Fabrication of nickel hydroxideelectrodes with open-ended hexagonal nanotube arrays for high capacitance supercapacitors

Abstract

A nickel hydroxide electrode with open-ended hexagonal nanotube arrays, prepared by hydrolysis of nickel chloride in the presence of hexagonal ZnO nanorods, shows a very high capacitance of 1328 F g−1 at a discharge current density of 1 A g−1 due to the significantly improved ion transport.
