摘要：

Cobalt hydroxide nanowires were synthesized on Ni foam by a one-pot hydrothermal process. The specific capacitance of pure cobalt hydroxide nanowires can reach, similar to 1600 F g(-1) at a current density of 1 A g(-1). By suitably doping the redox-active element Mn into cobalt hydroxide nanowires, the specific capacitance is improved to similar to 2800 F g(-1) at 1 A g(-1). Doping with the redox-inactive elements La and Sr gives specific capacitances per cobalt mass of similar to 245, similar to 2200 and similar to 3200 F g(-1) at 1 A g(-1) for La-doped, Sr-doped and La-Sr-doped cobalt hydroxides, respectively. The effect of doping is clarified in terms of the modifications caused to the morphology, oxidation state of cobalt, electronic conductivity and additional redox reactions of cobalt hydroxide. Our work shows that chemical doping is an effective and simple route to improve the supercapacitor performance of transition metal hydroxides. (C) 2014 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
