Three-Dimensional Carbon Nitride Nanowire Scaffold for Flexible Supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: Herein, a 3D composite electrode supported by g-C₃N₄ nanowire framework as scaffold and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT: PSS) as conducting polymer is reported for flexible solid-state electrochemical capacitors. Compared to pure PEDOT: PSS, the composite electrodes have a greatly increased specific surface and showed good electrochemical performance. A specific capacitance of 202?F?g^-1 is achieved, and 83.5% of initial capacitance maintained after 5000?cycles. The device based on the 3D g-C₃N₄/PEDOT: PSS electrode also exhibits good performance in capacitance, flexibility, and cycling stability.

Three-Dimensional Core-Branch ?-Fe2O3@NiO/Carbon Cloth Heterostructured Electrodes for Flexible Supercapacitors.

Project description:A convenient and scalable hydrothermal method was developed for the fabrication of the core-branch Fe2O3@NiO nanorods arrays directly grown on flexible carbon cloth (denoted as Fe2O3@NiO/CC). Such a unique architecture was applied as an electrode of the supercapacitors. As a result, the Fe2O3@NiO/CC exhibited a high areal capacitance ~800 mF cm-2 at 10 mA cm-2, which was about 10 times increase with respect to Fe2O3 nanorods array grown on carbon cloth (Fe2O3/CC). The Fe2O3@NiO/CC also had the long life cycle (96.8 % capacitance retention after 16,000 cycles) and remarkable rate capability (44.0 % capacitance loss at a very large current density of 100 mA cm-2). The superior performance of the Fe2O3@NiO/CC should be ascribed to the reduction of the contact resistance and the free-standing structure of the flexible electrode. This study provides a novel strategy to construct high-performance flexible electrode materials with unique core-branch structure by incorporating two different pseudocapacitive materials.

Bio-derived three-dimensional hierarchical carbon-graphene-TiO2 as electrode for supercapacitors.

Project description:This paper reports a novel loofah-derived hierarchical scaffold to obtain three-dimensional biocarbon-graphene-TiO2 (BC-G-TiO2) composite materials as electrodes for supercapacitors. The loofah scaffold was first loaded with G and TiO2 by immersing, squeezing, and loosening into the mixed solution of graphene oxide and titania, and then carbonized at 900 °C to form the BC-G-TiO2 composite. The synergistic effects of the naturally hierarchical biocarbon structure, graphene, and TiO2 nanoparticles on the electrochemical properties are analyzed. The biocarbon provides a high interconnection and an easy accessibility surface for the electrolyte. Graphene bridged the BC and TiO2 nanoparticles, improved the conductivity of the BC-G-TiO2 composite, and increased the electron transfer efficiency. TiO2 nanoparticles also contributed to the pesudocapacitance and electrochemical stability.

High-performance flexible supercapacitors based on electrochemically tailored three-dimensional reduced graphene oxide networks.

Project description:A simple approach for growing porous electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (pErGO) networks on copper wire, modified with galvanostatically deposited copper foam is demonstrated. The as-prepared pErGO networks on the copper wire are directly used to fabricate solid-state supercapacitor. The pErGO-based supercapacitor can deliver a specific capacitance (Csp) as high as 81±3?F g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 with polyvinyl alcohol/H3PO4 gel electrolyte. The Csp per unit length and area are calculated as 40.5 mF cm-1 and 283.5 mF cm-2, respectively. The shape of the voltammogram retained up to high scan rate of 100 V s-1. The pErGO-based supercapacitor device exhibits noticeably high charge-discharge cycling stability, with 94.5% Csp retained even after 5000 cycles at 5 A g-1. Nominal change in the specific capacitance, as well as the shape of the voltammogram, is observed at different bending angles of the device even after 5000 cycles. The highest energy density of 11.25 W h kg-1 and the highest power density of 5 kW kg-1 are also achieved with this device. The wire-based supercapacitor is scalable and highly flexible, which can be assembled with/without a flexible substrate in different geometries and bending angles for illustrating promising use in smart textile and wearable device.

Flexible Supercapacitors Prepared Using the Peanut-Shell-Based Carbon.

Project description:In this work, we report the fabrication and performance of supercapacitors made from carbonized peanut shells, which are renewable materials with a huge annual yield and are usually discarded directly by people. With proper treatment, peanut shells could be used for many applications. Herein, we demonstrate that the peanut shells treated with carbonization and activation processes not only possess an extremely high surface area but also provide a hierarchical structure for energy storage. The performance of the electrode can be further improved by nitrogen doping and adding graphene oxide to the electrode. The electrode shows a specific capacitance of 289.4 F/g, which can be maintained at an acceptable level even at a high scanning rate. In addition, a good capacitance retention of 92.8% after 5000 test cycles demonstrates that the electrode possesses an excellent electrochemical property.

Flexible Supercapacitors Based on Graphene/Boron Nitride Nanosheets Electrodes and PVA/PEI Gel Electrolytes.

