Engineering NiCo₂S₄ nanoparticles anchored on carbon nanotubes as superior energy-storage materials for supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: Fabricating high-capacity electrode materials toward supercapacitors has attracted increasing attention. Here we report a three-dimensional CNTs/NiCo₂S₄ nanocomposite material synthesized successfully by a facile one-step hydrothermal technique. As expected, a CNTs/NiCo₂S₄ electrode shows remarkable capacitive properties with a high specific capacitance of 890 C g^-1 at 1 A g^-1. It also demonstrates excellent cycle stability with an 83.5% capacitance retention rate after 5000 cycles at 10 A g^-1. Importantly, when assembled into a asymmetric supercapacitor, it exhibits a high energy density (43.3 W h kg^-1) and power density (800 W kg^-1). The exceptional electrochemical capacity is attributed to
