▎ 摘　　要

Constructing novel electrode materials with supernal specific capacitance and cycle stability is important for the practical applications of supercapacitors. Herein, ultrathin and highly crumpled CoP/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheet arrays are grown on nickel foam (NF) through a hydrothermal-phosphidation route. Benefitting from the synergistic effects of CoP with large specific capacity and rGO with high conductivity and ultrathin nanosheet arrays structure, CoP/rGO shows extraordinary electrochemical performance. The CoP/rGO electrode possesses a superior specific capacity of 1438.0 C g (3595.0 F g)at 1 A g-1, which is 3.43, 2.05, and 2.26 times larger than those of Co(OH)/rGO, and bare CoP. In particular, the CoP/rGO nanosheet arrays show the highest specific capacities among the monometallic phosphide-based nanostructures reported so far. The CoP/rGO retains 1198.9 C g(-1) (2997.2 F g(-1)) at 10 A g , revealing the outstanding rate capability of 83%. Theoretical calculations reveal that rGO can adequately reduce the absorption energy of OH on CoP, which makes CoP/rGO have strong adsorption capacity of OH, resulting in boosting electrochemical performance. A hybrid supercapacitor of CoP/rGO/NF//AC was designed, which presents a superior energy density of 43.2 Wh kg(-1) at a power density of 1010.5 W kg(-1). After 10 000 cycles, the CoP/rGO/NF//AC supercapacitor reveals excellent cycling durability with a capacitance retention of 89%. This work provides a new insight into the design of high-performance electrode materials by combining high capacitive metal phosphides with conductive carbon, which is of great significance for energy storage systems.
