Abstract
En 中文
The commercial development of supercapacitors (SCs) heavily depends on a stable electrochemical performance with a long life span. However, insufficient charge transfer within the SC electrodes is a major challenge. This paper introduces an interface engineering strategy to enhance charge transfer by creating a built-in electric field (BIEF) at the interface of MXene electrode material. Ti3C2T x MXene decorated with Ti2N nanocubes was selected as the electrode material, and a stable BIEF was formed at the Ti2N/Ti3C2T x interface due to the different surface potentials of Ti2N and Ti3C2T x . Our results show that the designed Ti2N/Ti3C2T x electrode exhibits a high capacitance of 250.3 F g-1, an excellent rate capability of 63.6% at 20 A g-1, and an outstanding cycling stability of 95.8% at 10 A g-1 after 10,000 cycles in a three-electrode system. The assembled two-electrode device with activated carbon (AC) as the anode, the Ti2N/Ti3C2T x //AC, demonstrates an excellent energy storage performance, with an energy density of up to 50.8 Wh kg-1 and an outstanding cycling stability of 96.77% over 10,000 cycles. The improved energy storage performance and cycling stability are attributed to the accelerated ion transportation and adsorption/desorption on the electrode surface, driven by the electric field force generated by the BIEF. In addition, the in-situ growth of Ti2N on the Ti3C2T x surface is conducive to improving the structural stability of the electrode material and promoting the stable existence of the BIEF. This work provides a new pathway for developing ultrastable and high-performance SCs.
