Alternately Dipping Method to Prepare Graphene Fiber Electrodes for Ultra-high-Capacitance Fiber Supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: Flexible fiber supercapacitors are promising candidate for power supply of wearable electronics. Fabrication of high-performance fibers is in progress yet challenging. The currently available graphene fibers made from wet-spinning or electro-deposition technologies are far away from practical applications due to their unsatisfactory capacitance. Here we report a facile alternately dipping (AD) method to coat graphene on wire-like substrates. The excellent mechanical properties of the substrate with greatly diverse choices can be carried over to the fiber supercapacitors. Under such guideline, the graphene fiber with a titanium core made by our AD method (AD:Ti@RGO) shows an ultra-high specific capacitance of up to 1,722.1 mF cm^-2, which is ∼1,000 times that of wet-spinning- and
