Cactus‐Like NiCoP/NiCo‐OH 3D Architecture with Tunable Composition for High‐Performance Electrochemical Capacitors

To effectively enhance the energy density and overall performance of electrochemical capacitors (ECs), a new strategy is demonstrated to increase both the intrinsic activity of the reaction sites and their density. Herein, nickel cobalt phosphides (NiCoP) with high activity and nickel cobalt hydroxides (NiCo‐OH) with good stability are purposely combined in a hierarchical cactus‐like structure. The hierarchical electrode integrates the advantages of 1D nanospines for effective charge transport, 2D nanoflakes for mechanical stability, and 3D carbon cloth substrate for flexibility. The NiCoP/NiCo‐OH 3D electrode delivers a high specific capacitance of ≈1100 F g^?1, which is around seven times higher than that of bare NiCo‐OH. It also possesses ≈90% capacitance retention after 1000 charge–discharge cycles. An asymmetric supercapacitor composed of NiCoP/NiCo‐OH cathode and metal–organic framework‐derived porous carbon anode achieves a specific capacitance of ≈100 F g^?1, high energy density of ≈34 Wh kg^?1, and excellent cycling stability. The cactus‐like NiCoP/NiCo‐OH 3D electrode presents a great potential for ECs and is promising for other functional applications such as catalysts and batteries.     

Conductive Metal–Organic Framework Nanowire Array Electrodes for High‐Performance Solid‐State Supercapacitors

The application of conventional metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as electrode materials in supercapacitors is largely hindered by their conventionally poor electrical conductivity. This study reports the fabrication of conductive MOF nanowire arrays (NWAs) and the application of them as the sole electrode material for solid‐state supercapacitors. By taking advantage of the nanostructure and making full use of the high porosity and excellent conductivity, the MOF NWAs in solid‐state supercapacitor show the highest areal capacitance and best rate performance of all reported MOF materials for supercapacitors, which is even comparable to most carbon materials.     

Flexible Solid‐State Supercapacitor Based on Graphene‐based Hybrid Films

A flexible solid‐state asymmetric supercapacitor based on bendable film electrodes with 3D expressway‐like architecture of graphenes and “hard nano‐spacer” is fabricated via an extended filtration assisted method. In the designed structure of the positive electrode, graphene sheets are densely packed, and Ni(OH)₂ nanoplates are intercalated in between the densely stacked graphenes. The 3D expressway‐like electrodes exhibit superior supercapacitive performance including high gravimetric capacitance (≈573 F g^‐1), high volumetric capacitance (≈655 F cm^‐3), excellent rate capability, and superior cycling stability. In addition, another hybrid film of graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNT) is fabricated as the negative electrodes for the designed asymmetric device. In the obtained graphene@CNT films, CNTs served as the hard spacer to prevent restacking of graphene sheets but also as a conductive and robust network to facilitate the electrons collection/transport in order to fulfill the demand of high‐rate performance of the asymmetric supercapacitor. Based on these two hybrid electrode films, a solid‐state flexible asymmetric supercapacitor device is assembled, which is able to deliver competitive volumetric capacitance of 58.5 F cm^‐3 and good rate capacity. There is no obvious degradation of the supercapacitor performance when the device is in bending configuration, suggesting the excellent flexibility of the device.     

Flexible MXene/Graphene Films for Ultrafast Supercapacitors with Outstanding Volumetric Capacitance

A strategy to prepare flexible and conductive MXene/graphene (reduced graphene oxide, rGO) supercapacitor electrodes by using electrostatic self‐assembly between positively charged rGO modified with poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) and negatively charged titanium carbide MXene nanosheets is presented. After electrostatic assembly, rGO nanosheets are inserted in‐between MXene layers. As a result, the self‐restacking of MXene nanosheets is effectively prevented, leading to a considerably increased interlayer spacing. Accelerated diffusion of electrolyte ions enables more electroactive sites to become accessible. The freestanding MXene/rGO‐5 wt% electrode displays a volumetric capacitance of 1040 F cm^?3 at a scan rate of 2 mV s^?1 , an impressive rate capability with 61% capacitance retention at 1 V s^?1 and long cycle life. Moreover, the fabricated binder‐free symmetric supercapacitor shows an ultrahigh volumetric energy density of 32.6 Wh L^?1, which is among the highest values reported for carbon and MXene based materials in aqueous electrolytes. This work provides fundamental insight into the effect of interlayer spacing on the electrochemical performance of 2D hybrid materials and sheds light on the design of next‐generation flexible, portable and highly integrated supercapacitors with high volumetric and rate performances.     

