A metal-doping strategy is employed to produce cobalt-doped tungsten suboxide (Co-doped W18O49) with improved ion storage performance for supercapacitor electrodes. The distortion of the W18O49 structure caused by Co doping leads to a larger amorphous area, resulting in more oxygen vacancies and enhanced ion diffusion. The Co-doped W18O49/CC electrode exhibits a specific capacity of 475 C g-1 (792 F g-1) and the assembled supercapacitor device achieves a high energy density of 35.0 Wh kg-1.
A crucial hurdle in developing supercapacitors is the creation of metal oxides with nanoscale structures that possess improved chemically active surfaces, ion/charge transport kinetics, and minimized ion-diffusion path-ways. A metal-doping strategy to produce oxygen vacancies and increase electrical conductivity has proven effective for designing high-performance materials for energy storage devices. Herein, cobalt-doped tungsten suboxide (Co-doped W18O49) is grown on carbon cloth (CC) using a solvothermal approach and used as an electrode material for supercapacitor applications for the first time. Through this strategy, structurally distorted W18O49 is obtained by detecting a more apparent amorphous area caused by forming more oxygen vacancies with the bending of the lattice fringes. Benefiting from the synergy of more oxygen vacancies, increased lattice spacing, a high specific surface area, and accelerated ion diffusion, the Co-doped W18O49/CC electrode achieves a specific capacity of 475 C g-1 (792 F g-1) at a current density of 1.0 A g-1, which is superior to that of the undoped W18O49/CC (259 C g-1, 432 F g-1) and among the highest reported to date. Interestingly, the asym-metric supercapacitor device assembled using Co-doped W18O49/CC//AC/CC can provide a high energy density of 35.0 Wh kg-1. This strategy proves that the distortion of the W18O49 structure by Co doping improves the ion storage performance and self-discharge behavior. Also, it can enhance the energy storage performance of other electrode materials.
