Facile synthesis of NiO@Ni(OH)-α-MoO nanocomposite for enhanced solid-state symmetric supercapacitor application.

Electrochemical supercapacitor fabrication using heterogeneous nanocomposite is one of the most promising pathways for energy storage technology. Herein, heterostructure based nickel-molybdenum (NiO@Ni(OH)-α-MoO) nanocomposites have been successfully prepared on nickel foil via hydrothermal route for supercapacitor application. The mixed phases of cubic, hexagonal, and orthorhombic crystal structure for NiO, Ni(OH), and α-MoO, respectively were observed by X-ray diffraction.

High Electrochemical Performance and Enhanced Electrocatalytic Behavior of a Hydrothermally Synthesized Highly Crystalline Heterostructure CeO@NiO Nanocomposite.

A CeO-based heterostructure nanocomposite has been attractive as an electrode material for energy storage and as an electrochemical sensor. In the present work, a CeO@NiO nanocomposite was prepared by a simple hydrothermal method. The structural and morphological information on the heterostructure CeO@NiO nanocomposite were obtained by using different characterization methods like X-ray diffraction, UV-visible, Fourier transform infrared, electron paramagnetic resonance, Raman, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray elemental color mapping, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis.
