The immense energy potential of natural water vapor cycles, encompassing evaporation, transport, and adsorption, remains substantially underexploited. Recent progress in nanomaterial science and an improved understanding of water-surface interactions have shown that because of quantum confinement effects and increased surface reactivity, nanoscale materials have exceptional electrical generation abilities through interfacial dynamics with aqueous phases. Hydrovoltaic technology has emerged as a novel energy conversion method that harnesses liquid-solid interfacial phenomena including surface slippage, frictional contact, evaporation dynamics, and moisture concentration gradients to produce electrical outputs. This review summarizes advances in graphene-based carbon materials for hydrovoltaic applications, addressing four critical aspects: (1) fundamental characteristics of graphene-water interfaces, (2) interfacial charge generation mechanisms at liquid-solid boundaries, (3) three principal electricity generation modes (flow-induced, evaporation-driven, and moisture gradient-enabled power generation), and (4) practical implementation scenarios. We also propose ways to improve the energy conversion efficiency and scale-up of the current technology for its use in self-powered systems, flexible energy storage batteries, humidity sensors, and personal thermal management devices.

Silicon-carbon composites are promising candidates for high-capacity anode materials in next-generation lithium-ion batteries. The structural properties of the carbon coating significantly influence the structural stability as well as the electron and ion transport properties of these composites. We synthesized porous silicon microparticles coated by a defect-rich carbon network (P-Si@DCN) through coating asphaltene and resin hybrid onto the porous silicon surface and subsequent carbonization. Asphaltene, as the primary carbon-forming component, could be carbonized into a dense carbon layer characterized by high electrical conductivity and mechanical strength. The resin functioned as the dispersant for the asphaltene and facilitated the formation of a homogeneous and well-interconnected carbon network. Abundant defects were also generated by the decomposition of the resin into gas during the carbonization process. In the P-Si@DCN composite, the well-interconnected carbon network ensured good electronic contact between isolated silicon particles, and the defects served as active sites that improved the adsorption and migration of lithium ions. The porous structure of the silicon, together with the tightly fitted carbon cladding, effectively limited the volume expansion during lithiation of the silicon. Because of these merits, the P-Si@DCN composite showed a good cycling stability (1161 mAh g⁻¹ after 300 cycles at a current density of 1 A g⁻¹) and an excellent rate capability (965 mAh g⁻¹ at 5 A g⁻¹).

硅碳复合材料是下一代锂离子电池高容量负极材料的理想选择。碳涂层的结构性能显著影响复合材料的结构稳定性以及电子和离子的输运性能。我们通过在多孔硅表面涂覆沥青烯和树脂杂化物并进行炭化，合成了由富缺陷碳网络包覆的多孔硅微粒（P-Si@DCN）。沥青质作为主要的成碳成分，可以碳化成致密的碳层，具有较高的导电性和机械强度。该树脂作为沥青质的分散剂，有助于形成均匀且连接良好的碳网络。在炭化过程中，树脂分解成气体产生了大量的缺陷。在P-Si@DCN复合材料中，连接良好的碳网络保证了隔离硅颗粒之间良好的电子接触，缺陷作为活性位点，提高了锂离子的吸附和迁移。硅的多孔结构与紧密贴合的碳包层一起，有效地限制了硅锂化过程中的体积膨胀。由于这些优点，P-Si@DCN复合材料表现出良好的循环稳定性（在1 a g−1电流密度下循环300次后为1161 mAh g−1）和优异的倍率性能（在5 a g−1电流密度下为965 mAh g−1）。下载：下载高分辨率图片（123KB）下载：下载全尺寸图片

The energy production system must be completely transformed to reach net zero emissions by 2050, and advanced battery technologies will play a pivotal role in helping downstream sectors transition to sustainable energy sources. Li-air batteries (LABs) provide a fascinating “beyond Li-ion” option because of their ultrahigh theoretical energy density, which far surpasses conventional lithium-ion batteries. However, LABs face significant hurdles in practical implementation, including electrolyte instability, irreversible electrodes, poor cycling performance, and low-rate capability. This review provides a detailed analysis of recent progress in LAB systems, highlighting innovative approaches such as electrolyte stabilization, electrode modification, and interfacial engineering to address these challenges. It evaluates current strategies for overcoming these problems and outlines targeted research directions aimed at resolving the remaining obstacles in LAB technology. The progress made so far indicates a way to realize practical LABs with a specific energy density potentially comparable to gasoline, which could revolutionize electric transportation.

