N/O Co-doped Porous Carbons Derived from Coal Tar Pitch for Ultra-high Specific Capacitance Supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: In this paper, a series of N/O co-doped porous carbons (PCs) were designed and used to prepare coal tar pitch-based supercapacitors (SCs). The introduction of N/O species under the intervention of urea effectively improves the pseudocapacitance of PCs. The results show that the specific surface area of synthesized N₃PC_4-700 is 1914 m² g^-1, while the N and O contents are 1.3 and 7.2%, respectively. The unique interconnected pore structure and proper organic N/O co-doping, especially the introduction of pyridine-N and pyrrole-N, are beneficial for improving the electrochemical performance of PCs. In the three-electrode system, the specific capacitance and rate capability of N₃PC_4-700 are 532.5 F g^-1 and 72.5% at the
