Potassium-ion capacitor (PIC) is a new type of electrochemical energy storage device, and carbon-based materials are considered as one of the most promising candidate anode materials for K+ storage. However, the migration rate of K+ is slow and the material structure is easy to be damaged during the intercalation and de-intercalation processes because the K+ has a larger radius, resulting in a significant decline in performance. Therefore, the development of low-cost carbon materials to meet the thermodynamic and kinetic requirements of K+ diffusion has become the bottleneck of current development. In this work, the F and N co-doped porous carbon nanosheets (FNCPC) were prepared by direct high-temperature carbonization, in which the low-cost coal pitch as the carbon source, polytetrafluoroethylene as the fluorine source and sodium chloride as the template agent. The structure design of the nanosheet effectively shortens the transport path of ions, and the co-doping of F and N widens the layer spacing of carbon, alleviates the volume expansion problem, and also forms more surface defects, which provides more reactive sites for K+ storage. In addition, electrochemical kinetic analysis and density functional theory (DFT) show that the FNCPC has remarkable pseudocapacitance characteristics and strong K adsorption energy. Benefiting from the synergistic optimization of structure and chemical properties, the FNCPC anode exhibits excellent potassium storage capacity (a high specific capacity of 212.8 mAh•g-1 at 2 A•g-1) and good cyclic stability. Furthermore, the PIC (AC//FNCPC) was constructed by using commercial activated carbon (AC) as cathode electrode and FNCPC as anode electrode, which delivers a maximum energy density of 87.5 Wh•kg-1, and has a capacity retention rate of 86.1% after 3000 cycles, showing a very broad application prospect.
