Phosphorus‐Regulated Te‐Vacancy‐Localized Re <sub>2</sub> Te <sub>5</sub> Anchored on TiN/MXene as High‐Energy Anode for all‐Solid‐State Lithium‐Ion Storage
Conventional liquid-electrolyte supercapacitors face leakage risks and low energy density, restricting their viability in portable electronics. Herein, a solid-state supercapacitor system overcomes these challenges via a P-A/C-Re<sub>2</sub>Te<sub>5</sub>@TiN/MXene anode paired with a SiO<sub>2</sub>-optimized PVA/LiCl electrolyte. Phosphorus doping induces Te vacancies in Re<sub>2</sub>Te<sub>5</sub> via P-Re coupling, enabling high-density Li<sup>+</sup> adsorption sites and intrinsic conductivity. The N-functionalized TiN/MXene framework provides a robust conductive network that simultaneously stabilizes P-A/C-Re<sub>2</sub>Te<sub>5</sub> through mechanical confinement while enabling efficient charge transfer via its high surface area and strong interfacial coupling. DFT calculations validate metallic behavior, optimal Li<sup>+</sup> adsorption (-3.3 eV), and rapid charge transfer. The electrode achieves exceptional specific capacitance (1458 F g<sup>-1</sup> at 0.3 A g<sup>-1</sup>) with ultralow charge transfer resistance. Integrated into a solid-state (P-A/C-Re<sub>2</sub>Te<sub>5</sub>@TiN/MXene//AC) device with a SiO<sub>2</sub>-optimized PVA/LiCl electrolyte, the system delivers breakthrough energy-power metrics (56.3 Wh kg<sup>-1</sup> at 780 W kg<sup>-1</sup> in coin cells, powering commercial mini-fan for >2 min after 10 s charging), while its scalable pouch configuration delivers 84.6 Wh kg<sup>-1</sup> with exceptional cycling stability and 120° bending durability. This work demonstrates a flexible and high-energy storage platform for wearables, merging defect engineering, heterojunction design, and interface optimization to transition from lab-scale innovation to real-world applications.
