Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) combining of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and supercapacitors (SCs) with improved performance bridge the gap between these two devices, and have attracted huge attention in the field of high-efficiency electrochemical energy storage.
To satisfy the requirements of both high energy and power densities, a new and special energy-storage device, named as lithium-ion capacitors (LICs), has become a hottest focus, which can incorporate the merits of batteries and supercapacitors (Figure 1 a) [14, ∗∗15, 16].
A rapidly developing market for portable electronic devices and hybrid electrical vehicles requires an urgent supply of mature energy-storage systems. As a result, lithium-ion batteries and electrochemical capacitors have lately attracted broad attention. Nevertheless, it is well known that both devices have their own drawbacks.
The construction of high-performance lithium-ion capacitor (LICs) on the basis of carbon materials have been greatly limited by the unbalanced capacity and kinetic imbalance between the sluggish ion diffusion process of anode and fast electrostatic accumulation behavior of cathode.
As new-generation electrochemical energy-storage systems, lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) have combined the advantages of both lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors, manifesting the merits of high-energy density under power density.
