摘要

The development of high-performance, sustainable, and economical electrodes with superior capacity and cyclic stability is crucial for the advancement of energy storage devices in practical applications. Bimetallic oxide has garnered considerable interest as a potential electrode materials for energy storage applications, owing to its high capacity, natural abundance, cost-effectiveness, and eco-friendliness. Despite these advantages, bimetallic oxides are challenged by its low electronic conductivity and substantial volume expansion during the charge-discharge cycle, which detract from its performance. In this work, we synthesized a bimetallic copper-cobalt oxide reduce graphene oxide (Cu-Co3O4/rGO) nanocomposite electrode material to address these issues, optimizing the nanocomposite to enhance energy storage performance. The structure and surface morphology of the synthesized bimetallic Cu-Co3O4/rGO nanocomposite is characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), RAMAN spectroscopy, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET). The thermal stability of the naocomposite sample was also studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The Cu-Co3O4/rGO nanocomposites exhibit enhanced electrochemical kinetics and electrical conductivity compared to pristine Co3O4 and Cu-Co3O4. Electrochemical analyses reveal a specific capacitance of 921.93 F g−1, an energy density of 419.36 Wh kg−1, and a power density of 4912.66 W kg−1 at a current density of 0.5 A g−1. The Cu-Co3O4/rGO nanocomposite exhibits an impressive capacity retention of 89%, and Coulombic efficiency of 83%. It demonstrates exceptional cycling stability over 2800 cycles and superior rate performance compared to pristine Co3O4 and Cu-Co3O4. The obtained data indicated that the nanocomposite materials exhibit superior performance in energy storage devices.
