In-situ growth of bimetallic sulfide NiCo2S4 nanowire on carbon cloth for asymmetric flexible supercapacitors
2021
Abstract Fully flexible, lightweight, and high-performance supercapacitor was designed, with in-situ grown NiCo2S4 nanowire on activated carbon cloth (CC) by a simple two-step hydrothermal method. Needle-like NiCo2S4 nanowire uniformly arranged on CC substrate, not only increases the sufficient contact area between the electrode and the electrolyte, but also favor rapid electron transfer. Benefitting from these advantages, this designed NiCo2S4@CC electrode expresses high area capacitance of 1568.8 mF cm−2 at 1 mA cm−2 and good capacitance retention with 9.9% capacitance lost after 10000 cycles. Moreover, a flexible asymmetric supercapacitor using NiCo2S4@CC as the anode and Fe2O3@CC as the cathode is assembled, which displays high specific capacitance (343.2 mF cm−2) at 1 mA cm−2, energy density (93.43 µWh cm−2), and power density (700.7 µW cm−2) with the capacitance retention of 81.8% at 20 mA cm−2 after 5000 cycles, proving the feasibility for flexible wearable energy storage device.