Project description:All-solid-state supercapacitors have gained increasing attention as wearable energy storage devices, partially due to their flexible, safe, and lightweight natures. However, their electrochemical performances are largely hampered by the low flexibility and durability of current polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) based electrolytes. Herein, a novel polyvinyl alcohol-polyethyleneimine (PVA-PEI) based, conductive and elastic hydrogel was devised as an all-in-one electrolyte platform for wearable supercapacitor (WSC). For proof-of-concept, we assembled all-solid-state supercapacitors based on boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS) intercalated graphene electrodes and PVA-PEI based gel electrolyte. Furthermore, by varying the electrolyte ions, we observed synergistic effects between the hydrogel and the electrode materials when KOH was used as electrolyte ions, as the Graphene/BNNS@PVA-PEI-KOH WSCs exhibited a significantly improved areal capacitance of 0.35 F/cm2 and a smaller ESR of 6.02 ohm/cm2. Moreover, due to the high flexibility and durability of the PVA-PEI hydrogel electrolyte, the developed WSCs behave excellent flexibility and cycling stability under different bending states and after 5000 cycles. Therefore, the conductive, yet elastic, PVA-PEI hydrogel represents an attractive electrolyte platform for WSC, and the Graphene/BNNS@PVA-PEI-KOH WSCs shows broad potentials in powering wearable electronic devices.

Three-dimensional skeleton networks of graphene wrapped polyaniline nanofibers: an excellent structure for high-performance flexible solid-state supercapacitors.

Project description:Thin, robust, lightweight, and flexible supercapacitors (SCs) have aroused growing attentions nowadays due to the rapid development of flexible electronics. Graphene-polyaniline (PANI) hybrids are attractive candidates for high performance SCs. In order to utilize them in real devices, it is necessary to improve the capacitance and the structure stability of PANI. Here we report a hierarchical three-dimensional structure, in which all of PANI nanofibers (NFs) are tightly wrapped inside reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheet skeletons, for high-performance flexible SCs. The as-fabricated film electrodes with this unique structure showed a highest gravimetric specific capacitance of 921 F/g and volumetric capacitance of 391 F/cm(3). The assembled solid-state SCs gave a high specific capacitance of 211 F/g (1 A/g), a high area capacitance of 0.9 F/cm(2), and a competitive volumetric capacitance of 25.6 F/cm(3). The SCs also exhibited outstanding rate capability (~75% retention at 20 A/g) as well as excellent cycling stability (100% retention at 10 A/g for 2000 cycles). Additionally, no structural failure and loss of performance were observed under the bending state. This structure design paves a new avenue for engineering rGO/PANI or other similar hybrids for high performance flexible energy storage devices.

Two-Dimensional Mn3O4 Nanowalls Grown on Carbon Fibers as Electrodes for Flexible Supercapacitors.

Project description:Emerging flexible and wearable electronic devices necessitates the development of fiber-type energy storage devices to power them. Supercapacitors received great attention for applications in flexible and wearable devices due to their scalability, safety, and miniature size. Herein, we report the fabrication of a flexible supercapacitor using manganese(II,III) oxide (Mn3O4) nanowalls (NWs) grown by electrochemical deposition on carbon fiber (CF) as electrode-active material. Here, CF serves as both a substrate for the growth of Mn3O4 NWs and a current collector for making a lightweight supercapacitor. Two-dimensional Mn3O4 NWs were uniformly grown on CF with high surface coverage. A three-dimensional nanostructured electrode is obtained using these individual two-dimensional Mn3O4 NWs. The Mn3O4 NWs grown on CF are characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy. A symmetric sandwich-type supercapacitor is fabricated using two-dimensional Mn3O4 NW electrodes in an aqueous 1 M Na2SO4 electrolyte. The Mn3O4 NW supercapacitor electrode exhibits a specific capacitance of 300.7 F g-1 at a scan rate of 5 mV s-1. The assembled symmetric sandwich-type supercapacitor displayed high flexibility even at a bending angle of 180° without altering its performance. The Mn3O4 NW supercapacitor also displayed a long cycle life of 7500 cycles with 100% capacitance retention.

Soft and wrinkled carbon membranes derived from petals for flexible supercapacitors.

Project description:Biomass materials are promising precursors for the production of carbonaceous materials due to their abundance, low cost and renewability. Here, a freestanding wrinkled carbon membrane (WCM) electrode material for flexible supercapacitors (SCs) was obtained from flower petal. The carbon membrane was fabricated by a simple thermal pyrolysis process and further activated by heating the sample in air. As a binder and current collector-free electrode, the activated wrinkled carbon membrane (AWCM) exhibited a high specific capacitance of 332.7?F/g and excellent cycling performance with 92.3% capacitance retention over 10000 cycles. Moreover, a flexible all-solid supercapacitor with AWCM electrode was fabricated and showed a maximum specific capacitance of 154?F/g and great bending stability. The development of this flower petal based carbon membrane provides a promising cost-effective and environmental benign electrode material for flexible energy storage.

Al-doped ZnO/Ag-nanowire Composite Electrodes for Flexible 3-Dimensional Nanowire Solar Cells.

Project description:Silver nanowires in conjunction with sputter-coated Al-doped ZnO (AZO) thin films were used as a composite transparent top electrode for hybrid radial-junction ZnO nanowire/a-Si:H p-i-n thin-film solar cells. Solar cells with the composite nanowire top contacts attained a short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 13.9 mA/cm2 and a fill factor (FF) of 62% on glass substrates while a Jsc of 13.0 mA/cm2 and FF of 62% was achieved on plastic substrates. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the 3-dimensional solar cells improved by up to 60% compared to using AZO electrodes alone due to enhanced coverage of the top electrode over the 3-D structures, decreasing the series resistance of the device by 5×. The composite layer also showed a 10× reduction in sheet resistance compared to the AZO thin-film contact under applied mechanical strain.
