摘要

Dielectric capacitors are widely used in fields such as high-frequency pulse systems and communication due to their high power density. However, their energy storage density remains relatively low. Incorporation of core–shell structural fillers into the polymer matrix is a promising option for the development of high energy density energy storage materials. In this work, we employed polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene copolymer (PVDF-HFP) as a matrix, incorporating a ZnO@ZnS core–shell heterojunction filler to enhance the surface properties. The ZnO@ZnS heterojunction interface effectively suppresses and restricts carrier migration, creating an internal electric field at the interface that counteracts the applied electric field, thus enhancing the breakdown strength (Eb). The prepared composites possess an excellent energy storage density of about 4.18 J/cm3 at a breakdown voltage of 349.1 kV/mm when the filling amount is 2 wt.%, which is a 210% improvement over pristine PVDF-HFP. This work proposes an innovative and scalable approach for advancing polymer-based dielectric capacitors, offering enhanced energy storage capabilities.
