Fabrication of 1D nickel sulfide nanocrystals with high capacitances and remarkable durability†
Abstract
Nickel sulfide (NiS) materials with a different 1D structure are successfully synthesized by strictly controlling the reaction time and temperature, using dodecanethiol as both solvent and sulfur source. The formation of the NiS nanomaterials results from a “dispersion–decomposition” mechanism. Remarkably, 1D NiS electrode materials show super specific capacitance and stability.
