A one-step fabrication method for a three-dimensional binder-free graphene-nickel foam electrode was reported using APCVD, with optimized process parameters and structural properties resulting in high yield and quality of graphene. Electrochemical testing showed excellent performance of the electrode for energy storage applications.
Herein, a one-step fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) binder-free graphene-nickel foam (G-Ni) electrode via atmospheric pressure chemical vapour deposition (APCVD) is reported. Graphene thin films were deposited on nickel foam under isobaric conditions in an inert environment. The process parameters such as temperature, time, and the gas flow rate were statistically optimised using design of experiment (DOE) to maximise the yield of graphene. The structural and morphological properties of the fabricated graphene electrode were investigated through X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The electrochemical investigations were conducted through cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The results confirmed few-layered graphene with good surface morphology, high purity, and crystallinity of a binder-free electrode. The statistical analysis revealed that the optimal graphene electrode fabrication conditions were 900 degrees C, 10 min, and 100 sccm, respectively. Moreover, the regressed model and experimental results for the graphene growth were determined to be 3.93 mg/cm(2), and 4.01 mg/cm(2), respectively. Electrochemically, a specific capacitance value of 62.07 F/g was recorded at a scan rate of 3 mV/s showing an excellent performance of the fabricated 3D graphene electrode for energy storage applications.
