摘要
Manganese dioxide was synthesized by electrodeposition method with Mn (CH3COO)24H2O as a raw material. La(NO3)3?6H2O was doped in electroyte during the preparing process to improve the performance of MnO2 electrodes. The micrographs, crystal structure and element content of electrodes were analyzed by SEM, XRD and atomic absorption spectroscopy, respectively. It is found that the La content ratio in the dioxide can be easily controlled by adjusting the composition of the plating solution. Appropriate amount of doped La can increase the surface area of Mn/La materials, resulting in the supercapacitive behavior enhancement. Electrochemical tests show that the specific capacitance is significantely increased from 198.72 F?g-1 to 276.60 F?g-1 by La-doping.
