Abstract

Abstract The newly emerging supercapacitor‐diode (CAPode), integrating the characteristics of a diode into an electrical‐double‐layer capacitor, can be employed to extend conventional supercapacitors to new technological applications and may play a crucial role in grid stabilization, signal propagation, and logic operations. However, the reported CAPodes have only been able to realize charge storage in the positive‐bias direction. Here, bias‐direction‐adjustable CAPodes realized by using a polycation‐based ionic liquid (IL) or a polyanion‐based IL as electrolyte in an asymmetric carbon‐based supercapacitor architecture are proposed. The resulting CAPodes exhibit charge‐storage function at only the positive‐ or negative‐bias direction with a high rectification ratio (≈80% for rectification ratio II, RRII) and an outstanding cycling life (4500 cycles), representing a crucial breakthrough for designing high‐performance capacitive ionic diodes.
