更新时间:2016-07-05

With the rapid development of wearable and portable electronics,microscale energy storage devices with multiple compatible features of lightweight,tailored size,outstanding flexibility,and high energy density have gained tremendous attentions.Recently,micro-supercapacitors(MSCs)are considered as a very promising class of on-chip energy storage devices for integrated electronics due to ultrahigh power delivery,excellent rate capability,robust mechanical flexibility,unique shape diversity and safety[1-3].Despite remarkable advancements in the fabrication of nanostructured electrode materials and the manufacturing of novel devices,there are still huge challenges in the development of MSCs with high areal capacitance,which is a crucial performance metrics of MSCs[4,5].To boost the areal capacitance,the key is to develop high-performance thick electrode materials with developed ionic and electronic conducting network,which how ever is still underdeveloped in this important research field.

Two-dimensional(2D)materials,characterized by nanoscale dimension in thickness and in finite length in the plane,are currently regarded as groundbreaking electrode candidates for MSCs because they present unique properties of large surface area,ultra-thinness,high mechanical flexibility,and unprecedented capacitance characteristics,and also demonstrate potential applications in electronics,transparent conducting electrode,composites,energy storage and conversion[6-10].Conceptually,2D materials mainly include graphene and graphene-like analogues(such as,transition metal oxides/hydroxides,metal sulfides,boron nitride,MXenes,phosphorene,thiophene)[11-13].Among them,Mn O2 nanosheets have received extensive concerns for high-performance supercapacitors because of high surface area,inexpensive massive scalability,high theoretical capacity(1370 F/g),environmentally friendly merit,and natural abundance[14,15].How ever,Mn O2 intrinsically suffers from low electrical conductivity,resulting in poor rate capability and power density[16,17].To overcome this issue,MnO2 hybrids with highly conductive materials,e.g.,graphene,carbon nanotube,were usually proposed as electrodes for supercapacitors[18-22].From these view points,one promising method for fabricating MSCs is to manufacture compact film electrodes constructed by 2D pseudocapacitive Mn O2 nanosheets and capacitive conducting graphene,which may dramatically enhance the electrochemical performance of MSCs.Moreover,the conventional device manufacturing of planar MSCs by photolithographic techniques normally involved complicated processing(e.g.,spin-coating photoresist,baking,masked irradiation,development),O2 plasma etching,and sputtering metal-based current collectors(e.g.,Au),which significantly hindered large-scale and low-cost production of MSCs [23,24].Nevertheless,simplified construction of interdigital planar electrodes from ultrathin Mn O2 nanosheets and graphene for flexible MSCs has not yet been reported.

Herein,we demonstrate the simplified fabrication of all-solidstate planar MSCs(denoted as MG-MSCs)with high areal capacitance,based on interdigital patterned films(MG)of 2D pseudocapacitive Mn O2 nanosheets and electrochemically exfoliated graphene(EG),using polyvinyl alcohol/LiCl(PVA/LiCl)gel as electrolyte.The MG films with interdigital patterns were directly fabricated through a step-by-step filtration of high-conducting EG nanosheets acting as current collectors firstly,follow ed by depositing a hybrid film of 2D Mn O2 nanosheets and EG as electrodes with the assistance of a customized mask on Nylon membrane.The resulting MG hybrid film show ed excellent uniformity, flexibility,and electrical conductivity(84 S/cm),which can be directly served as binder-and additive-free flexible electrodes for MSCs.Remarkably,the fabricated MG-MSCs exhibited high areal capacitance of~355 m F/cm 2,outstanding mechanical flexibility with~92%of initial capacitance even at a highly bending angle of 180°,and pronounced cycling stability of 95%after 3000 cycles.In addition,MG-MSCs could efficiently realize designable integrated power source pack through parallel and serial interconnection,delivering high output current and voltage.Therefore,this simplified fabrication strategy using graphene and analogous nanosheets as electrodes and current collectors may open up numerous opportunities for developing high-performance MSCs.

The fabrication process of MG-MSCs is schematically depicted in Fig.1.Brie fly,three key steps were included as follows.First,EG interdigital patterns was manufactured as current collectors by filtration of EG dispersion,with assistance of the customized mask.Second,the MG hybrid interdigital patterns as electrodes were directly prepared by deposition of 2D Mn O2 and EG dispersion on a nylon membrane.Third,MG-MSCs based on MG films with tailored thickness were achieved after drop-casting and solidification of PVA/LiCl electrolyte.

