In situ fabrication of a porous CF@Cu2O@NiMn2O3 heterostructure as an integrated electrode for photo-supercapacitors†
Abstract
This work reports the development of a photoelectrode composed of a copper-foam-supported Cu2O@NiMn2O3 (CF@Cu2O@NiMn2O3) heterostructure with a porous texture that can enhance supercapacitor performance through effective photo-responsive behaviour. Across a range of current densities, the photo-induced capacitance increased from 8.22% to 19.8%, delivering a maximum areal capacitance of 3032.5 mF cm−2. The device exhibited exceptional stability in cycle testing, with a capacitance retention of 111.1% and coulombic efficiency retention of 100%.