Designing a New Generation of Proton‐Exchange Membranes Using Layer‐by‐Layer Deposition of Polyelectrolytes

All fuel cells utilizing the membrane‐electrode assembly have their ion‐conductive membrane sandwiched between bipolar plates. Unfortunately, applying conventional techniques to isolated polyelectrolyte membranes is challenging and difficult. A more practical alternative is to use the layer‐by‐layer assembly technique to fabricate a membrane‐electrode assembly that is technologically relatively simple, economic, and robust. The process presented here paves the way to fabricate ion‐conductive membranes tailored for optimum performance in terms of controlled thickness, structural morphology, and catalyst loading. Composite membranes are constructed through the layered assembly of ionically conductive multilayer thin films atop a porous polycarbonate membrane. Under ambient conditions, a fuel cell using a poly(ethylene oxide)/poly(acrylic acid) (PEO/PAA) composite membrane delivers a maximum power density of 16.5 mW cm^–2 at a relative humidity of 55 %, which is close to that of some commercial fuel cells operating under the same conditions. Further optimization of these systems may lead to new, ultrathin, flexible fuel cells for portable power and micropower applications.

The demand for a new generation of flexible, portable, and high‐capacity power sources increases rapidly with the development of advanced wearable electronic devices. Here we report a simple process for large‐scale fabrication of self‐standing composite film electrodes composed of NiCo₂O₄@carbon nanotube (CNT) for supercapacitors. Among all composite electrodes prepared, the one fired in air displays the best electrochemical behavior, achieving a specific capacitance of 1,590 F g^?1 at 0.5 A g^?1 while maintaining excellent stability. The NiCo₂O₄@CNT/CNT film electrodes are fabricated via stacking NiCo₂O₄@CNT and CNT alternately through vacuum filtration. Lightweight, flexible, and self‐standing film electrodes (≈24.3 µm thick) exhibit high volumetric capacitance of 873 F cm^?3 (with an areal mass of 2.5 mg cm^?2) at 0.5 A g^?1. An all‐solid‐state asymmetric supercapacitor consists of a composite film electrode and a treated carbon cloth electrode has not only high energy density (≈27.6 Wh kg^?1) at 0.55 kW kg^?1 (including the weight of the two electrodes) but also excellent cycling stability (retaining ≈95% of the initial capacitance after 5000 cycles), demonstrating the potential for practical application in wearable devices.     

All‐Solution‐Processed Indium‐Free Transparent Composite Electrodes based on Ag Nanowire and Metal Oxide for Thin‐Film Solar Cells

Fully solution‐processed Al‐doped ZnO/silver nanowire (AgNW)/Al‐doped ZnO/ZnO multi‐stacked composite electrodes are introduced as a transparent, conductive window layer for thin‐film solar cells. Unlike conventional sol–gel synthetic pathways, a newly developed combustion reaction‐based sol–gel chemical approach allows dense and uniform composite electrodes at temperatures as low as 200 °C. The resulting composite layer exhibits high transmittance (93.4% at 550 nm) and low sheet resistance (11.3 Ω sq^‐1), which are far superior to those of other solution‐processed transparent electrodes and are comparable to their sputtered counterparts. Conductive atomic force microscopy reveals that the multi‐stacked metal‐oxide layers embedded with the AgNWs enhance the photocarrier collection efficiency by broadening the lateral conduction range. This as‐developed composite electrode is successfully applied in Cu(In_1‐x,Ga_x)S₂ (CIGS) thin‐film solar cells and exhibits a power conversion efficiency of 11.03%. The fully solution‐processed indium‐free composite films demonstrate not only good performance as transparent electrodes but also the potential for applications in various optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices as a cost‐effective and sustainable alternative electrode.     

