Abstract

Design and control over the growth of novel nanomaterial for flexible electrode are significant and practical for the study of portable energy storage devices. Herein, the flexible all-solid-state charge-storage devices assembled by the hierarchical CoMn2O4 nanoneedle array on the Ni foam electrode have been designed and manufactured. The CoMn2O4 electrode is prepared via a hydrothermal process and subsequent annealing treatment. The CoMn2O4 electrode has a high-power battery-type behavior with a capacity of 223 mAh g−1 at a discharge current density of 1 A g−1 in a three-electrode system. When applied in the flexible all-solid-state charge-storage device, it displays a satisfactory capacity of 46 mAh g−1 at a discharge current density of 1 A g−1, an energy density of 23.29 Wh kg−1 at a power density of 0.5 kW kg−1 and a power density of 4 kW kg−1 at an energy density of 12 Wh kg−1. About 80.3% of the initial capacity is achieved after 5000 charge/discharge cycles at a current density of 4 A g−1, which shows the excellent cycling stability of the device. This work demonstrates the potential application of the CoMn2O4 nanoneedle array electrode for high-performance flexible charge-storage devices.
