Because portable power source is an essential need of such wearable devices, currently there is considerable research emphasis on the development of planar interdigitated micro energy-torage devices by employing diverse precursor materials to obtain functional materials (functional carbon, oxides, etc.) with the desirable set of properties. Herein we report for the first time the use of metal organic framework (MOF) and zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) for high-wavelength photothermal laser direct writing of metal-decorated, heteroatom-doped, porous few-layer graphene electrodes for microsupercapacitor application. We argue that the specific attributes of MOF as a precursor and the high-wavelength laser writing approach (which creates extremely high localized and transient temperature (>2500 degrees C) due to strong absorption by lattice vibrations) are together responsible for the peculiar interesting properties of the carbon material thus synthesized, thereby rendering extremely high cycling stability to the corresponding microsupercapacitor device. Our device exhibits near 100% retention after 200 000 cycles as well as stability under 150 degrees bending.1 aBasu, Aniruddha1 aRoy, Kingshuk1 aSharma, Neha1 aNandi, Shyamapada1 aVaidhyanathan, Ramanathan1 aRane, Sunit1 aRode, Chandrashekhar, V.1 aOgale, Satishchandra, B.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/co2-laser-direct-written-mof-based-metal-decorated-and-heteroatom-doped-porous-graphene02343nas a2200217   4500008004100000245013000041210006900171260000800240300002800248490000600276520153100282100002101813700001801834700002201852700002601874700002301900700001801923700002501941700003001966856012901996       2018                        eng d00aHigh and reversible lithium ion storage in self-exfoliated triazole-triformyl phloroglucinol-basedcovalent organic nanosheets0 aHigh and reversible lithium ion storage in selfexfoliated triazo  cMAR  aArticle Number: 17021700 v83 aCovalent organic framework (COF) can grow into self-exfoliated nanosheets. Their graphene/graphite resembling microtexture and nanostructure suits electrochemical applications. Here, covalent organic nanosheets (CON) with nanopores lined with triazole and phloroglucinol units, neither of which binds lithium strongly, and its potential as an anode in Li-ion battery are presented. Their fibrous texture enables facile amalgamation as a coin-cell anode, which exhibits exceptionally high specific capacity of approximate to 720 mA h g(-1) (@100 mA g(-1)). Its capacity is retained even after 1000 cycles. Increasing the current density from 100 mA g(-1) to 1 A g(-1) causes the specific capacity to drop only by 20%, which is the lowest among all high-performing anodic COFs. The majority of the lithium insertion follows an ultrafast diffusion-controlled intercalation (diffusion coefficient, D-Li(+) = 5.48 x 10(-11) cm(2) s(-1)). The absence of strong Li-framework bonds in the density functional theory (DFT) optimized structure supports this reversible intercalation. The discrete monomer of the CON shows a specific capacity of only 140 mA h g(-1) @50 mA g(-1) and no sign of lithium intercalation reveals the crucial role played by the polymeric structure of the CON in this intercalation-assisted conductivity. The potentials mapped using DFT suggest a substantial electronic driving-force for the lithium intercalation. The findings underscore the potential of the designer CON as anode material for Li-ion batteries.1 aHaldar, Sattwick1 aRoy, Kingshuk1 aNandi, Shyamapada1 aChakraborty, Debanjan1 aPuthusseri, Dhanya1 aGawli, Yogesh1 aOgale, Satishchandra1 aVaidhyanathan, Ramanathan  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/high-and-reversible-lithium-ion-storage-self-exfoliated-triazole-triformyl-phloroglucinol02395nas a2200301   4500008004100000022001400041245013200055210006900187260000800256300001200264490000800276520136300284653001501647653002201662653001901684653003401703653003401737653002901771100001801800700001801818700001801836700001901854700001901873700001401892700003001906700002501936856013201961       2020                        eng d  a0008-622300aRoom temperature processed in-situ carbon-coated vanadium carbide (VC@C) as a high capacity robust Li/Na battery anode material0 aRoom temperature processed insitu carboncoated vanadium carbide   cMAY  a108-1160 v1613 a<p>3D carbide systems with their robust physical and mechanical properties have always attracted multiple application interests. In this report, we have synthesized a three-dimensional in-situ carbon coated cubic carbide, Vanadium Carbide (VC@C), by a very simple, scalable and cost-effective room temperature mechano-chemical ball-milling procedure and researched its promise as effective anode material for Li and Na ion batteries. We have demonstrated that VC@C shows an impressive initial discharge/lithiation capacity of 1165 mAh g(-1) with a high reversible capacity of 640 mAh g(-1) after 100 charge-discharge cycles at an applied current density of 0.1 A g(-1). We have also found that this material renders a very promising rate performance with significantly low capacity drop after exposing it to variable current densities ranging from 0.05 A g(-1) to 2 A g(-1) with an excellent stability up to 1000 cycles owing to its structural robustness, as verified by post-cycling characterizations. A Li-ion full cell study using LiCoO2 as cathode also showed excellent promise in terms of practical application demonstrating a reversible capacity of 95 mAh g(-1) after 100 cycles. Even for Na insertion/de-insertion VC@C shows a clear promise in terms of capacity, cyclic stability and rate performance. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.</p>
