Recent progress in metal oxide-based electrode materials for safe and sustainable variants of supercapacitors.

A significant amount of energy can be produced using renewable energy sources; however, storing massive amounts of energy poses a substantial obstacle to energy production. Economic crisis has led to rapid developments in electrochemical (EC) energy storage devices (EESDs), especially rechargeable batteries, fuel cells, and supercapacitors (SCs), which are effective for energy storage systems. Researchers have lately suggested that among the various EESDs, the SC is an effective alternate for energy storage due to the presence of the following characteristics: SCs offer high-power density (PD), improvable energy density (ED), fast charging/discharging, and good cyclic stability. This review highlighted and analyzed the concepts of supercapacitors and types of supercapacitors on the basis of electrode materials, highlighted the several feasible synthesis processes for preparation of metal oxide (MO) nanoparticles, and discussed the morphological effects of MOs on the electrochemical performance of the devices. In this review, we primarily focus on pseudo-capacitors for SCs, which mainly contain MOs and their composite materials, and also highlight their future possibilities as a useful application of MO-based materials in supercapacitors. The novelty of MO's electrode materials is primarily due to the presence of synergistic effects in the hybrid materials, rich redox activity, excellent conductivity, and chemical stability, making them excellent for SC applications.

Graphdiyne (GDY), which possess sp- and sp2-hybridized carbon and Dirac cones, offers unique physical and chemical properties, including an adjustable intrinsic bandgap, excellent charge carrier transfer efficiency, and superior conductivity compared to other carbon allotropes. These exceptional qualities of GDY and its derivatives have been successfully used in a variety of fields, including catalysis, energy, environmental protection, and biological applications. Herein, we focus on the potential application of GDY and its derivatives in the biomedical domain, including biosensing, biological protection, cancer therapy, and antibacterial agents, demonstrating how the biomimetic behavior of these materials can be a step forward in bridging the gap between nature and applications. Considering the excellent biocompatibility, solubility and selectivity of GDY and its derived materials, they have shown great potential as biosensing and bio-imaging materials. The unusual combination of properties in GDY has been used in biological applications such as "OFF-ON" DNA detection and enzymatic sensing, where GDY has a greater adsorption capacity than graphene and other 2D materials, resulting in increased sensitivity. GDY and its derivatives have also been used in cancer treatment due to their high doxorubicin (DOX) loading capacity (using-stacking) and photothermal conversion ability, and radiation protection since their initial biological use. The poor biodegradation rate of graphene demands the search for new nanomaterials. Accordingly, GDY has better biocompatibility and bio-safety than other 2D nanomaterials, especially graphene and its oxide, due to its absence of aggregation in the physiological environment. Thus, GDY-based nanomaterials have become promising candidates as bio-delivery carriers. Besides, GDY and GDY-based materials have also shown interesting applications in the fields of cell-culture, cell-growth and tissue engineering. Herein, we present a comprehensive review on the applications of GDY and its derivatives as biomedical materials, followed by their future perspectives. This review will provide an outlook for the application of graphene and its derivatives and may open up new horizons to inspire broader interests across various disciplines. Finally, the future prospects for GDY-based materials are examined for their potential biological use.

The discovery of graphene (G) attracted considerable attention to the study of other novel two-dimensional materials (2DMs), which is identified as modern day "alchemy" since researchers are converting the majority of promising periodic table elements into 2DMs. Among the family of 2DMs, the newly invented monoelemental, atomically thin 2DMs of groups IIIA-VIA, called "Xenes" (where, X = IIIA-VIA group elements, and "ene" is the Latin word for nanosheets (NSs)), are a very active area of research for the fabrication of future nanodevices with high speed, low cost and elevated efficiency. Currently, any novel structure of 2DMs from the typical Xenes will probably be applicable in electronic technology. Analysis of their possible highly sensitive synthesis and characterization present opportunities for theoretically examining proposed 2D-Xenes with atomic precision in ideal circumstances, thus providing theoretical predictions for experimental support. Several theoretically predicted and experimentally synthesized 2D-Xene materials have been investigated for the group-VIA elements (tellurene (2D-Te), and selenene (2D-Se)), which are similar to topological insulators (TIs), thus potentially rendering them suitable materials for application in upcoming nanodevices. Although the investigation and device application of these materials are still in their infancy, theoretical studies and a few experiment-based investigations have proven that they are complementary to conventional (i.e., layered bulk-derived) 2DMs. This review focuses on the synthesis of novel group-VIA Xenes (2D-Te and 2D-Se) and summarizes the current development in understanding their basic properties, with the current advancement in signifying device applications. Lastly, the future research prospects, further advanced applications and associated shortcomings of the group-VIA Xenes are summarized and highlighted.

