Study of solvent variation on controlled synthesis of different nanostructured NiCoO thin films for supercapacitive application.

The present investigation deals with controlled synthesis of nanostructured NiCoO thin films directly on stainless steel substrates by facile and economical chemical bath deposition technique, without adding a surfactant or a binder. The consequences of different compositions of solvents on morphological and electrochemical properties have been studied systematically. We used different solvent composition as Double Distilled Water (DDW), DDW:Ethanol (1:1) and DDW: N, N dimethylformamide (1:1).
