摘要
An asymmetrical supercapacitor （ASC）, comprising reduced graphene oxide （rGO）-encapsulated nickel phosphite hollow microspheres （NPOH-0.5@rGO） as positive electrode, and porous nitrogen/sulfur co-doped rGO aerogel （NS-3D rGO） as negative electrode has been prepared. The NPOH-0.5@rGO electrode combines the advantages of the NPOH hollow microspheres and the conductive rGO layers giving rise to a large specific capacitance, high cycling reversibility, and excellent rate performance. The NS-3D rGO electrode with abundant porosity and active sites promotes electrolyte infiltration and broadens the working voltage range. The ASC （NPOH-0.5@rGO//NS-3D rGO） shows a maximum voltage of up to 1.4 V, outstanding cycling ability （capacitance retention of 95.5% after 10,000 cycles）, and excellent rate capability （capacitance retention of 77% as the current density is increased ten times）. The ASC can light up an light-emitting diodes （LED） for more than 20 min after charging for 20 s. The fabrication technique and device architecture can be extended to other active oxide and carbon-based materials for next-generation high-performance electrochemical storage devices.
