Abstract

In this research work, we prepared NiO@SnO₂ (N1), NiO@ZnO (N2) and NiO@MnO₂ (N3) core-shell nanocomposites using sol-gel route. Prepared samples were investigated for their different properties employing various characterization techniques. The morphology and structure of the nanocomposites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform Infrared Spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis. Furthermore, the optical properties were analyzed using UV–Vis Spectroscopy, Photoluminescence Spectroscopy. In addition, the supercapacitive performances were examined by cyclic voltammogram (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge(GCD) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The electrochemical results indicate that all the prepared composites exhibits good electrochemical performance but N2 depicts superior results among all. The specific capacitance obtained for N2 is 720 F/g at 1 A g⁻¹ and excellent cycling stability (96.5 % retention after 6000 cycles at 1 A g⁻¹). Therefore, this wok offers meaningful reference for supercapacitor applications in the future.

基于氧化镍的核壳纳米复合材料与高性能超级电容器电极材料的比较研究

在这项研究工作中，我们采用溶胶-凝胶法制备了 NiO@SnO2（N1）、NiO@ZnO（N2）和 NiO@MnO2（N3）核壳纳米复合材料。利用各种表征技术对制备的样品进行了不同性质的研究。透射电子显微镜、X 射线光电子能谱、傅立叶变换红外光谱和 X 射线衍射分析对纳米复合材料的形貌和结构进行了表征。此外，还利用紫外可见光谱和光致发光光谱分析了纳米复合材料的光学特性。此外，还通过循环伏安图（CV）、电静态充放电（GCD）和电化学阻抗谱（EIS）对超级电容器性能进行了检测。电化学结果表明，所有制备的复合材料都表现出良好的电化学性能，但其中 N2 的电化学性能更优。在 1 A g-1 的条件下，N2 的比电容为 720 F/g，循环稳定性极佳（在 1 A g-1 条件下循环 6000 次后，电容保持率为 96.5%）。因此，这种炒锅为超级电容器的未来应用提供了有意义的参考。
