Flexible supercapacitors, a state‐of‐the‐art material, have emerged with the potential to enable major advances in for cutting‐edge electronic applications. Flexible supercapacitors are governed by the fundamentals standard for the conventional capacitors but provide high flexibility, high charge storage and low resistance of electro active materials to achieve high capacitance performance. Conducting polymers (CPs) are among the most potential pseudocapacitor materials for the foundation of flexible supercapacitors, motivating the existing energy storage devices toward the future advanced flexible electronic applications due to their high redox active‐specific capacitance and inherent elastic polymeric nature. This review focuses on different types of CPs‐based supercapacitor, the relevant fabrication methods and designing concepts. It describes recent developments and remaining challenges in this field, and its impact on the future direction of flexible supercapacitor materials and relevant device fabrications.

Photocatalytic formation of hydrocarbons using solar energy via artificial photosynthesis is a highly desirable renewable-energy source for replacing conventional fossil fuels. Using an l-cysteine-based hydrothermal process, here we synthesize a carbon-doped SnS₂ (SnS₂-C) metal dichalcogenide nanostructure, which exhibits a highly active and selective photocatalytic conversion of CO₂ to hydrocarbons under visible-light. The interstitial carbon doping induced microstrain in the SnS₂ lattice, resulting in different photophysical properties as compared with undoped SnS₂. This SnS₂-C photocatalyst significantly enhances the CO₂ reduction activity under visible light, attaining a photochemical quantum efficiency of above 0.7%. The SnS₂-C photocatalyst represents an important contribution towards high quantum efficiency artificial photosynthesis based on gas phase photocatalytic CO₂ reduction under visible light, where the in situ carbon-doped SnS₂ nanostructure improves the stability and the light harvesting and charge separation efficiency, and significantly enhances the photocatalytic activity.
