Electrochemical performance of symmetric supercapacitor based on Li4Mn5O12 electrode in Li2SO4 electrolyte
2011
Abstract In this paper, spinel Li 4 Mn 5 O 12 electrode material was prepared by a citric-acid-assisted combustion method. The structure and morphology of Li 4 Mn 5 O 12 were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron tunneling electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that the Li 4 Mn 5 O 12 powders were nano-sized particles. XRD Rietveld refinement gives the crystal structure of prepared sample. Electrochemical performance of Li 4 Mn 5 O 12 electrode was studied by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and galvanostatic charge/discharge measurements. Li 4 Mn 5 O 12 /Li 4 Mn 5 O 12 symmetric supercapacitor was fabricated at the first time. The maximum specific capacitance was 69 F g −1 in the potential range of 0–1.4 V in 1 mol L −1 Li 2 SO 4 electrolyte. The energy density was 67.6 W h kg −1 at a power density of 493.8 W kg −1 based on the total weight of the active electrode materials.