Pitch is a complex mixture of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their non-metal derivatives that has a high carbon content. Using pitch as a precursor for carbon materials in alkali metal ion (Li⁺/Na⁺/K⁺) batteries has become of great interest. However, its direct pyrolysis often leads to microstructures with a high orientation and small interlayer spacing due to uncontrolled liquid-phase carbonization, resulting in subpar electrochemical performance. It is therefore important to control the microstructures of pitch-derived carbon materials in order to improve their electrochemical properties. We evaluate the latest progress in the development of these materials using various microstructural engineering approaches, highlighting their use in metal-ion batteries and supercapacitors. The advantages and limitations of pitch molecules and their carbon derivatives are outlined, together with strategies for their modification in order to improve their properties for specific applications. Future research possibilities for structure optimization, scalable production, and waste pitch recycling are also considered.

The advantages of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) for large-scale energy storage are well known. Among possible anode materials, hard carbon (HC) stands out as the most viable commercial option because of its superior performance. However, there is still disagreement regarding the sodium storage mechanism in the low-voltage plateau region of HC anodes, and the structure-performance relationship between its complex multiscale micro/nanostructure and electrochemical behavior remains unclear. This paper summarizes current research progress and the major problems in understanding HC's microstructure and sodium storage mechanism, and the relationship between them. Findings about a universal sodium storage mechanism in HC, including predictions about micropore-capacity relationships, and the opportunities and challenges for using HC anodes in commercial SIBs are presented.

In the context of rapid economic development, the pursuit of sustainable energy solutions has become a major challenge. Lithium-ion capacitors (LICs), which integrate the high energy density of lithium-ion batteries with the high power density of supercapacitors, have emerged as promising candidates. However, challenges such as poor capacity matching and limited energy density still hinder their practical application. Carbon nanofibers (CNFs), with their high specific surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, mechanical flexibility, and strong compatibility with active materials, are regarded as ideal electrode frameworks for LICs. This review summarizes key strategies to improve the electrochemical performance of CNF-based LICs, including structural engineering, heteroatom doping, and hybridization with transition metal oxides. The underlying mechanisms of each approach are discussed in detail, with a focus on their roles in improving capacitance, energy density, and cycling stability. This review aims to provide insights into material design and guide future research toward high-performance LICs for next-generation energy storage applications.

However, traditional carbon materials are unable to meet the requirements for applications in emerging fields such as renewable energy and electric vehicles due to limitations including a disordered structure and uncontrolled defects. With an aim of realizing devisable structures, adjustable functions, and performance breakthroughs, superstructured carbons is proposed and represent a category of carbon-based materials, characterized by precisely-built pores, networks, and interfaces. Superstructured carbons can overcome the limitations of traditional carbon materials and improve the performance of energy storage and conversion devices. We review the structure-activity relationships of superstructured carbons and recent research advances from three aspects including a precisely customized pore structure, a dense carbon network framework, and a multi-component highly coupled interface between the different components. Finally, we provide an outlook on the future development of and practical challenges in energy storage and conversion devices.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are an electrochemical energy storage technology that has been widely used for portable electrical devices, electric vehicles, and grid storage, etc. To satisfy the demand for user convenience especially for electric vehicles, the development of a fast-charging technology for LIBs has become a critical focus. In commercial LIBs, the slow kinetics of Li⁺ intercalation into the graphite anode from the electrolyte solution is known as the main restriction for fast-charging. We summarize the recent advances in obtaining fast-charging graphite-based anodes, mainly involving modifications of the electrolyte solution and graphite anode. Specifically, strategies for increasing the ionic conductivity and regulating the Li⁺ solvation/desolvation state in the electrolyte solution, as well as optimizing the fabrication and the intrinsic activity of graphite-based anodes are discussed in detail. This review considers practical ways to obtain fast Li⁺ intercalation kinetics into a graphite anode from the electrolyte as well as analysing progress in the commercialization of fast-charging LIBs.
