Hierarchical Co3O4@Ni(OH)(2) core-shell nanosheet arrays for isolated all- solid state supercapacitor electrodes with superior electrochemical performance
Due to the unique properties of two-dimensional nanomaterials, an attempt to fabricate core-shell materials based on two-dimensional nanomaterials for supercapacitor is provided. Employing hydrothermal reactions, Co3O4@Ni(OH)(2) nanosheet core-shell structure, directly grown onto the surface of nickel foam substrate, was successfully fabricated with enhanced electrochemical properties. Ni(OH)(2) nanosheets anchored on Co3O4 with two-dimensional structure effectively facilitate convenient ion diffusion and increase the active surface reacting with electrolyte. The as-fabricated material displays outstanding electrochemical performance, including high specific capacitance (1306 F g(-1)), fast charge -discharge rate and excellent cycling Stability. Furthermore, an all solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor, based on Co3O4@Ni (OH)(2) and active carbon as positive and negative electrodes respectively, was also assembled, exhibiting a maximum energy density of 40 Wh kg(-1) and high power density of 3455 W kg(-1) as well as advantageous cycling stability (90.5% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles).