In this paper, 2D borophene is synthesized through a liquid-phase exfoliation. The morphology and structure of as-prepared borophene are systemically analyzed, and the Z-scan is used to measure the nonlinear optical properties. It is found that the saturable absorber (SA) properties of borophene make it serve as an excellent broadband optical switch, which is strongly used for mode-locking in near- and mid-infrared laser systems. Ultrastable pulses with durations as short as 792 and 693 fs are successfully delivered at the central wavelengths of 1063 and 1560 nm, respectively. Furthermore, stable pulses at a wavelength of 1878 nm are demonstrated from a thulium mode-locked fiber laser based on the same borophene SA. This research reveals a significant potential for borophene used in lasers helping extending the frontiers of photonic technologies.

A MnO-CrN composite was obtained via the ammonolysis of the low-cost nitride precursors Cr(NO3)3·9H2O and Mn(NO3)2·4H2O at 800 °C for 8 h using a sol-gel method. The specific surface area of the synthesized powder was measured via BET analysis and it was found to be 262 m2 g-1. Regarding its application, the electrochemical sensing performance toward hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was studied via applying cyclic voltammetry (CV) and amperometry (i-t) analysis. The linear response range was 0.33-15 000 µM with a correlation coefficient (R 2) value of 0.995. Excellent performance toward H2O2 was observed with a limit of detection of 0.059 µM, a limit of quantification of 0.199 µM, and sensitivity of 2156.25 µA mM-1 cm-2. A short response time of within 2 s was achieved. Hence, we develop and offer an efficient approach for synthesizing a new cost-efficient material for H2O2 sensing.

Fe-doped mayenite electride composite with 2D reduced Graphene Oxide: As a non-platinum based, highly durable electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction.

Since the last decades, non-precious metal catalysts (NPMC), especially iron based electrocatalysts show sufficient activity, potentially applicant in oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), however they only withstand considerable current densities at low operating potentials. On the other hand iron based electrocatalysts are not stable at elevated cathode potentials, which is essential for high energy competence, and its remains difficult to deal. Therefore, via this research a simple approach is demonstrated that allows synthesis of nanosize Fe-doped mayenite electride, [Ca24Al28O64]4+·(e-)4 (can also write as, C12A7-xFex:e-, where doping level, x = 1) (thereafter, Fe-doped C12A7:e-), consist of abundantly available elements with gram level powder material production, based on simple citrate sol-gel method. The maximum achieved conductivity of this first time synthesized Fe-doped C12A7:e- composite materials was 249 S/cm. Consequently, Fe-doped C12A7:e- composite is cost-effective, more active and highly durable precious-metal free electrocatalyst, with 1.03 V onset potential, 0.89 V (RHE) half-wave potential, and ~5.9 mA/cm2 current density, which is higher than benchmark 20% Pt/C (5.65 mA/cm2, and 0.84 V). The Fe-doped C12A7:e- has also higher selectivity for desired 4e- pathway, and more stable than 20 wt% Pt/C electrode with higher immunity towards methanol poisoning. Fe-doped C12A7:e- loses was almost zero of its original activity after passing 11 h compared to the absence of methanol case, indicates that to introduce methanol has almost negligible consequence for ORR performance, which makes it highly desirable, precious-metal free electrocatalyst in ORR. This is primarily described due to coexistence of Fe-doped C12A7:e- related active sites with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with pyridinic-nitrogen, and their strong coupling consequence along their porous morphology textures. These textures assist rapid diffusion of molecules to catalyst active sites quickly. In real system maximum power densities reached to 243 and 275 mW/cm2 for Pt/C and Fe-doped C12A7:e- composite, respectively.

