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

ABSTRACT: 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.

Hierarchical WS2@NiCo2O4 Core-shell Heterostructure Arrays Supported on Carbon Cloth as High-Performance Electrodes for Symmetric Flexible Supercapacitors.

Project description:Nowadays, rationally preparing heterostructure materials can not only make up for the shortage of individual components, but also exert unexpected performance through synergistic interactions between the components. Herein, a core-shell of WS2@NiCo2O4 screw-like heterostructure arrays grown on carbon cloth (CC) was prepared by a two-step solvothermal method for supercapacitors. As a binder-free flexible electrode, a high areal capacitance of 2449.9 mF cm-2 can be achieved for WS2@NiCo2O4/CC at a current density of 1 mA cm-2. Benefiting from the core-shell of the WS2@NiCo2O4 heterostructure, the capacitive property of the flexible WS2@NiCo2O4/CC electrode is better than those of WS2/CC and NiCo2O4/CC electrodes. Based on WS2@NiCo2O4/CC electrodes, the assembled flexible solid-state symmetric supercapacitor (FSS) device shows a high energy density of ?45.67 W h kg-1 at a power density of 992.83 W kg-1. Meantime, the WS2@NiCo2O4/CC-assembled FSS device also exhibits high cycling stability with an excellent capacity retention of ?85.59% after 5000 cycles.

Three-Dimensional Porous Ti?C?Tx-NiO Composite Electrodes with Enhanced Electrochemical Performance for Supercapacitors.

Project description:Ti?C?Tx and Ti?C?Tx-NiO composites with three-dimensional (3D) porous networks were successfully fabricated via vacuum freeze-drying. The microstructure, absorption, and electrochemical properties of the developed composites were investigated. Nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticles could be evenly distributed on the three-dimensional network of three-dimensional Ti?C?Tx using solution processing. When employed as electrochemical capacitor electrodes in 1 M environmentally friendly sodium sulfate, Na?SO?, solution, the three-dimensional porous Ti?C?Tx-NiO composite electrodes exhibited considerable volume specific capacitance as compared to three-dimensional porous Ti?C?Tx. The three-dimensional porous Ti?C?Tx-NiO composite delivered a remarkable cycling performance with a capacitance retention of up to 114% over 2500 cycles. The growth trend of the capacitance with NiO content shows that nickel oxide plays a crucial role in the composite electrodes. These results present a roadmap for the development of convenient and economical supercapacitors in consideration with the possibilities of morphological control and the extensibility of the process.

Highly flexible dye-sensitized solar cells produced by sewing textile electrodes on cloth.

Project description:Textile forms of solar cells possess special advantages over other types of solar cells, including their light weight, high flexibility, and mechanical robustness. Recent demand for wearable devices has promoted interest in the development of high-efficiency textile-based solar cells for energy suppliers. However, the weaving process occurs under high-friction, high-tension conditions that are not conducive to coated solar-cell active layers or electrodes deposited on the wire or strings. Therefore, a new approach is needed for the development of textile-based solar cells suitable for woven fabrics for wide-range application. In this report, we present a highly flexible, efficient DSSC, fabricated by sewing textile-structured electrodes onto casual fabrics such as cotton, silk, and felt, or paper, thereby forming core integrated DSSC structures with high energy-conversion efficiency (~5.8%). The fabricated textile-based DSSC devices showed high flexibility and high performance under 4-mm radius of curvature over thousands of deformation cycles. Considering the vast number of textile types, our textile-based DSSC devices offer a huge range of applications, including transparent, stretchable, wearable devices.

Solution growth of NiO nanosheets supported on Ni foam as high-performance electrodes for supercapacitors.

