed into shapes that are easily integrated into vehicle parts. To date, most nanocarbon materials such as nanofibers are randomly dispersed as a network in a flexible matrix. This morphology inhibits ion transport, particularly under the high current density necessary for devices requiring high power density. Novel flexible densified horizontally aligned carbon nanotube arrays (HACNTs) with controlled nanomorphology for improved ion transport are introduced and combined with conformally coated poly(3‐methylthiophene) (P3MT) conducting polymer to impart pseudocapacitance. The resulting P3MT/HACNT nanocomposite electrodes exhibit high areal capacitance of 3.1 F cm^?2 at 5 mA cm^?2, with areal capacitance remaining at 1.8 F cm^?2 even at a current density of 200 mA cm^?2. The asymmetric supercapacitor cell also delivers more than 1–2 orders of magnitude improvement in both areal energy and power density over state‐of‐the‐art cells. Furthermore, little change in cell performance is observed under high strain, demonstrating the mechanical and electrochemical stability of the electrodes.     

Nitrogen‐Doped Carbon Encapsulated Mesoporous Vanadium Nitride Nanowires as Self‐Supported Electrodes for Flexible All‐Solid‐State Supercapacitors

Flexible 3D nanoarchitectures have received tremendous interest recently because of their potential applications in flexible/wearable energy storage devices. Herein, 3D intertwined nitrogen‐doped carbon encapsulated mesoporous vanadium nitride nanowires (MVN@NC NWs) are investigated as thin, lightweight, and self‐supported electrodes for flexible supercapacitors (SCs). The MVN NWs have abundant active sites accessible to charge storage, and the N‐doped carbon shell suppresses electrochemical dissolution of the inner MVN NWs in an alkaline electrolyte, leading to excellent capacitive properties. The flexible MVN@NC NWs film electrode delivers a high areal capacitance of 282 mF cm⁻² and exhibits excellent long‐term stability with 91.8% capacitance retention after 12 000 cycles in a KOH electrolyte. All‐solid‐state flexible SCs assembled by sandwiching two flexible MVN@NC NWs film electrodes with alkaline poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), sodium polyacrylate, and KOH gel electrolyte boast a high volumetric capacitance of 10.9 F cm⁻³, an energy density of 0.97 mWh cm⁻³, and a power density of 2.72 W cm⁻³ at a current density of 0.051 A cm⁻³ based on the entire cell. By virtue of the excellent mechanical flexibility, high capacitance, and large energy/power density, the self‐supported MVN@NC NWs paper‐like electrodes have large potential applications in portable and wearable flexible electronics.

The large‐scale application of supercapacitors (SCs) for portable electronics is restricted by low energy density and cycling stability. To alleviate the limitations, a unique interface engineering strategy is suggested through atomic layer deposition (ALD) and nitrogen plasma. First, commercial carbon cloth (CC) is treated with nitrogen plasma and later inorganic NiCo₂O₄ (NCO)/NiO core–shell nanowire arrays are deposited on nitrogen plasma–treated CC (NCC) to fabricate the ultrahigh stable SC. An ultrathin layer of NiO deposited on the NCO nanowire arrays via conformal ALD plays a vital role in stabilizing the NCO nanowires for thousands of electrochemical cycles. The optimized NCC/NCO/NiO core–shell electrode exhibits a high specific capacitance of 2439 F g^?1 with a remarkable cycling stability (94.2% over 20 000 cycles). Benefiting from these integrated merits, the foldable solid‐state SCs are fabricated with excellent NCC/NCO/NiO core–shell nanowire array electrodes. The fabricated SC device delivers a high energy density of 72.32 Wh kg^?1 at a specific capacitance of 578 F g^?1, with ultrasmall capacitance decline rate of 0.0003% per cycle over 10 000 charge–discharge cycles. Overall, this strategy offers a new avenue for developing a new‐generation high‐energy, ultrahigh stable supercapacitor for real‐life applications.
