Abstract
Photo-assisted supercapacitor systems offer a compelling approach to effectively harnessing both solar and electrical energy. In this study, the core–shell heterostructure NiCo2S4@Ni3V2O8 (NCS@NVO) was successfully synthesized for the development of photosensitive supercapacitor electrodes. NCS@NVO demonstrated a pronounced photoelectron memory effect under illumination, attributed to the solar-driven contributions of both NCS and NVO, as photon absorption facilitated electron-hole pair separation and transport. Compared to the specific capacitance in the dark (2292F g−1 at 1 A g−1), the capacitance of the NCS@NVO composite electrode increased dramatically to 3025F g−1 when exposed to light. Moreover, the capacitance retention rate remained remarkably high at 99.83 % after 10,000 cycles at 20 A g−1. In addition, the NCS@NVO hybrid supercapacitor achieved an outstanding energy density of 63.56 W h kg−1 under illumination, alongside a power density of 789.84 W kg−1. This study thoroughly investigated the solar-induced photoelectron memory effect in the NCS@NVO composite electrode for asymmetric supercapacitors, paving the way for the design of high-performance photosensitive nano-electrodes in advanced electrochemical energy storage applications.
