The energy density of present lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) is greatly hindered by the limited specific capacities of porous carbon electrodes. Herein, we report the development of a nonaqueous LIC system by integrating two reversible electrode processes, that is, anion doping/undoping in a core–shell structured polypyrrole/carbon nanotube (Ppy@CNT) composite cathode and Li⁺ intercalation/deintercalation in a Fe₃O₄@carbon (C) anode. The hybrid Ppy@CNT is utilized as a promising pseudocapacitive cathode for nonaqueous LIC applications. The Ppy provides high pseudocapacitance via the doping/undoping reaction with PF₆– anions. Meanwhile, the CNT backbone significantly enhances the electrical conductivity. The as-developed composite delivers noteworthy capacities with exceptional stability (98.7 mA h g–¹ at 0.1 A g–¹ and retains 89.7% after cycling at 3 A g–¹ for 1000 times in Li-half cell), which outperforms state-of-art porous carbon cathodes in present LICs. Furthermore, when paired with Fe₃O₄@C anodes, the as-developed LICs demonstrate a superior energy density of 101.0 W h kg–¹ at 2709 W kg–¹ and still maintain 70 W h kg–¹ at an increased power density of 17 186 W kg–¹. The findings of this work provides new knowledge on the cathode materials for LICs.
