Abstract

A highly flexible Mn3O4/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanohybrid paper with high electrical conductivity and high mass loading of Mn3O4 nanofibers (0.71 g cm−3) is developed via a facile gel formation and electrochemical reduction process, which is low‐cost, environmental friendly, and easy to scale up. Confined Mn3O4 nanofibers are well dispersed within the rGO sheets, which demonstrate to be a promising cathode material for flexible asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs). When coupled with an electrochemically reduced rGO paper as the anode, a flexible ASC device, based on the Mn3O4/rGO nanohybrid paper as the cathode, is assembled; and it demonstrates remarkable electrochemical performance: a high volumetric capacitance of 54.6 F cm−3 (546.05 mF cm−2), and remarkable volumetric energy and power density (0.0055 Wh cm−3 and 10.95 W cm−3) being achieved with excellent cycling ability. The nanohybrid paper shows great improvement for flexible energy devices in terms of electrochemical properties.
