  • 摘要:Designing metal-cation defects with desired architectures is a big challenge for boosting electrochemical performances. Herein, we report ultrathin ZnNi layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets with rich Zn vacancies (V-Zn) uniformly anchored on CuO nanowire skeletons for high performance capacitive electrode via a zeolitic imidazolate frameworks-8 derived approach. The optimized V-Zn-defect electrode displays high area capacity of 3967 mF cm(-2) at a current density of 2.0 mA cm(-2). Moreover, an all solid-state hybrid supercapacitor constructed with the V-Zn-defect sample and activated carbon delivers a maximum energy density of 1.03 mWh cm(-3) at a power density of 9.3 mW cm(-3). Mechanism studies indicate that V-Zn regulates the electronic structure of ZnNi LDH nanosheets for electron conductivity and surface Faradaic reactions. The work may disclose the role of metal-cation defects in affecting the electrochemical activity at atomic level for developing high performance supercapacitors.
