ABSTRACT
This work reports the rational design of MnOx nanorods on 3D crushed reduced graphene oxide (MnOx/C-rGO) by chemical reduction of Ni-incorporated graphene oxide (GO) followed by chemical etching to remove Ni. The resulting MnOx/C-rGO composite synergistically integrates the electronic properties and geometry structure of MnOx and 3D C-rGO. As a result, MnOx/C-rGO shows a significantly higher specific capacitance (Csp) of 863 F g-1 than MnOx/2D graphene sheets (MnOx/S-rGO) (373 F g-1) and MnOx (200 F g-1) at a current density of 0.2 A g-1. Furthermore, when assembled into symmetric supercapacitors, the MnOx/C-rGO-based device delivers a higher Csp (288 F g-1) than MnOx/S-rGO-based device (75 F g-1) at a current density of 0.3 A g-1. The superior capacitive performance of the MnOx/C-rGO-based symmetric device is attributed to the enlarged accessible surface, reduced lamellar stacking of graphene, and improved ionic transport provided by the 3D architecture of MnOx/C-rGO. In addition, the MnOx/C-rGO-based device exhibits an energy density of 23 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 113 Wkg-1, and long-term cycling stability, demonstrating its promising potential for practical application.
