Article Abstract
Radical polymers, containing stable nitroxyl radical, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO), within their repeating units, are considered as bipolar cathode materials capable of undergoing both oxidation and reduction in the redox process. However, in most cases, TEMPOcontaining radical polymers are exclusively employed as p-type cathode materials, initially oxidized to a positively charged state, with only one electron being stored or released in the redox process of TEMPO units. Here, a kind of composite material, poly(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl-4-yl methacrylate) (PTMA) grafted to reduced graphene oxide, rGO-g-PTMA, is applied as cathode material for zinc-organic battery. Its high specific capacity (>220 mAh g) and two well-resolved voltage plateaus confirmed the participation of TEMPO reduction in energy storage, as well as the bipolar energy storage capability of PTMA. Its electrochemical reaction mechanism and energy storage performance are also investigated in detail. This first full and distinct utilization of its p- and n-type redox reaction of PTMA opens a new avenue for nitroxyl radicals as high-performance cathode materials for zinc-organic batteries.

A cost-effective and large-scale method for synthesizing ZnCoO nanoflowers with surface oxygen vacancies as electrode materials for supercapacitors is presented. The existence of oxygen vacancies on the surface of the ZnCoO nanoflowers has been confirmed through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The energy bands and density of states (DOS) of ZnCoO are examined using density functional theory, revealing that treatment with NaBH reduces the band gap of ZnCoO while increasing the DOS near the Fermi level compared to pristine ZnCoO.

The introduction of two-dimensional (2D) perovskite layers on top of three-dimensional (3D) perovskite films enhances the performance and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the electronic effect of the spacer cation and the quality of the 2D capping layer are critical factors in achieving the required results. In this study, we compared two fluorinated salts: 4-(trifluoromethyl) benzamidine hydrochloride (4TF-BA·HCl) and 4-fluorobenzamidine hydrochloride (4F-BA·HCl) to engineer the 3D/2D perovskite films.

Sugarcane () was employed as a sustainable carbon source to synthesize three-dimensional (3D) spherical manganese carbonate (MnCO) microspheres, offering a green route to advanced electrode material for high-energy-density symmetric supercapacitors. Although numerous synthesis strategies and material modifications have been explored, a detailed evaluation of environmentally friendly synthesis pathways remains essential. In this study, MnCO microspheres were successfully synthesized via a sugar-derived green synthesis followed by hydrothermal treatment.

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) represent an environmentally benign energy storage alternative. However, the VO cathode suffers from limited cycling stability and rate capability due to structural instability, vanadium dissolution, and high desolvation energy caused by the large size of [Zn(HO)] deintercalation. Address these issues, we introduce a VO/VOPO (VOP) heterostructure that that reinforces the crystal structure to suppress vanadium dissolution and establishes a hydrophilic interface reducing the desolvation energy of Zn.
