    We demonstrated the synthesis of undoped and In<sup>3+</sup>-doped WO<inf>3</inf> as an electron acceptor for energy storage applications, by utilizing the electrochemical S<sup>2−</sup> insertion/extraction process at the heterostructure of rhombohedral Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> thin films and hexagonal Cu<inf>7</inf>Te<inf>4</inf> nanocrystals. The cyclic voltammetry of heterostructured electrodes with and without In<sup>3+</sup> doping both showed Faradic pseudo-capacitance behavior based on the oxidation and reduction processes. The largest exchange current density of 3.43 mA/cm<sup>2</sup> was obtained for the heterojunction-structured-Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> thin films and Cu<inf>7</inf>Te<inf>4</inf> nanocrystals with In<sup>3+</sup> doping in the WO<inf>3</inf> electrode. This implies more favorable hydrogen evolution reaction kinetics and higher electrocatalytic activity at the anode. The highest specific capacity of 90.2 mA h/g was obtained at a scan rate of 10 mV/s, with the power density reaching 1.7 kW/kg at the highest energy density value of 18.85 Wh/kg for the In<sup>3+</sup>-doped electrode. The overall results revealed the inherent properties of the new electrode materials, as well as their potential use in energy storage devices or in future electrochemical energy conversion and storage applications involving hydrogen (or oxygen) evolution reactions.

    A facile synthesis approach was used to prepare Sn<sup>2+</sup>-doped Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> nanospheres on a WO<inf>3</inf> electrode, and the pseudo-capacitive property was measured for samples prepared with optimum parameters. SEM micrographs revealed that after the Sn<sup>2+</sup> doping, the morphology of Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> changed from aggregated or network-like nanoparticles to smaller nanospheres with a homogeneous distribution. The X-ray diffraction pattern showed rhombohedral Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> coated on the WO<inf>3</inf> electrode. Due to the more abundant electro-active sites and charge carriers that diffused through the electrolyte to the working electrode, the Sn<sup>2+</sup>-doped Bi<inf>2</inf>Te<inf>3</inf> electrode displayed the highest specific capacity of 41.4 mAh/g at a scan rate 10 mV/s, a power density of 0.63 kW/kg, an energy density of 24.5 Wh/kg, and an LSV breakdown potential of 0.26 V. These materials may be applied in potential pseudo-capacitors and in further energy storage devices.
