Self-assembled Mo doped Ni-MOF nanosheets based electrode material for high performance battery-supercapacitor hybrid device
The application of MOF materials in supercapacitors has been greatly restricted due to the poor conductivity and structural stability. Given that, this work improves the conductivity and stability of Ni-MOF by self-assembled strategy. We report here the Mo-doped Ni-MOF nanosheets (M-NMN), in which the Mo-based clusters are encapsulated in the holes of the Ni-MOF frame structure by self-assembly. The results show that the M-NMN-1 material with a Mi/Mo molar ratio of 1: 1 exhibits an excellent electrochemical performance. Furthermore, the nanosheet structure of the M-NMN-1 materials acts as a "superhigh way" for charge transport to accelerate charge transfer rate and enhance the conductivity of the electrode materials. As-prepared M-NMN-1 electrode material exhibits high specific capacity of 802 C g(-1) at 1 A g(-1). Furthermore, assembled battery-supercapacitor hybrid device exhibits an excellent energy density of 59 Wh kg(-1) at a power density of 802 W kg(-1), and superior cycle retention of 93% after 20,000 cycles.
