description Summary: Micro-supercapacitors (MSCs) stand out in the field of micro energy storage devices due to their high power density, long cycle life, and environmental friendliness. The key to improving the electrochemical performance of MSCs is the selection of appropriate electrode materials. To date, both the composition and structure of electrode materials in MSCs have become a hot research topic, and it is urgent to compose a review to highlight the most important research achievements, major challenges, opportunities, and encouraging perspectives in this field. In this review, research background of MSCs is first reviewed followed by their working principles, structural classifications, and physiochemical and electrochemical characterization techniques. Next, various materials and preparation methods are summarized, and the relationship between the MSC performance and structure and composition of materials are discussed in depth. Finally, this review provides a comprehensive suggestion on accelerating the development of electrode materials to facilitate the commercialization of MSCs.
