Herein, hybrid energy storages (HESs) of battery-type Ni(OH)(2) and supercapacitor-type electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO) were fabricated using potassium ferricyanide (K3Fe(CN)(6)) as a redox additive in KOH electrolyte for high specific energy and power applications. The as-fabricated HES of Ni(OH)(2)//ERGO in a single coin cell (CR2016) size in 4 mM K-3[Fe(CN)](6) in 1 M KOH provides a wide working voltage up to 1.6 V and exhibits a maximum specific energy of 85 W h kg(-1) at the specific power of 726 W kg(-1) with a high capacity retention over 88% after 10 000 cycles, while the HES in 1 M KOH provides a lower maximum specific energy of 61 W h kg(-1). A Fe(CN)(6)(3-)/Fe(CN)(6)(4-) redox couple has a great electrochemical reversibility in nature since Fe(CN)(6)(3-) can obtain electrons from Ni(OH) 2 through the reduction process and Fe(CN)(6)(4-) can donate electrons to NiOOH for the oxidation process. The HES reported herein may be practically used for high energy applications.
