Misfit-Layered Cobaltite Ca(3)Co(4)O(9+Delta)As A New Electrode For Supercapacitor With Excellent Cycling Stability
JOURNAL OF ALLOYS AND COMPOUNDS(2019)
摘要
One of the major challenges for transition metal used as supercapacitor electrode is their poor electrical conductivity. In this study, misfit-layered cobaltite Ca3Co4O9+delta (CCO) oxide is successfully synthesized using sol-gel method. The structure, morphology and surface composition of the obtained CCO powder are characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement. Herein the CCO exhibits a high electrical conductivity of 62.0 S cm(-1) at room temperature. The prepared CCO electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge method to evaluate its electrochemical performances. The CCO electrode displays good capacitance features with a mass specific capacitance of 229.3 F g(-1) at a scanning rate of 2 mV s(-1), which are mainly due to its high electrical conductivity and unique layered structure. Furthermore, the CCO electrode shows outstanding cycling performance with 107% capacitance retention after 44 000 cycles. More importantly, the bulk CCO can be directly used as free-standing electrode for electrochemical supercapacitors with an area specific capacitance (340 mF cm(-2)) and excellent cycling stability.
