After being annealed at 500 ℃ for 1 h, an electrochemical capacitor material of Co3O4 decorated with Ag2O was obtained. The cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge were used to evaluate the electrochemical properties of the as-prepared products. The results indicated that the as-prepared samples exhibited fine pseudo-capacitive performance, and the surface modifications of Ag2O can significantly increase the capacitance of the Co3O4 material. The specific capacitance of Ag2O/Co3O4 composite electrode was up to 217.6 F·g^-1, which was 3.35 times as high as that of pure Co3O4. Moreover, Ag2O/Co3O4 composite showed an excellent cycle performance, and 65.3% of specific capacitance was maintained after 200 cycles.展开更多
