Porous carbon nanowrinkles (PCW) coated on carbon micropost (CMP) arrays were successfully fabricated via three-step process, which took advantages of the large difference in elastic moduli between PCW and the raw material of CMP. The effect of nanowrinkle integration on the electrochemical performances was investigated, showing an improved electrochemical performance. The electrode also shows excellent cycling stability, which retains 84% of its initial discharge capacitance after 1700 cycles with >90% Coulombic efficiency. This enhanced electrochemical performance is ascribed to the synergistic effect of enlarged surface area and porous structure of PCW. The obtained PCW/CMP compositing electrode with the advantages of low cost and easy scaling-up has great potential for on-chip supercapacitors.

As the low-cost, natural multi-component for elemental doping and environment-friendly characteristics, biomass-derived porous carbon for energy storage attracts intense attention. Herein, walnut shells-based porous carbon has been obtained through carbonization, hydrothermal and activation treatment. The corresponding porous carbon owns superior electrochemical performances with specific capacitance reaching up to 462[Formula: see text]F[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] at 1[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text], and shows excellent cycling stability (5000 cycles, [Formula: see text]94.2% of capacitance retention at 10[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text]). Moreover, the symmetry supercapacitor achieves high specific capacitance (197[Formula: see text]F[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] at 1[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text]), relevant electrochemical cycling stability (5000 cycles, 89.2% of capacitance retention at 5[Formula: see text]A[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text]) and high power/energy density (42.8[Formula: see text]W[Formula: see text]h[Formula: see text]kg[Formula: see text] at 1249[Formula: see text]W[Formula: see text]kg[Formula: see text]). Therefore, the facile synthesis approach and superb electrochemical performance ensure that the walnut shells-derived porous carbon is a promising electrode material candidate for supercapacitors.
