“…5 In this context, carbon materials, which are considered promising candidates, have been developed and investigated in electrochemical energy storage applications. [6][7][8][9] With the exploration of diverse carbon materials (such as carbon nanotubes/nanobers, activated carbon, amorphous carbon, graphene, and carbon black materials with controllable characteristics and functionalities) and rapid development of nanotechnology, carbon-based functional materials have received considerable attention. 10,11 However, tedious synthetic methods requiring harsh conditions, organic solvents, 12,13 expensive metal catalysts, 14,15 and complicated apparatus are employed for their preparation, limiting the commercialization of these carbon materials.…”
