Abstract

Abstract Ion/electron‐coupling logic operation is recognized as the most promising approach to achieving in‐depth brain‐inspired computing, but the lack of high‐performance ion/electron‐coupling devices with high operating frequencies much restricts the fast development of this field. Accordingly, we herein report an orthorhombic niobium pentoxide ( T ‐Nb 2 O 5 ) based lithium‐ion capacitor diode (CAPode) that possesses thoroughly improved performances to achieve multifrequency ion/electron‐coupling logic operations. Specifically, benefiting from the unique crystal structure and fast ion‐transport topology of T ‐Nb 2 O 5 , the constructed CAPode exhibits a high response frequency of up to 122 Hz, over three orders of magnitude higher than those of the state‐of‐the‐art CAPodes. Meanwhile, the T ‐Nb 2 O 5 based CAPode delivers a record‐high rectification ratio of 108, a high specific capacity of 390 C g −1 , a wide voltage window of −1.5–1.5 V, and a superior cycling stability over 2000 cycles. Combining these performance advantages, the T ‐Nb 2 O 5 based CAPode is demonstrated to be fully competent in typical AND and OR logic gates over a wide frequency range of 1–100 Hz, validating great potential in the burgeoning field of multifrequency ion/electron‐coupling logic operations.
