Nickel Cobalt Sulfide core/shell structure on 3D Graphene for supercapacitor application

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) core/shell structure of nickel cobalt sulfide is nano-engineered by using series of hydrothermal steps on a CVD grown graphene for supercapacitor application. This core/shell is composited of NiCo2S4 nanotube (NCS) as core and CoxNi(3−x)S2 (CNS) nanosheets as a shell....
