To achieve this objective, a template-oriented strategy coupled with multi-heteroatom modification is proposed to precisely synthesize a three-dimensional boron/nitrogen-rich carbon nanoflake-interconnected micro/nano superstructure, referred to as BNPC. The hierarchically porous framework of BNPC shares short channels for fast Zn<sup>2+</sup> transport, increased adsorption-site accessibility, and structural robustness. Additionally, the boron/nitrogen incorporation effect significantly augments Zn<sup>2+</sup> adsorption capability and more distinctive pseudocapacitive nature, notably enhancing Zn-ion storage and transmission kinetics by performing the dual-storage mechanism of the electric double-layer capacitance and Faradaic redox process in BNPC cathode. These merits contribute to a high capacity (143.7 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> at 0.2 A g<sup>−1</sup>) and excellent rate capability (84.5 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> at 30 A g<sup>−1</sup>) of BNPC-based aqueous ZHC, and the ZHC still shows an ultrahigh capacity of 108.5 mAh g<sup>−1</sup> even under a high BNPC mass loading of 12 mg cm<sup>−2</sup>. More critically, the BNPC-based flexible device also sustains notable cyclability over 30,000 cycles and low-rate self-discharge of 2.13 mV h<sup>−1</sup> along with a preeminent energy output of 117.15 Wh kg<sup>−1</sup> at a power density of 163.15 W kg<sup>−1</sup>, favoring a creditable applicability in modern electronics.

Photoinduced electron transfer reversible addition–fragmentation chain-transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization is a precise methodology for constructing polymers with well-defined structures. However, conventional semiconductor-mediated PET-RAFT polymerization still has considerable limitations in terms of efficiency as well as the polymerization environment. Herein, sulfur-doped carbonized polymer dots (CPDs) were hydrothermally synthesized for catalysis of aqueous PET-RAFT polymerization at unprecedented efficiency with a highest propagation rate of 5.05 h<sup>−1</sup>.
