▎ 摘  要

Supercapacitors based on pi-conjugated conducting polymers have attracted attention due to their high pseudo-capacitance characteristics. However, the narrow window of their potential (<1 V) gives rise to low energy density, and this restricts their practical application. In the present study a novel hierarchical nanocomposite, graphene nanosheets/acid-treated multi-walled carbon nanotube-supported poly(1,5-diaminoanthraquinone) (GNS/aMWCNT@PDAA), has been successfully synthesized using cerium sulphate (Ce(SO4)(2)) as oxidant and camphor sulphonic acid as dopant. The nanocomposite exhibits a unique nanoporous morphology, a high pi-conjugated degree and an excellent conductive interpenetrating network. With these intriguing features, in addition to its unique p- and n-doping characteristics, the supercapacitor in a 1 M tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate - acetonitrile (Et4NBF4-AN) electrolyte can be reversibly cycled within a potential window of 2.8 V. The supercapacitor achieves a high energy density of 86.4 W h kg(-1) at a power density of 0.73 kW kg(-1), and still retains energy density of 55.5 W h kg(-1) at a power density of 153.9 kW kg(-1). In addition, superior cycling stability is achieved, with only 7% capacitance loss after 10 000 cycles. This excellent performance surpasses that of other recently reported supercapacitors and represents a significant breakthrough in p- conjugated polymer-based supercapacitors.
