Abstract
The controllable synthesis of high-entropy perovskite oxides and the modulation of their electronic structures are crucial for enhancing the electrochemical performance of supercapacitors. However, it remains challenging to regulate the electronic configuration of B-site elements via A-site doping. In this study, we have reconstructed the electron configuration of B-site elements in high-entropy perovskites through Sm doping, and obtained high-entropy perovskite oxides La1-xSmx (Mn0·2Fe0·2Co0·2Ni0·2Cr0.2)O3 (LaSmTMO3−x) with abundant valence states. The fabricated LaSmTMO3−0.2 exhibits high specific capacitance of 1367.3 F g−1 at 0.5 A g−1. Besides, the asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) based on LaSmTMO3−0.2 exhibits an impressive energy density of 41.2 Wh kg−1 at a power density of 400 W kg−1, with a specific capacity retention of 87.1 % after 10000 cycles. The experimental results demonstrate that superior supercapacitor performance can be attributed to electron rearrangement induced by Sm doping, leading to the formation of active metal species with multiple oxidation states. Simultaneously, Sm doping significantly improves structural integrity, electronic conductivity, and ion transfer kinetics. This work emphasizes the importance of A-site regulation of high entropy perovskite oxides for improving electrochemical performance and provides A new direction for the design of perovskite oxides in energy storage and conversion systems.
高熵钙钛矿氧化物的可控合成及其电子结构的调制是提高超级电容器电化学性能的关键。然而,通过掺杂a位来调节b位元素的电子构型仍然具有挑战性。本研究通过Sm掺杂重建了高熵钙钛矿中b位元素的电子构型,得到了价态丰富的高熵钙钛矿氧化物La1-xSmx (Mn0·2Fe0·2Co0·2Ni0·2Cr0.2)O3 (LaSmTMO3−x)。制备的LaSmTMO3−0.2在0.5 A g−1时具有1367.3 F g−1的高比电容。此外,基于LaSmTMO3−0.2的非对称超级电容器(ASC)在功率密度为400 W kg−1时,能量密度为41.2 Wh kg−1,循环10000次后比容量保持率为87.1%。实验结果表明,优异的超级电容器性能可归因于Sm掺杂引起的电子重排,从而形成具有多种氧化态的活性金属。同时,Sm掺杂显著改善了结构完整性、电子导电性和离子转移动力学。本研究强调了高熵钙钛矿氧化物的A位调控对提高电化学性能的重要性,为钙钛矿氧化物在储能和转换系统中的设计提供了新的方向。
