PAN@AuPd@MnO_2 Core-Shell Nanopillars for High-Performance Electrochemical Energy Storage

摘要

A quick and easy method to print highly ordered nanopillar structures has been developed without the need of costly equipment or sacrificial templates. The resulting polymer architecture is used as a scaffold to deposit manganese dioxide as a pseudocapacitive active material. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge/discharge (GCD) measurements were used to characterize electrode performance. This facile fabrication process along with superior power and energy density make this electrode design very appealing for future energy storage systems.
