Abstract
A supercapattery is a device that combines the properties of batteries and supercapacitors, such as power density and energy density. A binary composite (zinc cobalt sulfide) and rGO are synthesized using a simple hydrothermal method and modified Hummers' method. A notable specific capacity (Cs) of 1254 C g-1 is obtained in the ZnCoS@rGO case, which is higher than individual Cs of ZnS (975 C g-1) and CoS (400 C g-1). For the asymmetric (ASC) device (ZnCoS@rGO//PANI@AC), the PANI-doped activated carbon and ZnCoS@rGO are used as the cathode and anode respectively. A high Cm of 141 C g-1 is achieved at 1.4 A g-1. The ASC is exhibited an extraordinary energy density of 45 W h kg-1 with a power density 5000 W kg-1 at 1.4 A g-1. To check the stability of the device, the ASC device is measured for 2000 charging/discharging cycles. The device showed improved coulombic efficiency of 94%. These findings confirmed that the two-dimensional materials provide the opportunities to design battery and supercapacitor hybrid devices.
