About this Research Topic
Nanomaterial-based electrodes can withstand high currents, showing great promise for high power and energy efficiency. Hence, nanostructures play an important role in controlling electrochemical performance and exploiting various charge storage mechanisms such as surface ion adsorption, pseudocapacitance, and diffusion-like intercalation processes. The development of new high-performance materials, such as redox-active transition metal carbides, whose conductivity is at least an order of magnitude higher than carbon and other conventional electrode materials, opens the door for today's collector design-free and next-generation high-power energy storage devices. We welcome Original Research, Review, Mini Review and Perspective articles on themes including, but not limited to:
• Developments in the nanostructured materials with different morphologies, such as zero-dimensional (0D) nanoparticles and quantum dots
• 2D materials of mexenes, nanoceramics, and nanocomposites
• 1D nanowires, nanotubes, and nanobelts, 2D nanoflakes and nanosheets
• 3D porous nanonetworks for high-power next-generation energy storage devices
Keywords: 2D nanomaterials, Nanocomposites, Nanowires, Nanotubes
