Synchronously manipulating Zn2+ transfer and hydrogen/oxygen evolution kinetics in MXene host electrodes toward symmetric Zn-ions micro-supercapacitor with enhanced areal energy density

Zhiqia Cao et al.

Summary: The study presents a strategy to enhance Zn2+ diffusion and suppress hydrogen/oxygen evolution simultaneously within MXene host electrodes for high-energy-density symmetric ZMSCs. The designed MXene/BCF hybrid films effectively reduce Zn2+ diffusion barrier and induce additional pseudocapacitance, resulting in superior areal capacitance in ZMSCs. The use of a doubled voltage window in combination with suppressed kinetics of hydrogen/oxygen evolution leads to a significantly increased areal energy density compared to conventional electrolytes.
