Morphology Engineering of Hybrid Supercapacitor Electrodes from Hierarchical Stem-like Carbon Networks with Flower-like MoS₂ Structures.

ABSTRACT: There is a critical need to develop high-performance supercapacitors that can complement and even rival batteries for energy storage. This work introduces a strategy to drastically enhance the energy storage performance of a supercapacitor by engineering electrode morphologies with ternary composites offering distinct benefits for the energy storage application. The electrodes were fabricated with conductive networks of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) coated with a zeolitic imidazole framework (ZIF) for high ion diffusivity and ion-accumulating molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) with various morphologies. These include flower-like (fMoS₂), stacked-plate (pMoS₂), and exfoliated-flake (eMoS₂) structures from topochemical synthesis. CNT-ZIF-fMoS₂ demons
