In-Situ Synthesis Strategy of S-Doped Hierarchical Ni-MOF Nanosheet Supercapacitor Electrodes via Nickle Foam Etching

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with porous structures are beneficial for electrochemical energy storage. Herein, the in-situ growth of the S -doped Ni-MOF nanosheet (S-NMN) on the surfaces of nickel foams was prepared via a facile solvothermal process. Owing to the rich active sites, small transport barrier, and excellent mechanical stability, the fabricated S-NMN-2 electrode displays a high specific capacity (1952 mF cm(-2) at 1 mA cm(-2)), satisfactory rate performance, and remarkable cyclic stability. For practical application, the assembled S-NMN-2// AC device achieves a high energy density of 0.189 mWh cm(-2) at the power density of 1.600 mW cm(-2) with prominent cycling stability (93.27% capacity retention after 4000 cycles). The facile strategy of etching nickel foam demonstrates a new idea for developing high-performance supercapacitor materials.
