“…Recently, Tu et al synthesized boron carbon nitrogen (BCN) nanofibers via CVD followed by depositing molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) to produce a core-shell structure electrocatalyst (MoS 2 /BCN). 70 MoS 2 /BCN had a uniform nanofiber structure, which can provide a large surface area for ion adsorption, desorption and diffusion. As a result, MoS 2 /BCN displayed a superior catalytic activity for the HER with a low overpotential of 85 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm À2 in acidic medium.…”

Supercapacitors have emerged as a promising energy storage technology due to their high‐power density, fast charging/discharging capabilities, and long cycle life. Moreover, innovative electrode materials are extensively explored to enhance the performance, mainly the energy density of supercapacitors. Among the two‐dimensional (2D) supercapacitor electrodes, borocarbonitride (BCN) has sparked widespread curiosity owing to its exceptional tunable properties concerning the change in concentration of the constituent elements, along with an excellent alternative to graphene‐based electrodes. BCN, an advanced nanomaterial, possesses excellent electrical conductivity, chemical stability, and a large specific surface area. These factors contribute to supercapacitors' overall performance and reliability, making them a viable option to address the energy crisis. This review provides a detailed survey of BCN, its structural, electronic, chemical, magnetic, and mechanical properties, advanced synthesis methods, factors affecting the charge storage mechanism, and recent advances in BCN‐based supercapacitor electrodes. The review embarks on the scrupulous elaboration of ways to enhance the electrochemical properties of BCN through various innovative strategies followed by critical challenges and future perspectives. BCN, as an eminent electrode material, holds great potential to revolutionize the energy landscape and support the growing energy demands of the future.

“…The 1D physical structure of BCNNTs is advantageous in maintaining the structural integrity and resisting the damage caused by the swift adsorption/desorption of the electrolyte during long-period charge/discharge cycles at high temperatures, leading to an enhancement in the high-temperature cycle stability. Benefitting from the synergy between the high conductivity of BCNNTs and the lamellar structure of MoS 2 , Tu and co-workers manufactured a highly dense BCN nanofiber core with a MoS 2 shell for a high-performance supercapacitor (446.3 A g −1 at current density of 0.25 A g −1 ) [111]. In short, 1D BCN materials possess large SSA, high structural stability, and excellent mechanical strength, leading to an enhanced capacitance and electrical conductivity.…”

Supercapacitors are regarded as reliable energy storage devices to alleviate the energy crisis and environmental pollution. However, the relatively low capacitance and low energy density limit the practical application of supercapacitors. In this context, boron carbon nitride (BCN) nanomaterials have been extensively studied in the past decade due to their chemical and thermal stability, high mechanical strength, as well as tunable bandgap. The specific capacitance and energy density of supercapacitors can be significantly improved by fabricating nanostructured BCN-based electrode materials. In this review, the recent advances in the application of BCN-based materials in supercapacitors is presented. Strategies such as structure design, porosity/defect engineering, and hybrid nanostructure construction to boost the electrochemical performance of BCN-based materials are provided and, finally, promising research directions for novel energy storage materials are proposed.
