MXene has attracted considerable attention for supercapacitor applications in the past decade owing to its exceptional electrochemical properties. Although major research interests are focused on composite-based MXene, doping engineering of MXene has recently emerged as a promising alternative. This work unveils the potential of doped MXene for supercapacitor applications with a critical perspective. Various doping engineering strategies and synthesis methods adopted are explicitly delineated. Detailed discussions on the optimization of lattice, functionalization, substitution, and interface modification are provided. Further, it sheds light on recent developments with the asssociated mechanism of doped MXene supercapacitors, followed by the associated challenges. Finally, a roadmap for further progress of doped MXene for the realization of advanced and high-performing energy storage systems has been described. We envision that this Perspective will open up new avenues for the further exploration of this domain.

MoCT MXenes have great potential for multifunctional energy storage applications because of their outstanding electrical conductivity, superior cycling stability, and high optical transmittance. In this study, we fabricate MoCT film electrodes (referred to as MoC) on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates using the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technique. To improve the energy-storage performance of MoCT film electrodes, we develop a convenient electrochemical activation process to prepare in situ oxidized MoCT/MoO film electrodes (referred to as EA-MoC).

Thermoelectric technology enables the direct and reversible conversion of heat into electrical energy without air pollution. Herein, the stability, electronic structure, and thermoelectric properties of methoxy-functionalized MC(OMe) (M = Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf, Ta, and W) were systematically investigated using first-principles calculations and semiclassical Boltzmann transport theory. All MXenes, except those with M = Cr, Mo, and W, can be synthesized by substituting Cl- and Br-functionalized MXenes with deprotonated methanol, with stability governed by the M-O bond strength.

The design of mixed-dimensional heterostructures has emerged to be a new frontier of research as it induces exciting physical/chemical properties that extend beyond the fundamental properties of single dimensional systems. Therefore, rational design of heterostructured materials with novel surface chemistry and tailored interfacial properties appears to be very promising for the devices such as the gas sensors. Here, a highly sensitive gas sensor device is constructed by employing heterostructures of boron doped molybdenum disulfide quantum dots (B-MoS Qdots) assembled into the matrix of TiCT MXene.
