“…This ASC also shows good specific energy for a high power density at 10 mA cm −2 . These values of ASC are more promising than previously reported ASC device, such as VO x //VN‐ASC (2.1 Wh kg −1 ), [14b] MnO 2 //polyaniline (13.5 Wh kg −1 ), [ 35 ] MnO 2 //Fe 2 O 3 (17.3 Wh kg −1 ), [ 36 ] Bi 2 O 3 //activated carbon (AC) (10.2 Wh kg −1 ), [ 37 ] WO 3 //AC (11.9 Wh kg −1 ), [ 38 ] Ni‐CoO//AC (12 Wh kg −1 ), [ 39 ] CuS//AC (15.06 Wh kg −1 ), [ 40 ] graphene//Ni 6 MnO 8 (16.5 Wh kg −1 ), [ 41 ] AC//boron nitride/carbon (17 Wh kg −1 ), [ 42 ] AC//CaMoO 4 (18.68 Wh kg −1 ), [ 43 ] AC//Ni 3 S 2 /multi‐walled carbon nanotube‐carbon nanoparticle (19.8 Wh kg −1 ), [ 44 ] and Ni‐doped Co–Co 2 N//porous carbon (20.40 Wh kg −1 ).

In current scenario, for fast working appliances, scientists mostly work to develop and design the advanced energy storage devices. Batteries, rechargeable batteries, conventional capacitor, and supercapacitor (SC) are some of the devices, which are used nowadays in several applications to store electrical energy. [1] Batteries have high specific energy; however, main issue with battery is that it has the low specific power compared with the SC. On the contrary, SCs have high specific power and discharge maximum amount of energy in a very short duration, which we need for new generation fast devices and applications wherein high and fast power output is required. [2] A full SC device is just like the battery, made up of four parts: positive electrode, negative electrode, electrolyte, and separator. Out of these four components, electrode materials mainly decide cost and performance of the SC. In this scenario, nanostructured materials proved to be a worthy choice for better performance SC. [3] Hence, intensive research has been devoted toward designing and fabrication of high-quality nanostructured electrode materials. For instance, recently, different types of transition metal compound-based electrode have attracted enormous attention due to their unique physio-chemical properties, such as high electrical conductivity, high hardness, electrochemical stability, and wear and corrosion resistances. [4] These properties of transition metal compound make them a promising and active electrode material to be used for SCs. To make SC more effective and promising energy device, researchers are working on the various kinds of transition metal compounds, such as oxides, carbides, phosphides, and nitrides. Out of these metal compounds, all have some advantages as well as disadvantages. In case of metal oxide-based electrodes, even though these electrodes show high capacitance value, the main problem is to have their relatively poor electrical conductivity, which, in turn, hinders their capacitive performance rate. [5] Non-oxide materials, such as metal sulfide and metal carbidebased active electrodes, have high electrical conductivity and hydrophilic nature. For instance, 1 T MoS 2 and Ti 3 C 2 , both the electrodes have the ultrahigh volumetric capacitance of 650 and 900 F cm À3 , respectively. However, these types of electrodes are restricted to have 1 V s À1 highest sweep rate. [6] On the other hand, transition-metal nitrides (TMNs), such as TiN, show high electrical conductivity compared with their respective metal carbides, which, in turn, offers high energy storage. [7] It has been confirmed that the electronic structure of metal host is strongly affected by introducing N (nitrogen) atoms. These metal nitrides attained great consideration as an electrode material for SC,

“…The electrochemical activity of h-BN upon forming a composite with conductive matrix possibly originates from altered oxidation state of N, which is ionically bonded to B atoms (Figure 20a-d). [339,343] Researchers have formulated a series of nanocomposites of h-BN with various materials such as GO, rGO, CNTs, and polyaniline (PANI) which can show interesting applications. [339,343] Among various combinations with h-BN, a supercapacitor device based on a nanohybrid of BN/CNT/PANI shows excellent performance since the uniform conformal coating of PANI on h-BN improves the overall conductivity of electrodes.…”

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) has emerged as a strong candidate for twodimensional (2D) material owing to its exciting optoelectrical properties combined with mechanical robustness, thermal stability, and chemical inertness. Super-thin h-BN layers have gained significant attention from the scientific community for many applications, including nanoelectronics, photonics, biomedical, anti-corrosion, and catalysis, among others. This review provides a systematic elaboration of the structural, electrical, mechanical, optical, and thermal properties of h-BN followed by a comprehensive account of stateof-the-art synthesis strategies for 2D h-BN, including chemical exfoliation, chemical, and physical vapor deposition, and other methods that have been successfully developed in recent years. It further elaborates a wide variety of processing routes developed for doping, substitution, functionalization, and combination with other materials to form heterostructures. Based on the extraordinary properties and thermal-mechanical-chemical stability of 2D h-BN, various potential applications of these structures are described.The ORCID identification number(s) for the author(s) of this article can be found under
