However, as for most reported MSCs, the unsatisfactory areal energy density (<10 µWh cm −2 ) still hinders their practical applications. Herein, a new-type Zn-ion hybrid MSC with ultrahigh areal energy density and long-term durability is demonstrated. Benefiting from fast ion adsorption/desorption on the capacitor-type activatedcarbon cathode and reversible Zn stripping/plating on the battery-type electrodeposited Zn-nanosheet anode, the fabricated Zn-ion hybrid MSCs exhibit remarkable areal capacitance of 1297 mF cm −2 at 0.16 mA cm −2 (259.4 F g −1 at a current density of 0.05 A g −1 ), landmark areal energy density (115.4 µWh cm −2 at 0.16 mW cm −2 ), and a superb cycling stability without noticeable decay after 10 000 cycles. This work will inspire the fabrication and development of new high-performance microenergy devices based on novel device design.

High-performance solid-state electrolytes with healability to repair mechanical damages are important for the fabrication of Li-ion batteries (LIBs) with enhanced safety and prolonged service life. In this study, we present the fabrication of healable, highly conductive, flexible, and nonflammable ionogel electrolytes for use in LIBs by loading ionic liquids and Li salts within a hydrogen-bonded supramolecular poly(ionic liquid) copolymer network. The ionogel electrolytes exhibit ionic conductivities as high as 10 −3 S/cm, which is comparable to the conventional liquid electrolytes. The Li/LiFePO 4 battery assembled with the ionogel membrane exhibits excellent cycling performance and delivers a steady high discharge capacity of 147.5 mA h g −1 and Coulombic efficiency of 99.7% after 120 cycles at the charge/discharge rate of 0.2 C. Importantly, the ionogel membranes can heal damages outside or inside a battery because of the reversible nature of the supramolecular interactions between the components. The damaged ionogel membranes after being healed can effectively restore the original performance of the LIBs.
