We report the electrochemical charge storage performance of NiSbO, obtained through a solid-state reaction method, and a detailed comparison with its reduced graphene oxide composite. Intriguingly, the composite, NiSbO-reduced graphene oxide, yielded a large capacitance of 952.38 F g, at a mass-normalized-current of 1 A g, which is at least 4-fold higher than that of the bare NiSbO.

Here, we have reported a halogen-free high-voltage electrolyte based on SiB (BO) . Because of the weak π-orbital interaction of -BO as well as the mixed covalent and ionic interaction between SiB -cage and -BO ligand, SiB (BO) has colossal stability.

Herein, we synthesized nanostructured AlO and AlO-reduced graphene oxide (AlO-rGO) hybrid through hydrothermal and post-hydrothermal calcination processes. The synthesized materials were subject to standard characterisation processes to verify their morphological and structural details.

To gain constructive insight into the possible effect of doping on the electrocatalytic activity of materials, a catalytic framework with a discrete distribution of dopants is an appropriate model system. Such a system assures well-defined active centers, maximum atom utilization efficiency, and hence enhanced selectivity, catalytic activity, and stability. Herein, a comprehensive investigation of the electrocatalytic activity of iron-doped cobalt oxide (Fe-CoO) nanosheets is presented.
