Abstract

Nickel oxides because of their excellent electrochemical performance have been considered attractive materials for electrochemical energy storage. However, their application as active material for redox supercapacitor electrodes has been limited by poor electrical conductivity. In order to improve this property, herein we synthesized a nanonet of NiZn-mixed oxide, by facile hydrothermal route, directly on the substrate. The Zn-modified oxide material showed good electrochemical performance, displaying specific capacitance of 770
