A novel electrode for supercapacitors: Spicules-like Ni3S2 shell grown on molybdenum nanoparticles doped nickel foam
In this work, a facile and unique electrode is fabricated by ion implantation and hydrothermal sulfurization methods for the first time. A spicules-like Ni3S2 shell is directly grown on the molybdenum nanoparticles doped nickel foam (MoNPs/NF@Ni3S2), which exhibits a special hierarchical structure. It is employed as the electrode of supercapacitor, exhibiting good electrochemical performance with high areal capacity of 1.06 C cm(-2) (361 C g(-1) ) at 1 mA cm(-2), good rate capability, and long cycling life (168% of the initial capacity) for 7000 cycles at 20 mA cm(-2). Compared with Ni3S2/NF, the electrode possesses better performance, which is attributed to the doped MoNPs, special morphology of Ni3S2, the hierarchical structure, as well as the synergistic effect between Ni3S2 and MoNPs. A symmetric supercapacitor based on MoNPs/NF@Ni(3)S(2 )electrodes maintains 108% of the original capacity after cycling for 7000 cycles at 0.5 mA cm(-2). The results mean that MoNPs/NF@Ni3S2 could be used as a battery-type electrode for supercapacitors.
