Summary Two‐dimensional material MXenes owing to their hydrophilic nature, surface termination, and high conductivity can be used in the energy storage device as an anode material. However, poor ion transfer and less available intercalating sites due to self‐stacking of MXene sheets prevent comprehensive utilization of their electrochemical properties. To resolve this problem, a facile method is introduced in this paper to disperse MXene sheets onto reduced graphene oxide sheets to form a porous structure by enhancing electrostatic interactions between two components, which can facilitate ion movement and provide access of ions to more intercalating sites. This hybrid material delivered a capacity of 357 mAh g−1 at 0.05 A g−1 as anode in case of lithium‐ion batteries. Furthermore, the hybrid material showed exceptional stability even after 1000 cycles at 1 A g−1. Current work offers an easy approach for the synthesis of high‐performance niobium carbide‐based hybrid energy storage materials.

Electrode imbalance" is one of the major issues that hinders the potential performance of asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs), which arises mainly due to the huge dissimilarities of the electrodes microstructures. Herein, an "allgraphene" electrode system is designed by simple chemo-thermal modification of graphene oxide. Chemically functionalized graphene (FG) cathode and two anodes based on thermally reduced graphene oxide (TrGO) and iodine-doped graphene (IG) prepared via simple synthetic routes, followed by assembling into ASCs. The ASC comprising FG cathode-IG anode delivers phenomenally high energy-power (E-P) density (91 W h kg −1 and 424.95 W kg −1 ) and a good capacitance retention after 10 000 cycles. This outcome is accredited to the similar chemistry of electrodes resulting in a minimal electrode imbalance.The developed scheme has capacity to be employed as all-graphene hybrid energy storage system outputting enhanced performance and cyclic stability.asymmetric supercapacitor, all-graphene electrode system, functionalized graphene, iodinedoped graphene, ultra-high energy density
