“…Electrochemical capacitors (ECs), often referred to as ultra- or supercapacitors, have gained prominence in energy storage/conversion devices in recent times owing to their many advantages, including safety, fast charge/discharge characteristics, higher power density, longer lifecycle, and minimal fabrication/maintenance charge. , In recent years, numerous research groups have proved that transition metal oxides (TMOs) are considered as likely alternative electrode materials for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and ECs/batteries applications. , Among the series of M–M1 (M, M1 = Co, Ni, Cu, Mo, Fe, and Ni) binary alloys, Co–Ni-based ones have been widely established with attractive electrochemical properties due to the synergistic interactions of Co and Ni, improving the electrical conductivity and boosting the redox reactions in SCs. , CoNiO 2 attracts much attention due to its strong redox activity because of the coexistence of the Ni and Co species, natural abundance, friendly environment, high theoretical capacitance, and sample preparation. , Several strategies/approaches were utilized to design/prepare some electrocatalysts with unique morphology structures and active sites, including various forms of nanoparticles such as cubes, sheets, wires, tubes, and flakes, to generate the active sites, resulting in improving the electrochemical performances. , For the rock salt (NaCl)-type NiCoO 2 crystal structure, both Ni 2+ and Co 2+ coexist in any molar ratio in the crystal structure. These ions are sited in the octahedral voids within the face-centered cubic (FCC) arrangement of oxide ions (O 2– ) .…”