Novel Two-Dimensional Carbon-Chromium Nitride-Based Composite as an Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction.

For future pollution-free renewable energy production, platinum group metal (PGM)-free electrocatalysts are highly required for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) to avoid all possible Fenton reactions and to make fuel cell more economical. Therefore, in this study, to overcome traditional electrocatalyst limitations, we applied facile method to synthesize robust mesoporous CrN-reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposite with MnO (thereafter, Cr/rGO composite with MnO) as an electrocatalyst by efficient one-step sol-gel method by ammonolysis at 900°C for 9 h. Synthesized porous structures of Cr/rGO nanocomposite with MnO have the highest estimated surface area of 379 m2·g-1, higher than that of the carbon black (216 m2· g cat - 1 ) support, and almost uniform pore size distribution of about 4 nm. The Cr/rGO nanocomposites with MnO exhibit enhanced electrocatalytic ORR properties with estimated high half-wave potential of 0.89 V vs. the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and current density of 5.90 mA·cm-2, compared with that of benchmark 20% Pt/C electrode (0.84 V, 5.50 mA·cm-2), with noticeable methanol tolerance and significantly enhanced stability in alkaline media. Hence, the Cr/rGO nanocomposites with MnO showed superior performance to 20 wt.% Pt/C; their half-wave potentials were 50 mV high, and the limiting current density was 0.40 mA·cm-2 high. In alkaline anion exchange membrane fuel cell (AAEMFC) setup, this cell delivers a power density of 309 mW·cm-2 for Cr/rGO nanocomposite with MnO, demonstrating its potential use for energy conversion applications. The nanosized Cr/rGO metallic crystalline nanocomposites with MnO gave a large active surface area owing to the presence of rGO, which also has an effect on the charge distribution and electronic states. Hence, it may be the reason that Cr/rGO nanocomposites with MnO, acting as more active and more stable catalytic materials, boosted the electrocatalytic properties. The synergistic consequence in nanosized Cr/rGO composite with MnO imparts the materials' high electron mobility and thus robust ORR activity in 0.1 M of KOH solution. This potential method is highly efficient for synthesis of large-scale, non-noble-metal-based electrocatalytic (NNME) materials (i.e., Cr/rGO nanocomposite with MnO) on the gram level and is efficient in preparing novel, low-cost, and more stable non-PGM catalysts for fuel cells.

Finally, some effective methods for enhancing the performance of the fuel cells based on 2D materials were also discussed, and the opportunities and challenges of 2D material-based fuel cells at the commercial level were also provided. This review can provide new avenues for 2D materials with properties suitable for fuel cell technology development and related fields.

Nickel-Based Transition Metal Nitride Electrocatalysts for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction.

Electrocatalysis is an efficient and promising means of energy conversion, with minimal environmental footprint. To enhance reaction rates, catalysts are required to minimize overpotential. Alternatives to noble metal electrocatalysts are essential to address these needs on a large scale. In this context, transition metal nitride (TMN) nanoparticles have attracted much attention owing to their high catalytic activity, distinctive electronic structures, and enhanced surface morphologies. Nickel-based materials are an ideal choice for electrocatalysts given nickel's abundance and low cost in comparison to noble metals. In this Minireview, advancements made specifically in Ni-based binary and ternary TMNs as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are critically evaluated. When used as OER electrocatalysts, Ni-based nanomaterials with 3 D architectures on a suitable support (e.g., a foam support) speed up electron transfer as a result of well-oriented crystal structures and also assist intermediate diffusion, during reaction, of evolved gases. 2 D Ni-based nitride sheet materials synthesized without supports usually perform better than 3 D supported electrocatalysts. The focus of this Minireview is a systematic description of OER activity for state-of-the-art Ni-based nitrides as nanostructured electrocatalysts.
