摘要

Hybrid supercapacitors combine the advantages of batteries and conventional capacitors by providing a balance between high energy density and high-power density. In this study, a three-dimensional octahedral framework of β-Na₂MnP₂O₇ (NMP) is investigated as a positive electrode material for aqueous sodium-ion hybrid capacitors. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirms the formation of a triclinic crystal structure with well-defined diffraction peaks. The vibrational modes associated with P–O and P–O–P groups further verify the formation of the β-phase, as confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) reveals the presence of Na, Mn, P, and O elements with their corresponding binding energies in β-Na₂MnP₂O₇. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) images show a stacked plate-like morphology. The β-Na₂MnP₂O₇ // activated carbon (AC) hybrid device operates stably within a potential window of 1.5 V in 1 M NaOH electrolyte. The assembled cell delivers a specific capacitance of 119 F g−1 at a scan rate of 2 mV s−1 from cyclic voltammetry and 103 F g−1 at a current of 0.6 mA from galvanostatic charge–discharge measurements. The device exhibits an energy density of 33 Wh kg−1 and a power density of 245 W kg−1, along with 82% capacitance retention after 2000 charge–discharge cycles, indicating excellent electrochemical stability. Furthermore, theoretical simulations of the two-dimensional β-Na₂MnP₂O₇ || AC hybrid cell were performed using the COMSOL Multiphysics platform to analyze the electric field distribution, electric displacement field, and electric potential. These findings highlight β-Na₂MnP₂O₇ as a promising cathode material for high-performance aqueous sodium-ion hybrid capacitors.
