Hierarchical Ag@Ni(OH)2 nanospheres were achieved directly on copper foam substrate through a convenient two-step process. Ag nanoflowers were formed on copper substrate by galvanic replacement technology between AgNO3 and copper foam followed by electrodeposition of a layer of Ni(OH)2. Ag nanostructures as cores not only dominated the final morphology of the composites, but also improved the electrical conductivity, increased the specific surface area of the active electrode material, and even directly participated in the electrochemical reactions. The resulted Ag@Ni(OH)2 nanospheres could be directly used as high-performance binder-free electrodes and exhibited enhanced electrochemical performance with a high specific capacitance of 1.864 F cm−2 and long cycling lifespans of 90.43% capacity retaining after 3000 cycles.

Abstract Bare PbS QDs and PbS-GQDs nanocomposite were prepared by chemical methods for supercapattery application and characterized by suitable analytical techniques confirming the formation of PbS-GQDs nanocomposite. The electrochemical performance of the fabricated electrodes showed that the PbS-GQDs nanocomposite exhibited high specific capacity, energy and power densities of 577.94 C g-1 , 166.45 Wh kg-1 and 576.01 W kg-1 respectively at 2 A g-1 compared to that of bare PbS QDs. The enhanced electrochemical performance of PbS-GQDs can be associated with the conductive platform provided by synergistic effect of GQDs. The nonlinearity in charge and discharge curves confirms the supercapattery behaviour of the nanocomposite. Also, PbS-G QDs nanocomposite electrode showed highly cyclic stability compared to bare PbS QDs after 5000 cycles. The results emphasize the potential of PbS-G QDs nanocomposite as a stable active electrode material for energy storage application.
