    Reduced graphene oxide doped tellurium nanotubes for high performance supercapacitor

    Supercapacitors have been achieving great interest in energy storage systems for the past couple of decades. Such devices with superior performance, mainly, depending on the material architecture of the electrodes. We report on the preparation of Tellurium nanotubes (Te-tubes diameter ?100�nm and length ?700�nm), with variable doping of conducting network reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to fabricate high-performance electrode characteristics of rGO @ Te. The prepared material was characterized using XRD, FTIR, FESEM, and Raman spectroscopy techniques, including Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, Barrett-Joyner-Halenda measurements. FTIR study revealed that 15% rGO @ Te has a wide C-O vibration band at ? 1,100�1,300�cm?1, over other compositions. FESEM study shows the Te-tubes dispersion in rGO layers. The EDX study revealed that 15% of the composition has an optimistic concentration of C and O elements. In other compositions, either at lower/higher rGO concentration, an uneven count of C and O is observed. These support efficient charge dynamics to achieve superior ultra-capacitor characteristics, thereby achieving specific capacitance Csp 170 + F/g @ 10�mV/s in a symmetric configuration. The reported values are thirty times higher than pristine Te-tubes (?5�F/g). This finding suggests that rGO @ Te is a promising candidate for supercapacitor.

    Construction of three-dimensional marigold flower-shaped Ni3V2O8 for efficient solid-state supercapacitor applications
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2022-06-13T00:00:00) Haldar, Krishna K.; Biswas, Rathindranath; Arya, Anil; Ahmed, Imtiaz; Tanwar, Shweta; Sharma, Achchhe Lal
    Development of binary spinel-type mixed metal oxide and fabrication various morphological heterostructure nanomaterials having two distinct metals paid a wide attention in emerging field. Here, we prepared three-dimensional (3D) marigold flower-like Ni3V2O8 structure via a simple and facile technique for electrochemical supercapacitor applications. 3D Ni3V2O8 with thick petals as cathode materials exhibits high specific capacitance of 263.12 F g?1 at a scan rate of 0.5�mA cm?2. The high energy density of 32.98 W h kg?1 at power density of 189.96 W kg?1 is obtained by the cathode formation of marigold flower-shaped Ni3V2O8, indicating excellent ions accessibility and large charge storage ability of Ni3V2O8 structure. It is also observed that even after 5000 cycles charging-discharging profile analysis, Ni3V2O8 cathode retains 32% of its initial capacitance along with 100% Coulombic efficiency. This higher capacitance retention strengthens its adoption as a potential candidate for supercapacitor application. � 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
