Conducting polymers/oxygen vacancies WO3 vertically nanowire arrays supported on carbon cloth as advanced electrodes for high-performance supercapacitors
Journal of Energy Storage(2023)
摘要
The low energy density of supercapacitors (SCs) is one of the main factors restricting their development. WO3 with high theoretical capacitance is an ideal n-type material for anode electrode, but its narrow potential window and low conductivity are not conducive to the application of high-energy-density SCs. Herein, a high electrochemical activity poly(indole-5-carboxylic acid) (P5-ICA) as p-type material wrapping n-type oxygen vacancies WO3 vertically nanowire arrays supported on carbon cloth is prepared by hydrothermal method and subsequent electrodeposition method. This adhesive free flexible p/n-type hetero-structural P5-ICA@WO3 vertical nanowire array electrode has a three-dimensional porous nanostructure that not only provides a large surface area, but also promotes the penetration of electrolyte ions and the transmission of electrons. It is found that the P5-ICA@WO3 nanowire array with high areal specific capacitance (1430 mF cm−2 at 4 mA cm−2) and long cycle stability (94 % after 6000 cycles) exhibits a widened electrochemical activity window compared to individual material. The symmetrical SCs assembled using P5-ICA@WO3 can provide a high areal energy density of 137.6 μWh cm−2 at the power density of 1.4 mW cm−2, which is significantly higher than the SCs performance of previously used WO3-based electrode materials.
