Owing to abundant resources, low redox potential, and low expense, potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) have received continuous attention as a rookie of renewable electricity storage equipment. To obtain high-performance PIBs based energy storage, the energy storage anode must provide a stable and suitable structure for large-sized active potassium ions. To this end, a lotus leaf-derived, hierarchically porous activated carbon (LHPAC) was mainly obtained by a bionic strategy. The prepared LHPAC with a hierarchically porous structure not only affords fast transportation for both electrons and potassium ions but also supplies the necessary void space to avoid structural instability incurred by volume dilatation in the process of electrode operation. Therefore, the LHPAC exhibited exceptional reversible capacity (170 mA · h · g–1 at 50 mA · g–1) and superb cycle solidity (0.016% tiny capacity attenuation per cycle at 200 mA · g–1, capacity retention rate of 86.3% after 870 cycles), as well as inimitable rate performance. This work demonstrates the great application prospects of biomass-derived carbon materials as anode for sturdy PIBs.

AbstractPotassium-ion hybrid capacitors (PIHCs) tactfully combining capacitor-type cathode with battery-type anode have recently attracted increasing attentions due to their advantages of decent energy density, high power density, and low cost; the mismatches of capacity and kinetics between capacitor-type cathode and battery-type anode in PIHCs yet hinder their overall performance output. Herein, based on prediction of density functional theory calculations, we find Se/N co-doped porous carbon is a promising candidate for K+ storage and thus develop a simple and universal self-sacrifice template method to fabricate Se and N co-doped three-dimensional (3D) macroporous carbon (Se/N-3DMpC), which features favorable properties of connective hierarchical pores, expanded interlayer structure, and rich activity site for boosting pseudocapacitive activity and kinetics toward K+ storage anode and enhancing capacitance performance for the reversible anion adsorption/desorption cathode. As expected, the as-assembled PIHCs full cell with a working voltage as high as 4.0 V delivers a high energy density of 186 Wh kg−1 and a power output of 8100 W kg−1 as well as excellent long service life. The proof-of-concept PIHCs with excellent performance open a new avenue for the development and application of high-performance hybrid capacitors.
