Samarium-doped NiMoO4-CoMoO4 composites with oxygen vacancies for high-performance supercapacitors
摘要
In this study, a Sm-NiMoO4/CoMoO4 composite was synthesized on nickel foam using co-precipitation followed by calcination. The introduction of samarium (Sm)-induced oxygen vacancies and increased the specific surface area to 129.8 m2/g, higher than that of NiMoO4 (96.36 m2/g) and CoMoO4 (99.72 m2/g). The composite showed a high specific capacitance of 1982 F g−1 at 1 A g−1 and excellent cycling stability, retaining 98.3% after 10,000 cycles. Additionally, a solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor was assembled using Sm-NiMoO4/CoMoO4 as the positive electrode and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as the negative electrode. The device operated within 0–1.6 V and delivered a maximum energy density of 44.8 Wh kg−1 and a power density of 9900 W kg−1, showing outstanding energy storage performance.
