This review delves into the transformative potential of unconventional materials in enhancing the performance and versatility of energy storage systems.
More recently, highly crystalline conductive materials—such as metal organic frameworks (33 – 35), covalent organic frameworks (36), MXenes, and their composites, which form both 2D and 3D structures—have been used as electrodes for energy storage.
From mobile devices to the power grid, the needs for high-energy density or high-power density energy storage materials continue to grow. Materials that have at least one dimension on the nanometer scale offer opportunities for enhanced energy storage, although there are also challenges relating to, for example, stability and manufacturing.
Smart energy storage devices, which can deliver extra functions under external stimuli beyond energy storage, enable a wide range of applications. In particular, electrochromic (130), photoresponsive (131), self-healing (132), thermally responsive supercapacitors and batteries have been demonstrated.
Many conventional cathode materials, such as LiFePO 4 or LiCoO 2, when downsized to the nanometer scale, can provide faster energy storage compared with the bulk counterparts (43). However, the energy storage mechanism changes, with the surface redox reaction becoming a dominant process.
The development of nanomaterials and their related processing into electrodes and devices can improve the performance and/or development of the existing energy storage systems. We provide a perspective on recent progress in the application of nanomaterials in energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors and batteries.
Although the number of studies of various phenomena related to the performance of nanomaterials in energy storage is increasing year by year, only a few of them—such as graphene sheets, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon black, and silicon nanoparticles—are currently used in commercial devices, primarily as additives (18).
