摘要

The development of high-performance and sustainable electrode materials is essential for next-generation supercapacitors. Here, we report a CeO2/N-doped carbon (CeO2/NC) hybrid synthesized by integrating hydrothermally prepared CeO2 nanoparticles with nitrogen-doped carbon derived from a Na-MOF precursor. Structural and morphological analyses confirm a mesoporous hybrid with strong CeO2–carbon interfacial coupling. Among the various weight-percentage CeO2/NC composites synthesized, CeO2/NC-20 exhibits the highest surface area (186.7 m2 g−1) and uniform nanoparticle dispersion. Electrochemically, the CeO2/NC-20 electrode delivers 1452 F g−1 at 1 A g−1 in a three-electrode system, superior rate performance, and dominant surface-controlled charge storage. The fabricated symmetric device achieves 215 F g−1, 29.8 Wh kg−1, and 92% retention over 5000 cycles, with low charge-transfer resistance and stable ion diffusion. The successful lighting of an LED demonstrates its practical potential. This work highlights the promise of Na-MOF-derived N-doped carbon/metal oxide hybrids for scalable, high-energy supercapacitor applications.
