Facile Synthesis of Three-dimensional Metal Oxide/Carbon co-Aerogel Nanostructures and Their Application for Energy Storage
- Abstract:
In the field of energy storage, it is important to find new materials and understand the fundamental principles of electrode/electrolyte interface. We prepared the metal oxide/carbon co-aerogel material via the sol-gel method. This new material was composed of 3-D interconnected network of TiO2 and carbon aerogel. TEM, SEM, XRD, BET SA, and electrochemistry measurements were discussed. With an operating voltage between 0.05 and 3.00 V, the discharge capacity was ~400 mAh/g at 168 mA/g current density. Based on this facile general route, we further proposed 3-D macroporous/mesoporous metal oxide/carbon nanostructured materials. These materials could be promising candidates in the fields of electrochemical, thermoelectric, and photocatalytic devices.
