Defect-engineered rGO−CoNi2S4 with enhanced electrochemical performance for asymmetric supercapacitor

To explore the effect of sulfur vacancies in transition metal sulfide on the electrochemical properties of anode materials, the graphene oxide (GO) and CoNi 2 S 4 were used as the raw materials to synthesize the rGO 10 −CoNi 2 S 4− x composite electrode materials by the solvothermal method. The obtained rGO 10 −CoNi 2 S 4− x electrode materials with sulfur vacancies consist of nanoflakes and nanorods. The galvanostatic charge−discharge test of the rGO 10 −CoNi 2 S 4− x electrode materials shows a great specific capacitance of 3050.1 F/g at a current density of 1 A/g. Moreover, the electrode materials still remain rate capability retention of 86.1% when the current density increases from 1 to at 10 A/g. The rGO…
