Abstract
In energy reservoirs, hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs) have gained incredible recognition owing to their exceptional specific energy (Es), Specific power (Ps), and high cyclic stability. However, electroactive electrode materials with flashing electrochemical features and high storage ability are still required. In this regard, nickel-cobalt binary sulfide composites need further exploration as an electrode material owing to their high electrochemical properties, better conductivity, excellent redox reversibility, and high-rate capability. Here, we account the electrochemical activities and synthesis of composites including (nickel and cobalt sulfides). The composites were analyzed for structural and morphological analysis using XRD and SEM techniques, respectively. Amidst all other compositions, Ni0.75Co0.25S exhibited the optimum electrochemical performance measured in half-cell assembly with specific capacity (Qs) of 1147.6 Cg−1 and 900 Cg−1 at lowest scan rate and current density respectively. This electroactive electrode material together with activated carbon (AC) was further utilized in two cell assembly. This Hybrid device revealed ES of 50.21 Whkg−1 and Ps of 9350 Wkg−1 with capacity retention of 80.30% after consecutive charge discharge. The performance analysis of the actual device was further examined using a simulation approach, focusing on both capacitive and diffusive contributions by comparing the results of both linear and quadratic models. These attractive results revealed by Ni0.75Co0.25S signify it as favorable electrode material for hybrid supercapacitor applications.
