The Co3O4@ZnCo2O4 hybrid NWAs exhibited excellent electrochemical performances with a high specific capacity of 1,240.5 C g^-1 at a current density of 2 mA cm^-2, with rate capability of 59.0%shifting from 2 to 30 mA cm^-2, and only a 9.1% loss of its capacity even after 3,000 cycles at a consistent current density of 10 mA cm^-2. An asymmetric supercapacitor（Co3O4@ZnCo2O4 NWAs｜｜activated carbon） was fabricated and exhibited a high specific capacity of 168 C g^-1 at a current density of 1 A g^-1. And a preferable energy density of 37.3 W h kg^-1 at a power density of 800 W kg^-1 was obtained. The excellent electrochemical performances indicate the promising potential application of the hierarchical mesoporous Co3O4@ZnCo2O4 hybrid NWAs in energy storage field.展开更多
