▎ 摘  要

3D architectures based on graphene have triggered a great deal of interest in energy, sensing, and environmental applications. This work describes, a simple electrochemical approach for the direct deposition of a functionalized graphene framework by utilizing electrostatic interactions between graphene oxide (GO) and a cationic surfactant. The surfactant improves the adsorption of GO sheets on the electrode surface, allowing the integration of individual graphene sheets into 3D structures with large electrochemically active surface area. Without using binders or conductive additives, the current approach leads to supercapacitors with high specific capacitance (320 F g(-1)) and areal capacitance (approximate to 400 mF cm(-2) for two electrode cells with single-sided coatings), which compares favorably to commercial activated carbon supercapacitors. Moreover, the supercapacitors demonstrate low internal resistance (approximate to 1 ohm cm(-2)), excellent cycling stability (no loss observed after 10 000 cycles) while also maintaining superior rate capability. In another application, these frameworks were successfully implemented as an electrochemical sensor for the simultaneous determination of small biomolecules including ascorbic acid, dopamine and uric acid with high sensitivity, selectivity and reproducibility. This work provides a simple, yet effective, strategy for the fabrication of macroporous electrodes with superior chemical, structural, and electrical properties that are desirable for a broad range of applications.