One‐Step Electrochemical Synthesis of Graphene/Polyaniline Composite Film and Its Applications

This work describes a new one‐step large‐scale electrochemical synthesis of graphene/polyaniline (PANI) composite films using graphite oxide (GO) and aniline as the starting materials. The size of the film could be controlled by the area of indium tin oxide (ITO). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and ultraviolet–visible absorption spectrum (UV–vis) results demonstrated that the graphene/PANI composite film was successfully synthesized. The obtained graphene/PANI composite film showed large specific area, high conductivity, good biocompatibility, and fast redox properties and had perfect layered and encapsulated structures. Electrochemical experiments indicated that the composite film had high performances and could be widely used in applied electrochemical fields. As a model, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was entrapped onto the film‐modi?ed glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and used to construct a biosensor. The immobilized HRP showed a pair of well‐de?ned redox peaks and high catalytic activity for the reduction of H₂O₂. Furthermore, the graphene/PANI composite film could be directly used as the supercapacitor electrode. The supercapacitor showed a high specific capacitance of 640 F g^?1 with a retention life of 90% after 1000 charge/discharge cycles.     

Mesoporous NiCo2O4 Nanowire Arrays Grown on Carbon Textiles as Binder‐Free Flexible Electrodes for Energy Storage

Binary metal oxides has been regarded as a promising class of electrode materials for high‐performance energy storage devices since it offers higher electrochemical activity and higher capacity than mono‐metal oxide. Besides, rational design of electrode architectures is an effective solution to further enhance electrochemical performance of energy storage devices. Here, the advanced electrode architectures consisting of carbon textiles uniformally covered by mesoporous NiCo₂O₄ nanowire arrays (NWAs) are successfully fabricated by a simple surfactant‐assisted hydrothermal method combined with a short post annealing treatment, which can be directly applied as self‐supported electrodes for energy storage devices, such as Li‐ion batteries, supercapacitors. The as‐prepared mesoporous NiCo₂O₄ nanowires consist of numerous highly crystalline nanoparticles, leaving a large number of mesopores to alleviate the volume change during the charge/discharge process. Electrode architectures presented here promise fast electron transport by direct connection to the growth substrate and facile ion diffusion path provided by both the abundant mesoporous structure in nanowires and large open spaces between neighboring nanowires, which ensures every nanowire participates in the ultrafast electrochemical reaction. Benefiting from the intrinsic materials and architectures features, the unique binder‐free NiCo₂O₄/carbon textiles exhibit high specific capacity/capacitance, excellent rate capability, and cycling stability.     

Sputtered Titanium Carbide Thick Film for High Areal Energy on Chip Carbon‐Based Micro‐Supercapacitors

The areal energy density of on‐chip micro‐supercapacitors should be improved in order to obtain autonomous smart miniaturized sensors. To reach this goal, high surface capacitance electrode (>100 mF cm^?2) has to be produced while keeping low the footprint area. For carbide‐derived carbon (CDC) micro‐supercapacitors, the properties of the metal carbide precursor have to be fine‐tuned to fabricate thick electrodes. The ad‐atoms diffusion process and atomic peening effect occurring during the titanium carbide sputtering process are shown to be the key parameters to produce low stress, highly conductive, and thick TiC films. The sputtered TiC at 10^?3 mbar exhibits a high stress level, limiting the thickness of the TiC‐CDC electrode to 1.5 µm with an areal capacitance that is less than 55 mF cm^?2 in aqueous electrolyte. The pressure increase up to 10^?2 mbar induces a clear reduction of the stress level while the layer thickness increases without any degradation of the TiC electronic conductivity. The volumetric capacitance of the TiC‐CDC electrodes is equal to 350 F cm^?3 regardless of the level of pressure. High values of areal capacitance (>100 mF cm^?2) are achieved, whereas the TiC layer is relatively thick, which paves the way toward high‐performance micro‐supercapacitors.     

