High Performance Supercapacitor Electrodes from Electrospun Nickel Oxide Nanowires

Electrochemical energy storage using pseudocapacitive mode is under intense research owing to their potential in fabricating high performance renewable energy devices at a lower cost. In this paper we characterize nickel oxide (NiO) nanowires developed by electrospinning an aqueous polymeric solutio...
