“…S1 and S2). After the SIHCs was assembled, it works as follows: During the charging process, Na + ions are inserted the quasi-graphitic layers of NTHC and ClO 4 − ions are adsorbed on the surface of the APDC; during the discharge process, Na + ions are removed from the graphite layers of NTHC and ClO 4 − ions are desorbed from the surface of APDC [37].…”

Sodium ion hybrid capacitors (SIHCs) are of great concern in large-scale energy storage applications due to their good energy-and-power characteristic, as well as abundant reserves and low cost of sodium. However, the sluggish faradaic kinetics of anode materials severely limit the overall electrochemical performance of SIHC devices. Herein, we report an application of nanotube-like hard carbon (NTHC) anode material prepared by high-temperature carbonization (1150°C) of polyaniline (PANI) nanotubes for high-performance SIHCs. As a result, the assembled sodium ion half-cell with NTHC shows a high reversible capacity of 419.5 mA h g . Within the potential range of 1.5-3.5 V, the SIHCs display an outstanding cycling stability tested at 2 A g −1 with a good capacity retention of 82.5% even after 12,000 cycles.

storage device, lithium ion batteries can provide high energy but usually suffer from a low power rate and short life span. To overcome these drawbacks, researchers propose the so-called metal-ion capacitors, or hybrid batteries, which combine a battery anode and a capacitor electrode in order to achieve tradeoff between conventional battery and supercapacitor. [6][7][8] It is expected that such hybrid system delivers a capacitor-like fast charge/ discharge rate and battery-like high capacity. Since the first introduction in 2001, great progress has been achieved in the field of hybrid lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) through better understanding of the charge storage mechanism and the development of highperformance nanostructured materials. In a LIC, the capacitive cathode is typically a carbonaceous material that enables fast charge− discharge processes, while the reported battery-type anode includes Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 , [9,10] graphite, [11] TiO 2 , [12] MnO, [13] and LiVO 3 . [14] Sodium-ion batteries are becoming one of most promising battery technologies for the foreseeable grid-scale applications, because of more earth-abundant sodium source and their similar chemistry to that of the existing lithium-ion batteries. [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] Despite the potential low-cost, constructing hybrid sodium ion capacitors (NICs) faces more challenge because most Na host materials have a rather sluggish kinetic due to the large Na ion sizes. Research on NICs began in early 2012, [23] and was focused on improving the power capability of the anode in order to match the fast kinetics of the capacitive cathode. Strategies to increase sodium ion (Na + ) and electron (e − ) transport kinetics of NIC electrodes reported so far include: (1) developing new electrode materials (such as 2D MXene Ti 2 C, [24] V 2 C), [25] (2) constructing more conductive electrode structures by hybridizing with carbon (such as NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /rGO, [26] C@NVP, [27] Nb 2 O 5 @C/rGO, [28] TiO 2 mesocages@rGO, [29] and (3) shortening the ion diffusion and electron transport lengths by rational designing nanostructures (such as TiO 2 nanospheres, [30] Ti(O,N) nanowires, [31] Na 2 Ti 3 O 7 nanosheets [32] ). Despite these efforts, these reported anodes of NIC still have relatively limited rate performance and especially low Na-ion storage capacity. Among other reasons, most of these electrode materials are powder samples, which require substantial amount of conductive additives (such as super P, 10-20 wt%) and binder in order to make compact films. This not only weakens the electron transport but also unable to meet the flexibility requirement.Achieving high-performance Na-ion capacitors (NICs) has the particular challenge of matching both capacity and kinetics between the anode and cathode. Here a high-power NIC full device constructed from 2D metal-organic framework (MOFs) array is reported as the reactive template. The MOF array is converted to N-doped mesoporous carbon nanosheets (mp-CNSs), which are then uniformly encapsulated with VO 2 and Na...

“…It should be noted that CV is measured after five galvanostatic cycles to stabilize the formation of the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film. The CV curve of the RGO cathode shows a broad and rectangular-shaped profile during the reduction/oxidation process, which are indicative of typical electric double-layer capacitive (EDLC) behavior51. The shape of the CV curve indicates that the reaction mechanism in the RGO cathode is confined to the surface reactions but is not diffusion-limited52.…”

We report the feasibility of using reduced graphene oxide (RGO) as a cost-effective and high performance cathode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Graphene oxide is synthesized by a modified Hummers’ method and reduced using a solid-state microwave irradiation method. The RGO electrode delivers an exceptionally stable discharge capacity of 240 mAh g−1 with a stable long cycling up to 1000 cycles. A discharge capacity of 134 mAh g−1 is obtained at a high current density of 600 mA g−1, and the electrode recovers a capacity of 230 mAh g−1 when the current density is reset to 15 mA g−1 after deep cycling, thus demonstrating the excellent stability of the electrode with sodium de/intercalation. The successful use of the RGO electrode demonstrated in this study is expected to facilitate the emergence of low-cost and sustainable carbon-based materials for SIB cathode applications.
