Vertically-oriented graphene nanosheet as nano-bridge for pseudocapacitive electrode with ultrahigh electrochemical stability.

ABSTRACT: A hierarchical structure consisting of Ni-Co hydroxide nanosheets (NCHN) electrodeposited on vertically-oriented graphene nanosheets (GN) on carbon cloth (CC) was fabricated for high-performance pseudocapacitive electrodes. NCHN was uniformly distributed on GN, forming a sheet-on-sheet hierarchical structure. Such NCHN/GN/CC hybrid electrodes exhibit high capacitance and ultrahigh electrochemical-stability that structure and electrochemical properties of hybrid electrodes are not affected by the cyclic low-rate scanning (at 5 mV s^-1 even over 1000 cycles). GN vertically grown on CC is used as nano-bridge between NCHN active materials and CC current collector, which effectively facilitates ion/charge transfer between the electrolyte and electrode, consequently leading to the ultr
