摘要

In this study, reduced graphene oxide/cobalt oxide@nickel (rGO/Co₃O₄@Ni) nanocomposites were synthesized via a low-temperature hydrothermal route followed by annealing at 600 °C. Structural, spectroscopic, and morphological characterizations verified the successful integration of Co₃O₄ nanoparticles with rGO on a 3D Ni foam scaffold. Raman analysis confirmed Co–O vibrational modes and graphitic carbon signatures with improved graphitization after annealing, while XPS identified mixed Co²⁺/Co³⁺ oxidation states. SEM revealed a porous nano-architectured surface favorable for electrolyte access. Nitrogen adsorption–desorption analysis indicated a mesoporous structure, demonstrating adequate accessible surface area and pore distribution to support efficient ion transport. Electrochemical testing in 1 M KOH showed that the synergistic rGO/Co₃O₄@Ni architecture delivered a high specific capacitance of 1056 F/g at 1 A/g, along with excellent cycling stability, retaining 92.16% capacitance after 4000 charge–discharge cycles. EIS measurements further confirmed reduced resistance and enhanced ion/electron transport. These results demonstrate the potential of rGO/Co₃O₄@Ni as a highly efficient and durable electrode material for next-generation supercapacitors.
