Description
Summary:Decoration of vanadium nitride nanoparticles on carbon nanotubes creates electrodes with three different energy storage mechanisms that operate synergistically to give a high specific capacitance with a low active mass. Calculation and measurements further indicate the power and energy density to be as high as 105–106 W/kg and 102 Wh/kg, respectively. Particle attachment also greatly improves the capacitive coefficient, including ionic transmittance, charge transfer, porosity, and conductivity. Corrosion tests based on the Tafel method reveal the corrosion potential and current of electrodes as low as −0.721 V and 7.53 × 10–4 A, respectively.
