Abstract:
Carbon materials with controllable hierarchically porous structure and high doping level are expect to exhibit superior energy storage performance when used as electrode materials for supercapacitors. Herein, we report the preparation of a novel foam-like boron-doped carbon nitride material with hierarchically porous structure and high doping contents of nitrogen (21.45 ± 0.93 at%) and boron (6.46 ± 0.60 at%). Due to the unique compositional and structural features, this material exhibits high energy storage performance, including a large specific capacitance of ∼ 660.6 F g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 and a high capacitance retention after 10,000 cycles. This study can provide new ideas for the development of carbon based electrode materials with unique hierarchically porous structure and improved doping level.

Ionic Bonds
When atoms gain or lose electrons to achieve a more stable electron configuration they form ions. Ionic bonds are electrostatic attractions between ions with opposite charges. Ionic compounds are rigid and brittle when solid and may dissociate into their constituent ions in water. Covalent compounds, by contrast, remain intact unless a chemical reaction breaks them.

Molecular and Ionic Solids
Molecular Solids
Molecular crystalline solids, such as ice, sucrose (table sugar), and iodine, are solids that are composed of neutral molecules as their constituent units. These molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces such as London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions, or hydrogen bonds, which...
