Abstract

On page 4683, H. Wang L. Guo, and co-workers present a novel transition-metal-free asymmetric supercapacitor (ACS) based on a biomolecule named lawsone (2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone), which is a natural component derived from henna. The ASC shows comparable or even higher energy densities compared to those of reported transition-metal-based ASCs, and provides a new strategy for the generation of versatile green ASCs by harnessing the natural pool of abundant redox-active biomolecules.