Conductive CoOOH as Carbon‐Free Sulfur Immobilizer to Fabricate Sulfur‐Based Composite for Lithium–Sulfur Battery

Lithium–sulfur battery is recognized as one of the most promising energy storage devices, while the application and commercialization are severely hindered by both the practical gravimetric and volumetric energy densities due to the low sulfur content and tap density with lightweight and nonpolar porous carbon materials as sulfur host. Herein, for the first time, conductive CoOOH sheets are introduced as carbon‐free sulfur immobilizer to fabricate sulfur‐based composite as cathode for lithium–sulfur battery. CoOOH sheet is not only a good sulfur‐loading matrix with high electron conductivity, but also exhibits outstanding electrocatalytic activity for the conversion of soluble lithium polysulfide. With an ultrahigh sulfur content of 91.8 wt% and a tap density of 1.26 g cm^?3, the sulfur/CoOOH composite delivers high gravimetric capacity and volumetric capacity of 1199.4 mAh g^?1_‐composite and 1511.3 mAh cm^?3 at 0.1C rate, respectively. Meanwhile, the sulfur‐based composite presents satisfactory cycle stability with a slow capacity decay rate of 0.09% per cycle within 500 cycles at 1C rate, thanks to the strong interaction between CoOOH and soluble polysulfides. This work provides a new strategy to realize the combination of gravimetric energy density, volumetric energy density, and good electrochemical performance of lithium–sulfur battery.     

Ultrathin MnO2/Graphene Oxide/Carbon Nanotube Interlayer as Efficient Polysulfide‐Trapping Shield for High‐Performance Li–S Batteries

Ultrathin MnO₂/graphene oxide/carbon nanotube (G/M@CNT) interlayers are developed as efficient polysulfide‐trapping shields for high‐performance Li–S batteries. A simple layer‐by‐layer procedure is used to construct a sandwiched vein–membrane interlayer of thickness 2 µm and areal density 0.104 mg cm^?2 by loading MnO₂ nanoparticles and graphene oxide (GO) sheets on superaligned carbon nanotube films. The G/M@CNT interlayer provides a physical shield against both polysulfide shuttling and chemical adsorption of polysulfides by MnO₂ nanoparticles and GO sheets. The synergetic effect of the G/M@CNT interlayer enables the production of Li–S cells with high sulfur loadings (60–80 wt%), a low capacity decay rate (?0.029% per cycle over 2500 cycles at 1 C), high rate performance (747 mA h g^?1 at a charge rate of 10 C), and a low self‐discharge rate with high capacity retention (93.0% after 20 d rest). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and scanning electron microscopy observations of the Li anodes after cycling confirm the polysulfide‐trapping ability of the G/M@CNT interlayer and show its potential in developing high‐performance Li–S batteries.     

Yolk–Shell Structured FeP@C Nanoboxes as Advanced Anode Materials for Rechargeable Lithium‐/Potassium‐Ion Batteries

Maintaining structural stability and alleviating the intrinsic poor conductivity of conversion‐type reaction anode materials are of great importance for practical application. Introducing void space and a highly conductive host to accommodate the volume changes and enhance the conductivity would be a smart design to achieve robust construction; effective electron and ion transportation, thus, lead to prolonged cycling life and excellent rate performance. Herein, uniform yolk–shell FeP@C nanoboxes (FeP@CNBs) with the inner FeP nanoparticles completely protected by a thin and self‐supported carbon shell are synthesized through a phosphidation process with yolk–shell Fe₂O₃@CNBs as a precursor. The volumetric variation of the inner FeP nanoparticles during cycling is alleviated, and the FeP nanoparticles can expand without deforming the carbon shell, thanks to the internal void space of the unique yolk–shell structure, thus preserving the electrode microstructure. Furthermore, the presence of the highly conductive carbon shell enhances the conductivity of the whole electrode. Benefiting from the unique design of the yolk–shell structure, the FeP@CNBs manifests remarkable lithium/potassium storage performance.     

Evaporation‐Induced Coating and Self‐Assembly of Ordered Mesoporous Carbon‐Silica Composite Monoliths with Macroporous Architecture on Polyurethane Foams

A facile approach of solvent‐evaporation‐induced coating and self‐assembly is demonstrated for the mass preparation of ordered mesoporous carbon‐silica composite monoliths by using a polyether polyol‐based polyurethane (PU) foam as a sacrificial scaffold. The preparation is carried out using resol as a carbon precursor, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as a silica source and Pluronic F127 triblock copolymer as a template. The PU foam with its macrostructure provides a large, 3D, interconnecting interface for evaporation‐induced coating of the phenolic resin‐silica block‐copolymer composites and self‐assembly of the mesostructure, and endows the composite monoliths with a diversity of macroporous architectures. Small‐angle X‐ray scattering, X‐ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy results indicate that the obtained composite monoliths have an ordered mesostructure with 2D hexagonal symmetry (p6m) and good thermal stability. By simply changing the mass ratio of the resol to TEOS over a wide range (10–90%), a series of ordered, mesoporous composite foams with different compositions can be obtained. The composite monoliths with hierarchical macro/mesopores exhibit large pore volumes (0.3–0.8 cm³ g^?1), uniform pore sizes (4.2–9.0 nm), and surface areas (230–610 m² g^?1). A formation process for the hierarchical porous composite monoliths on the struts of the PU foam through the evaporation‐induced coating and self‐assembly method is described in detail. This simple strategy performed on commercial PU foam is a good candidate for mass production of interface‐assembly materials.     

