Abstract

Efficient energy storage and conversion is crucial for a sustainable society. Battery-supercapacitor hybrid energy storage devices offer a promising solution, bridging the gap between traditional batteries and supercapacitors. In this regard, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as the most versatile functional compounds owing to their captivating structural features, unique properties, and extensive diversity of applications in energy storage. MOF properties are governed by the structure and topological characteristics, which are influenced by the types of ligands and metal nodes. Herein, MOFs based on pyridine 3,5-dicarboxylate (PYDC) ligand in combination with copper and cobalt are electrochemically analyzed. Owing to the promising initial characterization of Cu-PYDC-MOF, a battery supercapacitor hybrid device was fabricated, comprising Cu-PYDC-MOF and activated carbon (AC) electrodes. The device showcased energy and power density of 17 W h kg -1 and 2550 W kg -1, respectively. Dunn's model was employed to gain deeper insights into the capacitive and diffusive contributions of the device. With their performance and versatility, the PYDC-based MOFs stand at the forefront of energy technology, ready to power a brighter future for upcoming generations.
