Construction of three‐dimensional marigold flower‐shaped Ni3V2O8 for efficient solid‐state supercapacitor applications

Abstract

AbstractDevelopment of binary spinel‐type mixed metal oxide and fabrication various morphological heterostructure nanomaterials having two distinct metals paid a wide attention in emerging field. Here, we prepared three‐dimensional (3D) marigold flower‐like Ni3V2O8 structure via a simple and facile technique for electrochemical supercapacitor applications. 3D Ni3V2O8 with thick petals as cathode materials exhibits high specific capacitance of 263.12 F g−1 at a scan rate of 0.5 mA cm−2. The high energy density of 32.98 W h kg−1 at power density of 189.96 W kg−1 is obtained by the cathode formation of marigold flower‐shaped Ni3V2O8, indicating excellent ions accessibility and large charge storage ability of Ni3V2O8 structure. It is also observed that even after 5000 cycles charging‐discharging profile analysis, Ni3V2O8 cathode retains 32% of its initial capacitance along with 100% Coulombic efficiency. This higher capacitance retention strengthens its adoption as a potential candidate for supercapacitor application.