Nanoengineered Polypyrrole‐Coated Fe2O3@C Multifunctional Composites with an Improved Cycle Stability as Lithium‐Ion Anodes

Novel multifunctional composites composed of highly dispersed nanosized Fe₂O₃ particles, a tubular mesoporous carbon host, and a conductive polypyrrole (PPy) sealing layer are hierarchically assembled via two facile processes, including bottom‐up introduction of Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles in tubular mesoporous carbons, followed by in situ surface sealing with the PPy coating. Fe₂O₃ particles are well‐dispersed within the carbon matrix and PPy is spatially and selectively coated onto the external surface and the pore entrances of the Fe₂O₃@C composite, thereby bridging the composite particles together into a larger unit. As an anode material for Li‐ion batteries (LIBs), the PPy‐coated Fe₂O₃@C composite exhibits stable cycle performance. Additionally, the PPy‐coated Fe₂O₃@C composite also possesses fast electrode reaction kinetics, high Fe₂O₃ use efficiency, and large volumetric capacity. The excellent electrochemical performance is associated with a synergistic effect of the highly porous carbon matrix and the conducting PPy sealing layer. Such multifunctional configuration prevents the aggregation of NPs and maintains the structural integrity of active materials, in addition to effectively enhancing the electronic conductivity and warranting the stability of as‐formed solid electrolyte interface (SEI) films. This nanoengineering strategy might open new avenues for the design of other multifunctional composite architectures as electrode materials in order to achieve high‐performance LIBs.     

Multicomponent Hierarchical Cu‐Doped NiCo‐LDH/CuO Double Arrays for Ultralong‐Life Hybrid Fiber Supercapacitor

Fiber supercapacitors have aroused great interest in the field of portable and wearable electronic devices. However, the restrained surface area of fibers and limited reaction kinetics of active materials are unfavorable for performance enhancement. Herein, an efficient multicomponent hierarchical structure is constructed by integrating the Cu‐doped cobalt copper carbonate hydroxide@nickel cobalt layered double hydroxide (CCCH@NiCo‐LDH) core–shell nanowire arrays (NWAs) on Cu fibers with highly conductive Au‐modified CuO nanosheets (CCCH@NiCo‐LDH NWAs@Au–CuO/Cu) via a novel in situ corrosion growth method. This multicomponent hierarchical structure contributes to a large accessible surface area, which results in sufficient permeation of the electrolyte. The Cu dopant could reduce the work function and facilitate fast charge transfer kinetics. Therefore, the effective ion diffusion and electron conduction will facilitate the electrochemical reaction kinetics of the electrode. Benefiting from this unique structure, the electrode delivers a high specific capacitance (1.97 F cm^?2/1237 F g^?1/193.3 mAh g^?1) and cycling stability (90.8% after 30 000 cycles), exhibiting superb performance compared with most oxide‐based fiber electrodes. Furthermore, the hybrid fiber supercapacitor of CCCH@NiCo‐LDH NWAs@Au–CuO/Cu//VN/carbon fibers is fabricated, providing a remarkable maximal energy density of 34.97 Wh kg^?1 and a power density of 13.86 kW kg^?1, exhibiting a great potential in high‐performance fiber‐shape energy‐related systems.     

