power sectors, particularly in the field of hybrid energy vehicles. In view of this, the detailed progress and status
of electrochemical supercapacitors and batteries with reference to hybrid energy systems is critically reviewed in
this paper. The focus is also given to the recent trends in porous and graphene-based carbon electrode materials
in asymmetric capacitor and metal ion capacitors (e.g. Li-ion, Na-ion, and K-ion capacitors) and its electro­
chemical properties for its potential applications. The output of this unique review will serve as a database for
extending the R&D in the field of supercapacitor-battery hybrid system for possible applications including e-
vehicles.

principles and technological prospects. The SBH intends to obtain
comparable performance to batteries in terms of energy capacity and

ions present in the electrolytes are adsorbed by the electrode material
and, thus, a charge separation occurs, resulting in polarization at elec­

means of surface dissociation, adsorption of ions from the solution, and
defects in the crystal lattice of a material; which depends on the con­

comprises incorporated carbon with either conducting polymers or
metal oxides. The second class of hybrid supercapacitors comprises two
different materials with redox properties, while the third type of
supercapacitor contains a battery-type material electrode and super­

battery and supercapacitor electrode, exhibits better performance. This
review will be primarily focussed on supercapacitor-battery hybrid
(SBH) devices with electrodes based on advanced carbon materials.
Along with this, the detailed mechanisms of metal ion capacitors like
lithium-ion capacitor (LIC), sodium-ion capacitor (SIC), potassium-ion

also be discussed in the subsequent sections.
During the charge and discharge process of SBH, anions or cations
move to the electrodes, and bulk redox reactions happen at battery-type
electrodes while ion accumulation or separation or rapid-charge transfer
occur in capacitive electrodes, so the electrons flow through the external
circuit [82]. The energy density can be improved by: (i) capacitive

satisfactory results due to limited ion accessibility in nanopores. For K-
ion storage anode, a suitable material that can reversibly host large-
sized K+ (ionic radius of 1.38 Å) and offer long-cycling stability by
sustaining volume changes upon charging/discharging processes is
highly desirable. Ideally, anode materials with large interlayer spacing,
high electronic, and ionic conductivity are sought to achieve satisfactory
electrochemical performance. However, the concept of hybrid devices
has rarely been reported in potassium-ion energy storage device. Pham
et al. [228] reported nonaqueous KIC with K4Nb6O17 (KNO) nanosheet
array as anode and orange peel-derived graphene-like carbon (OPAC) as
a cathode. It is noted that the utilization of biomass as precursor reduces
the cost of production. Considering the good electrochemical perfor­
mance of the individual half-cell, KNO//OPAC KIC was then fabricated
in the potential window 0–3.5 V with the cell-delivered specific capac­
itance of 68 F/g at current density 0.12 A/g and a capacity retention of
87% after 5000 cycles, as given in Fig. 22. The cell delivered an energy
density of 116 Wh kg− 1 at a power density of 216 W kg− 1, indicating that
KIC based on layered niobates and waste-derived carbons have the po­
tential to bridge the gap between rechargeable batteries and the
supercapacitors [228].

fabricate Se and N co-doped 3D macroporous carbon. Benefiting from
the advantages of 3D-hierarchical-porous architecture, enlarged inter­
layer space and abundant heteroatoms doping, the KIC made of Se/N-
3DMpC anode and the A-Se/N3DMpC cathode delivered energy den­
sity of 91 Wh kg− 1 at a high power density of 8100 W kg− 1 and exhibit
outstanding cycling stability [231]. The unique confined Nitrogen-
doped‑carbon nanosheet (NC) with abundantly decorated ultrafine MoP
nanoparticles can also endow structural compatibility, relieve volume
expansion, and provide conductive pathways for K+ diffusion and
electron transfer. The ultrafine MoP nanoparticles could activate the
neighbouring areas in NC skeletons to efficiently improve the binding
energy toward potassium ions and demonstrate enhanced conductivity
with the partial generation of MoP ionic bonds. Thus, the fabricated KIC
showed an energy and power density of 69.7 Wh kg− 1 and 2041 W kg− 1

capacitance retention after 800 cycles which is shown in Fig. 23 [232].