Project description:Well-aligned nickel oxide (NiO) nanosheets with the thickness of a few nanometers supported on a flexible substrate (Ni foam) have been fabricated by a hydrothermal approach together with a post-annealing treatment. The three-dimensional NiO nanosheets were further used as electrode materials to fabricate supercapacitors, with high specific capacitance of 943.5, 791.2, 613.5, 480, and 457.5 F g(-1) at current densities of 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 A g(-1), respectively. The NiO nanosheets combined well with the substrate. When the electrode material was bended, it can still retain 91.1% of the initial capacitance after 1,200 charging/discharging cycles. Compared with Co3O4 and NiO nanostructures, the specific capacitance of NiO nanosheets is much better. These characteristics suggest that NiO nanosheet electrodes are promising for energy storage application with high power demands.

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.

Flexible Asymmetric Supercapacitors with Ultrahigh Energy Density through Synergistic Design of Electrodes.

Project description:Despite being among the most researched energy storage devices, supercapacitors have often suffered from their relatively low operating voltage and energy density, which greatly limit their practical applications. In this work, asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) are developed by synergistically designing carbon nanotube composite electrodes with 3D porous structures. The resultant ASC devices exhibit an extended operating voltage of 1.8 V, much higher than that of symmetric supercapacitors (?1.0 V). Significantly, the obtained ASC devices deliver ultrahigh volumetric energy density as high as 19.8 mWh cm-3 (corresponding to an areal energy density of 198 µWh cm-2), which is the highest value among reported ASC devices. In addition, the ASC devices not only possess outstanding cycling stability and long self-discharging time, but also exhibit excellent mechanical flexibility under any bending states, even over 5000 bending cycles. The demonstrated flexible ASC devices with high performance are promising to be used as power sources for next-generation portable and wearable electronics.

CNT/High Mass Loading MnO2/Graphene-Grafted Carbon Cloth Electrodes for High-Energy Asymmetric Supercapacitors.

Project description:Flexible supercapacitor electrodes with high mass loading are crucial for obtaining favorable electrochemical performance but still challenging due to sluggish electron and ion transport. Herein, rationally designed CNT/MnO2/graphene-grafted carbon cloth electrodes are prepared by a "graft-deposit-coat" strategy. Due to the large surface area and good conductivity, graphene grafted on carbon cloth offers additional surface areas for the uniform deposition of MnO2 (9.1 mg cm-2) and facilitates charge transfer. Meanwhile, the nanostructured MnO2 provides abundant electroactive sites and short ion transport distance, and CNT coated on MnO2 acts as interconnected conductive "highways" to accelerate the electron transport, significantly improving redox reaction kinetics. Benefiting from high mass loading of electroactive materials, favorable conductivity, and a porous structure, the electrode achieves large areal capacitances without compromising rate capability. The assembled asymmetric supercapacitor demonstrates a wide working voltage (2.2 V) and high energy density of 10.18 mWh cm-3.

Co?O?@CoS Core-Shell Nanosheets on Carbon Cloth for High Performance Supercapacitor Electrodes.

Project description:In this work, a two-step electrodeposition strategy is developed for the synthesis of core-shell Co?O?@CoS nanosheet arrays on carbon cloth (CC) for supercapacitor applications. Porous Co?O? nanosheet arrays are first directly grown on CC by electrodeposition, followed by the coating of a thin layer of CoS on the surface of Co?O? nanosheets via the secondary electrodeposition. The morphology control of the ternary composites can be easily achieved by altering the number of cyclic voltammetry (CV) cycles of CoS deposition. Electrochemical performance of the composite electrodes was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. The results demonstrate that the Co?O?@CoS/CC with 4 CV cycles of CoS deposition possesses the largest specific capacitance 887.5 F·g-1 at a scan rate of 10 mV·s-1 (764.2 F·g-1 at a current density of 1.0 A·g-1), and excellent cycling stability (78.1% capacitance retention) at high current density of 5.0 A·g-1 after 5000 cycles. The porous nanostructures on CC not only provide large accessible surface area for fast ions diffusion, electron transport and efficient utilization of active CoS and Co?O?, but also reduce the internal resistance of electrodes, which leads to superior electrochemical performance of Co?O?@CoS/CC composite at 4 cycles of CoS deposition.
