“…Currently, most researchers are working on different types of MOs and their composites with C-based and non-C-based materials. The most important and abundant metal oxides in nature are Co 2 O 3 , MnO 2 , Co 3 O 4 /NiO, and NiO, which are considered good electrode materials for SCs ( Xu et al, 2007 ; Li et al, 2011 ; Fan et al, 2012 ; Shariq et al, 2023 ; Sohail et al, 2024 ). Several composites of MOs with carbonaceous materials, such as reduced graphene oxide (rGO), graphene oxide (GO), and graphite (G), have been prepared using various methods of preparation with varying morphologies.…”

A significant amount of energy can be produced using renewable energy sources; however, storing massive amounts of energy poses a substantial obstacle to energy production. Economic crisis has led to rapid developments in electrochemical (EC) energy storage devices (EESDs), especially rechargeable batteries, fuel cells, and supercapacitors (SCs), which are effective for energy storage systems. Researchers have lately suggested that among the various EESDs, the SC is an effective alternate for energy storage due to the presence of the following characteristics: SCs offer high-power density (PD), improvable energy density (ED), fast charging/discharging, and good cyclic stability. This review highlighted and analyzed the concepts of supercapacitors and types of supercapacitors on the basis of electrode materials, highlighted the several feasible synthesis processes for preparation of metal oxide (MO) nanoparticles, and discussed the morphological effects of MOs on the electrochemical performance of the devices. In this review, we primarily focus on pseudo-capacitors for SCs, which mainly contain MOs and their composite materials, and also highlight their future possibilities as a useful application of MO-based materials in supercapacitors. The novelty of MO’s electrode materials is primarily due to the presence of synergistic effects in the hybrid materials, rich redox activity, excellent conductivity, and chemical stability, making them excellent for SC applications.

This article discusses recent advancements in the Laser Surface Transformation Hardening (LSTH) process applied to industrial metals. It focuses on examining the microstructure of the metal surface layer and explores different methods of performing LSTH to evaluate mechanical and surface properties. The study also investigates the utilization of various industrial lasers and simulation software for the LSTH process. The careful analysis of heat transfer and temperature control during LSTH aims to prevent the generation of surface defects like micro-cracks and surface melting. Finite element method (FEM) software effectively simulates the LSTH process. The research provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments in LSTH, categorized based on different metals and subsequent testing, highlighting its applications in the automotive industry. Electrochemical, wear, and microhardness tests are investigated to assess the potential applications of automotive metals.

High‐power all‐fiber thulium lasers have gained considerable interest in recent times due to their distinct characteristics and versatile applications in the medical and industrial sectors. This review article presents a comprehensive examination of the advancements and challenges in this field. It begins with an overview of thulium‐doped silica fiber, which is a critical component for high‐power lasers operating at the 2 µm (micrometer) wavelength band. The research progress of essential high‐power thulium laser sources, including continuous‐wave (CW), quasi‐continuous wave (QCW), and pulsed lasers, is then thoroughly analyzed, highlighting their respective strengths and limitations. Additionally, the diverse applications of high‐power thulium fiber lasers in medical and industrial domains are summarized. Furthermore, the article emphasizes the current challenges in the advancement of high‐power thulium‐doped fiber lasers (TDFLs) and outlines potential avenues for future development. Despite TDFLs being the predominant laser source in lithotripsy and material processing applications, optimizing their performance and expediting further progress in thulium laser technology remain crucial objectives. This review article aims to provide valuable insights for researchers, engineers, and professionals working in the field of high‐power fiber lasers operating at 2 µm.
