A sucrose derived carbon quantum dots/polyaniline (S-CQD/PANI) nanocomposite was synthesized as electrode materials by electrodeposition method to achieve excellent electrocapacitive performance for supercapacitor application. The morphology reveals that CQD were distributed uniformly
over the surface of PANI. The highest specific capacitance obtained to be 1512.4 Fg−1 at current density 1 Ag−1 for S-CQD/PANI-25 composite in three electrode system with 1 M H2SO4 aqueous electrolyte within the potential range of −0.2
to 0.8 V. In addition asymmetric supercapacitor device was fabricated reveals highest specific capacitance of 295 Fg−1 at 1 Ag−1 with excellent stability over 1000 cycle at 3 Ag−1. Remarkably, the device delivers energy density of 40.86 Whkg−1
at power density 2000 Wkg−1.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
