Zusammenfassung: | Hybrid ion capacitors (HICs) based on insertion reactions have attracted considerable attention due to their energy density being much higher than that of the electrical double-layer capacitors (EDLCs). However, the development of hybrid ion capacitors with high energy density at high power density is a big challenge due to the mismatch of charge storage capacities and electrode kinetics between the battery-type anode and capacitor-type cathode. In this work, N and O dual doped carbon nanofibers (N,O-CNFs) were combined with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to compose a complex carbon anode. N,O dual doping effectively tuned the functional group and surface activity of the CNFs while the integration of CNTs increased the extent of graphitization and electrical conductivity. The carbon cathode with high specific surface area and high capacity was obtained by the activation of CNFs (A-CNFs). Finally, a hybrid sodium ion capacitor was constructed by the double carbon electrode, which showed a superior electrochemical capacitive performance.
