▎ 摘  要

An essential route to improve the energy density of asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) is to develop unique, smart and highly-efficient positive and negative current collectors with hierarchical combination of various electroactive materials. Herein, we developed a multicomponent integration of hierarchical Co9S8-Ni3S2 nanoparticles anchored on CuMn2O4-NiMn2O4 nanosheet arrays (Co-Ni-S NPs/Cu-Ni-Mn-O NSAs) and rhombus-like shaped MnFe2O4-ZnFe2O4 nanocrystals are grown on the graphene-ink nanosheets (Mn-Zn-Fe-O/G-ink), which were effectively applied as a superior binder-free cathode and anode electrodes for ASCs. The hierarchical Co-Ni-S NPs/Cu-Ni-Mn-O NSAs and Mn-Zn-Fe-O/G-ink electrode architectures show large surface area, high conductivity and provide rich active sites for redox reactions. As a result, the electrochemical properties of Co-Ni-S NPs/Cu-Ni-Mn-O NSAs and Mn-Zn-Fe-O/G-ink electrodes deliver that both have excellent specific capacities (263 and 149.44 mA h g(-1) at 2 A g(-1)), superior rate capabilities (86.54% and 92.64% even at 20 A g(-1)) and remarkable cycling stabilities (97.39% and 94.83% over 5000 cycles), respectively. Furthermore, an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) assembled using the Co-Ni-S NPs/Cu-Ni-Mn-O NSAs as positive electrode and Mn-Zn-Fe-O/G-ink as negative electrode with an aqueous KOH electrolyte. The energy and power densities of the ASC are calculated based on the weight of the electroactive materials. As a result, the ASC delivers ultrahigh energy and power densities of 75.65 Wh kg(-1) and 6629.53 W kg(-1) as well as achieve exceptional cycling stability of 96.89% retention with 98.26% of columbic efficiency over 5000 cycles. These attractive results of binder-free advanced current collectors with composites of various active materials and favorable architectures paves a path for the engineering of new class collectors for high-performance ASCs.
