Square-Facet Nanobar MOF-Derived Co₃O₄@Co/N-doped CNT Core-Shell-based Nanocomposites as Cathode Materials for High-Performance Supercapacitor Studies.

ABSTRACT: The binary as well as ternary nanocomposites of the square-facet nanobar Co-MOF-derived Co₃O₄@Co/N-CNTs (N-CNTs: nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes) with Ag NPs and rGO have been synthesized via an easy wet chemical route, and their supercapacitor behavior was then studied. At a controlled pH of the precursor solution, square-facet nanobars of Co-MOF were first synthesized by the solvothermal method and then pyrolyzed under a controlled nitrogen atmosphere to get a core-shell system of Co₃O₄@Co/N-CNTs. In the second step, different compositions of Co₃O₄@Co/N-CNT core-shell structures were formed by an ex-situ method with Ag NPs and rGO moieties. Among several bare, binary, and ternary compositions tested in 6 M aqueous K
