Heterostructure Engineering of Biphase‐Coupled Ternary Transition Metal Phosphoselenide by Topological Transformation Enabling High Performance for Supercapacitors

Abstract The exploration of promising electrode materials with structural stability and rapid interfacial reaction kinetics is highly desirable for supercapacitors toward large‐scale applications. Herein, the synthesis of biphase‐coupled CoPSe/NiP 0.24 Se 1.76 with multiple in‐plane heterointerfaces using the in situ topological transformation approach is presented. As a novel ternary metal phosphoselenide (TMPSe) for supercapacitor cathode that is fabricated by synchronous phosphoselenization strategy, it realizes a superior lifespan with cycling compared to conventional transition metal selenides. The depleted anti‐bonding e g * orbitals of transition metal ions (Co/Ni) in the CoPSe/NiP 0.24 Se 1.76 , as proved by preliminary theoretical calculations, strengthens the chemical bonding between Co/Ni and coordinating atoms, thereby enhancing the chemical stability. Simultaneously, the CoPSe/NiP 0.24 Se 1.76 in‐plane multi‐heterostructures can not only alleviate the volume change during the charge–discharge process but also expose more active sites, promoting the adsorption of OH − ions, which is conducive to the rapid redox reaction kinetics of the CoPSe/NiP 0.24 Se 1.76 , and consequently, it delivers a remarkable reversible capacity and excellent long‐term cycle stability with 97.7% initial capacitance retention over 16 000 cycles. Moreover, the asymmetric supercapacitors with this cathode demonstrate outstanding rate capability and high energy density. This strategy of constructing biphase‐coupled CoPSe/NiP 0.24 Se 1.76 by topological transformation is of great potential application for the high‐performance electrode material.