Flexible and Self‐Powered Lateral Photodetector Based on Inorganic Perovskite CsPbI3–CsPbBr3 Heterojunction Nanowire Array

Self‐powered perovskite photodetectors mainly adopt the vertical heterojunction structure composed of active layer, electron–hole transfer layers, and electrodes, which results in the loss of incident light and interfacial accumulation of defects. To address these issues, a self‐powered lateral photodetector based on CsPbI₃–CsPbBr₃ heterojunction nanowire arrays is designed on both a rigid glass and a flexible polyethylene naphthalate substrate using an in situ conversion and mask‐assisted electrode fabrication method. Through adding the polyvinyl pyrrolidone and optimizing the concentration of precursors under the pressure‐assisted moulding process, both the crystallinity and stability of perovskite nanowire array are improved. The nanowire array–based lateral device shows a high responsivity of 125 mA W^?1 and a fast rise and decay time of 0.7 and 0.8 ms under a self‐powered operation condition. This work provides a new strategy to fabricate perovskite heterojunction nanoarrays towards self‐powered photodetection.     

General Method for Large‐Area Films of Carbon Nanomaterials and Application of a Self‐Assembled Carbon Nanotube Film as a High‐Performance Electrode Material for an All‐Solid‐State Supercapacitor

Rational assembly of carbon nanostructures into large‐area films is a key step to realize their applications in ubiquitous electronics and energy devices. Here, a self‐assembly methodology is devised to organize diverse carbon nanostructures (nanotubes, dots, microspheres, etc.) into homogeneous films with potentially infinite lateral dimensions. On the basis of studies of the redox reactions in the systems and the structures of films, the spontaneous deposition of carbon nanostructures onto the surface of the copper substrate is found to be driven by the electrical double layer between copper and solution. As a notable example, the as‐assembled multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) films display exceptional properties. They are a promising material for flexible electronics with superior electrical and mechanical compliance characteristics. Finally, two kinds of all‐solid‐state supercapacitors based on the self‐assembled MWCNT films are fabricated. The supercapacitor using carbon cloth as the current collector delivers an energy density of 3.5 Wh kg^?1 and a power density of 28.1 kW kg^?1, which are comparable with the state‐of‐the‐art supercapacitors fabricated by the costly single‐walled carbon nanotubes and arrays. The supercapacitor free of foreign current collector is ultrathin and shows impressive volumetric energy density (0.58 mWh cm^?3) and power density (0.39 W cm^?3) too.

In this study, self‐stacked solvated graphene (SSG) films are reported that have been prepared by a facile vacuum filtration method as the free‐standing electrode for flexible solid‐state supercapacitors. The highly hydrated SSG films have low mass loading, high flexibility, and high electrical conductivity. The flexible solid‐state supercapacitors based on SSG films exhibit excellent capacitive characteristics with a high gravimetric specific capacitance of 245 F g^?1 and good cycling stability of 10 000 cycles. Furthermore, the flexible solid‐state supercapacitors are integrated with high performance perovskite hybrid solar cells (pero‐HSCs) to build self‐powered electronics. It is found that the solid‐state supercapacitors can be charged by pero‐HSCs and discharged from 0.75 V. These results demonstrate that the self‐powered electronics by integration of the flexible solid‐state supercapacitors with pero‐HSCs have great potential applications in storage of solar energy and in flexible electronics, such as portable and wearable personal devices.     

Layer‐by‐Layer Assembly of 3D Tissue Constructs with Functionalized Graphene

Carbon‐based nanomaterials have been considered promising candidates to mimic certain structure and function of native extracellular matrix materials for tissue engineering. Significant progress has been made in fabricating carbon nanoparticle‐incorporated cell culture substrates, but only a limited number of studies have been reported on the development of 3D tissue constructs using these nanomaterials. Here, a novel approach to engineer 3D multilayer constructs using layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly of cells separated with self‐assembled graphene oxide (GO)‐based thin films is presented. The GO‐based structures are shown to serve as cell adhesive sheets that effectively facilitate the formation of multilayer cell constructs with interlayer connectivity. By controlling the amount of GO deposited in forming the thin films, the thickness of the multilayer tissue constructs could be tuned with high cell viability. Specifically, this approach could be useful for creating dense and tightly connected cardiac tissues through the co‐culture of cardiomyocytes and other cell types. In this work, the fabrication of stand‐alone multilayer cardiac tissues with strong spontaneous beating behavior and programmable pumping properties is demonstrated. Therefore, this LbL‐based cell construct fabrication approach, utilizing GO thin films formed directly on cell surfaces, has great potential in engineering 3D tissue structures with improved organization, electrophysiological function, and mechanical integrity.
