摘要

Supercapacitors show excellent potential as promising devices for storing energy. In this paper, a facile, economical, and scalable hydrothermal strategy was used to prepare iron-vanadium oxide nanoparticles encapsulated by graphene nanosheets (FeVO4/G), which were used as a supercapacitor anode material. After systematically investigating and optimizing the reaction conditions, TEM images showed that the 8–12 nm iron-vanadium oxide nanoparticles were encapsulated by the graphene nanosheets. These interconnected graphene nanosheets significantly enhanced electrochemical activity by shortening the electrolyte-to-electrode pathway for the diffusion of ions. At 1 A g−1, FeVO4/G realized a good specific capacitance of 647 F g−1 while maintaining 80.5% capacitance retention during extended operation (10,000 cycles), highlighting its outstanding stability. Electrochemical impedance measurements indicated favorable kinetic properties, with FeVO4/G exhibiting low solution (0.47 Ω) and charge transfer (1.28 Ω) resistances. This suggests effective electron transfer and ionic diffusion processes. The asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) was assembled using the FeVO4/G composite as the anode and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as the cathode. Remarkably, the resulting FeVO4/G//rGO asymmetric supercapacitor achieved an energy density of 12.8 W h kg−1 at a power density of 0.4 kW kg−1. The superior performance of FeVO4/G as an electrode demonstrates its strong potential for real-world energy storage solutions.
