Firstly, graphene oxide (GO) film was deposited on graphite substrate by electrophoretic deposition method, and then reduced by subsequent electrochemical reduction of GO to obtain reduced GO (ERGO) film with high electrochemical performance. The morphology, structure and electrochemical performance of the prepared graphene-like film were confirmed by SEM, XRD and FT-IR. These unique materials were found to provide high specific capacitance and good cycling stability. The high specific capacitance of 254 F/g was obtained from cyclic voltammetry measurement at a scan rate of 10 mV/s. When the current density increased to 83.3 A/g, the specific capacitance values still remained 132 F/g. Meanwhile, the high powder density of 39.1 kW/kg was measured at energy density of 11.8 W-h/kg in 1 mol/L H2SO4 solution. Furthermore, at a constant scan rate of 50 mV/s, 97.02% of its capacitance was retained for 1000 cycles. These promising results were attributed to the unique assembly structure of graphene film and low contact resistance, which indicated their potential application to electrochemical capacitors.展开更多

The as-obtained composite had highly surface area, conductivity, and could be used as the electrode for supercapacitors, especially directly used as the active materials in free of binders while the Ti mesh worked as the collector. Plenty of polypyrrole nanoparticles formed on the surface of reduced graphene film, and some fiber-like aggregates could be formed during the polymerization, which worked as the material for pseudo-capacitance. The specific capacitance of the supercapacitor reached 400 F/g and showed high stability with retaining capacitance of 82% after 5000 cycles, indicating that the nanocomposite is a suitable active material for supercapacitors.展开更多

Here we report a facile one-step strategy to prepare mechanically strong and electrically conductive graphene/Ni(OH)2 composite hydrogels with an interconnected porous network. The composite hydrogels were directly used as 3D supercapacitor electrode materials without adding any other binder or conductive additives. An optimized composite hydrogel containing -82 wt.% Ni(OH)2 exhibited a specific capacitance of -1,247 F/g at a scan rate of 5 mV/s and -785 F/g at 40 mV/s (-63% capacitance retention) with excellent cycling stability. The capacity of the 3D hydrogels greatly surpasses that of a physical mixture of graphene sheets and Ni(OH)2 nanoplates (-309 F/g at 40 mV/s). The same strategy was also applied to fabricate graphene-carbon nanotube/Ni(OH)2 ternary composite hydrogels with further improved specific capacitances (-1,352 F/g at 5 mV/s) and rate capability (-66% capacitance retention at 40 mV/s). Both composite hydrogels obtained here can deliver high energy densities (-43 and -47 Wh/kg, respectively) and power densities (-8 and -9 kW/kg, respectively), making them attractive electrode materials for supercapacitor applications. This study opens a new pathway to the design and fabrication of functional 3D graphene composite materials, and can significantly impact broad areas including energy storage and beyond.展开更多

Ultrathin yttrium oxide showed excellent per-formance as the dielectric layer in top-gate device geometry. The structure and dielectric constant of the yttrium oxide layers have been carefully studied. The inverse compressibility retrieved from the quantum capacitance agreed fairly well with the theoretical predictions for the e--e interactions in monolayer graphene at different temperatures. We found that electron-hole puddles played a significant role in the low-density carrier region in graphene. By considering the temperature-dependent charge fluctuation, we established a model to explain the round-off effect originating from the e-e interactions in monolayer graphene near the Dirac point.展开更多

We report a facile two-step hydrothermal method to prepare the orthorhombic niobium oxide(T-Nb2O5) nanosheets supported on nitrogen and sulfur co-doped graphene(T-Nb205/NS-G) as anode for Li-HSCs. X-ray diffraction and morphological analysis show that the T-Nb2O5 nano sheets successfully and uniformly distributed on the NS-G sheets. The T-Nb2O5/NS-G hybrid exhibits great rate capability(capacity retention of63.1% from 0.05 to 5 A g^-1) and superior cycling stability(a low capacity fading of ~6.4% after 1000 cycles at 0.5 A g^-1).The full-cell consisting of T-Nb2O5/NS-G and active carbon(AC) results in high energy density(69.2 W h kg^-1 at0.1 A g^-1), high power density(9.17 kW kg^-1) and excellent cycling stability(95% of the initial energy after 3000 cycles).This excellent performance is mainly attributed to the highly conductive NS-G sheets, the uniformly distributed T-Nb2O5 nano sheets and the synergetic effects between them. These encouraging performances confirm that the obtained TNb2O5/NS-G has promising prospect as the anode for Li-HSCs.展开更多

Here, we grow Ni(OH)2 nanoplates and RuO2 nanoparticles on high quality graphene sheets in order to maximize the specific capacitances of these materials. We then pair up a Ni(OH)2/graphene electrode with a RuO2/graphene electrode to afford a high performance asymmetrical supercapacitor with high energy and power density operating in aqueous solutions at a voltage of -1.5 V. The asymmetrical supercapacitor exhibits significantly higher energy densities than symmetrical RuO2-RuO2 supercapacitors or asymmetrical supercapacitors based on either RuO2- carbon or Ni(OH)2-carbon electrode pairs. A high energy density of -48 W.h/kg at a power density of -0.23 kW/kg, and a high power density of -21 kW/kg at an energy density of N14 W-h/kg have been achieved with our Ni(OH)2/graphene and RuO2/graphene asymmetrical supercapacitor. Thus, pairing up metal-oxide/graphene and metal-hydroxide/graphene hybrid materials for asymmetrical supercapacitors represents a new approach to high performance energy storage.展开更多

Here in this paper, a two-step electrochemical deposition method has been developed to coat Ni fibers with reduced graphene oxide and MnO2 subsequently, giving rise to Ni@reduced-graphene-oxide@MnO2 sheath-core flexible electrode with a high areal specific capacitance of 119.4 mF cm^-2 at a current density of 0.5 mA cm^-2 in 1 mol L^-1 Na2SO4 electrolyte. Using polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)-LiCl as a solid state electrolyte, two Ni@reduced-grapheneoxide@Mn02 flexible electrodes were assembled into a freestanding, lightweight, symmetrical fiber-shaped micro-supercapacitor device with a maximum areal capacitance of26.9 mF cm^-2. A high power density of 0.1 W cm^-3 could be obtained when the energy density was as high as0.27 mW h cm^-3. Moreover, the resulting micro-supercapacitor device also demonstrated good flexibility and high cyclic stability. The present work provides a simple, facile and low-cost method for the fabrication of flexible, lightweight and wearable energy conversion/storage micro-devices with a high-performance.展开更多
