Two-dimensional LDH nanosheets recently have generated considerable interest in various promising applications because of their intriguing properties. Herein, we report a facile in situ nucleation strategy toward in situ decorating monodispersed Ni-Fe LDH ultrafine nanosheets (UNs) on graphene oxide template based on the precise control and manipulation of LDH UNs anchored, nucleated, grown, and crystallized. Anion-exchange behavior was observed in this Ni-Fe LDH UNs@rGO composite. The Ni-Fe LDH UNs@rGO electrodes displayed a significantly enhanced specific capacitance (2715F g at 3 A g) and energy density (82.3 Wh kg at 661 W kg), which exceeds the energy densities of most previously reported nickel iron oxide/hydroxides. Moreover, the asymmetric supercapacitor, with the Ni-Fe LDH UNs @rGO composite as the positive electrode material and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as the negative electrode material, exhibited a high energy density (120 Wh kg ) at an average power density of 1.3 kW kg . A charge transfer from LDH layer to graphene layer, which means a built in electric field directed from LDH to graphene can be established by DFT calculations, which can significantly accelerate reaction kinetics and effectively optimize the capacitive energy storage performance.

The rising demand for efficient energy storage in flexible electronics is driving the search for materials that are well-suited for the fabrication of these devices. Layered Double Hydroxides (LDHs) stand out as a remarkable material with a layered structure that embodies exceptional electrochemical properties. In this study, both double-shelled and single-shelled NiFe-Layered Double Hydroxide (LDH) particles are prepared using spindle-shaped MIL-101(Fe) as the template.

NiFe-based materials, especially NiFe layered double hydroxides (LDHs), are recognized as the most promising non-precious metal electrocatalysts for alkaline oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, the precisely designed distribution of active sites for enhancing activities is still significantly restricted due to the lack of reasonable modulation strategies. Herein, sulfur doped Ni/Fe gradient-distributed LDH (GD-NiFe LDH/S) is fabricated by facile air-induced strategy at room temperature.

Transition-metal-based layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are emerging as one of the most promising candidates with superior oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity. However, their fabrication under mild conditions remains a significant challenge. Here, we propose a low-cost, high-production-rate strategy for controlled preparation of AlOOH/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with strong adsorption capacity for transition metal cations, and then in-situ conversion to CoAl-LDH/rGO, NiAl-LDH/rGO and FeAl-LDH/rGO under ambient conditions.

In this study, we synthesized novel three-dimensional (3D) cross-flowered Co-Ni metal-organic framework (Co-Ni-MOF) precursors using the chemical precipitation method. Subsequently, we obtained Co-Ni-Fe layered double hydroxides (Co-Ni-Fe-LDHs) through an ion exchange strategy, which preserved their original morphology while consisting of ultrathin layered hydroxide nanosheets. The interlayer spacing of the LDH lamellar structure was finely tuned by varying the ratios of Co to Ni.
