Abstract

In this study, we present a simple approach involving a template-free single-step solvothermal process for the fabrication of nickel sulfide (NS) thin films on nickel foam substrates. The developed method offers a facile and efficient means of depositing NS nanostructures without the need for complex templates or multi-step procedures. The resulting NS-based electrodes exhibited remarkable electrochemical properties, making them highly promising for supercapacitor applications. Specifically, the NS electrodes demonstrated a significantly high specific capacitance of 810 Fg−1 when tested at a scan rate of 1 mVs−1. Furthermore, the NS electrodes exhibited excellent cyclic stability, with a retention rate of 94.2% after 6000 charge–discharge cycles. This remarkable durability is crucial for the long-term performance and reliability of supercapacitors because it ensures consistent and efficient energy storage over an extended operational lifespan. Considering the outstanding electrochemical performance and cyclic stability of NS nanostructures, it is highly likely that these materials will be used extensively in the development of next-generation supercapacitors. The utilization of NS-based electrodes can lead to the production of high-performance supercapacitors with superior energy storage capabilities and a prolonged cycling life.