To assemble high areal capacitance MG-MSCs,2D pseudocapacitive Mn O2 nanosheets and capacitive EG nanosheets with outstanding electrical conductivity were chosen.Specifically,the Mn O2 nanosheets were synthesized by chemical oxidation of Mn2+ions with tetramethylammonium hydroxide(TMA·OH)[25,26].The crystal structure of the as-prepared Mn O2 nanosheets was con firmed by XRD pattern,in which all the diffraction peaks located at 9.2°,18.5°,27.8°,36.3°and 65.1°were well attributed to the(001),(002),(003),(100)and(110)crystal faces of Mn O2,respectively(Fig.2a)[25,27].SEM and TEM images(Figs.2b-f)presented that the Mn O2 nanosheets were ultrathin, flat,and transparent graphene-like structure.As shown in Fig.2f,HRTEM image confirmed the well-crystalline phase with lattice distance of~0.24 nm,which was assigned to the(100)plane.The EG nanosheets prepared by electrochemical exfoliation of graphite possessed flat and uniform morphology,large lateral size(~10μm),ultrathin layer(≤5 layers)and high solution process ability(Fig.S1 in Supporting information),which were benefit for the formation of large-area and conductive films.

MG-MSCs were readily fabricated by mask-assisted filtration of high-conducting EG nanosheets firstly,follow ed by depositing a hybrid film of 2D Mn O2 nanosheets and EG as electrodes on Nylon membrane(Figs.3a and b),using PVA/LiCl gel as electrolyte.Notably,the resulting interdigital patterned MG hybrid films show ed excellent uniformity,and good mechanical flexibility(Figs.3a and b),and can be directly served as binder-and additivefree electrodes for MG-MSCs,in which the first-deposited EG layer can act as current collectors,instead of metal-based current collectors.Further,top-view SEM images of MG films revealed good structural integrity of EG and Mn O2 nanosheets,large-area continuity and uniformity with flat surface,which demonstrated that this technique was highly favorable for the construction of flexible MG-MSCs(Fig.3c).Cross-section SEM images of MG film clearly exhibited layer-stacked structure of graphene and Mn O2 nanosheets,with micrometer thickness of~19μm,and a high electric conductivity of~84 S/cm(Fig.3d).This result indicated that the fabricated MG interdigital patterns could act as electrochemically active electrodes for MSCs.

To meet the requirements for the integrated circuits,w e further fabricated two MG-MSCs through serial or parallel connections to improve output voltage or capacitance.Fig.4h show ed tw o integrated MG-MSCs-2 in series or parallel,presenting increased output voltage from 1.0 V to 2.0 V or twofold capacitance.Similarly,the GCD curves obtained at a current density of 0.4 m A/cm 2 of two serial or parallel devices also validated sufficiently high applied voltage of 2.0 V or double current output(Fig.4i).This result suggests that our MG-MSCs can be possibly coupled with the desirable integrated circuit to satisfy variable voltage and current outputs.

In summary,w e have demonstrated the fabrication of all-solidstate planar MG-MSCs based on interdigital patterned films of 2D pseudocapacitive Mn O2 nanosheets and capacitive EG using a universal simplified mask-assisted filtration technology.The asproduced MG-MSCs demonstrated impressive electrochemical performance,e.g.,high areal capacitance of 355 m F/cm 2,excellent mechanical flexibility as high as~92%of initial capacitance even at a highly bending angle of 180°,outstanding cycling stability of 95%after 3000 cycles,and serial or parallelinterconnection for tailored voltage and capacitance.As a consequence,the rational fabrication of MSCs based on graphene and other 2D nanosheets with simplified electrode manufacturing technology will pave the ways for constructing next-generation high-performance, flexible,portable and wearable energy storage devices.

The electrochemical behaviors of all-solid-state MG-MSCs-1,MG-MSCs-2 and MG-MSCs-3 based on MG films with varying mass loading were firstly evaluated by CV at different scan rate of 1-100 m V/s,GCD at a current density of 0.2 m A/cm,and EIS measurements.For comparison,we also fabricated EG-MSCs based on the pure EG films obtained by filtration of 2 m L EG dispersion w hile other steps were kept the same as MG-MSCs.Apparently,the CVs of MG-MSCs-1,MG-MSCs-2 and MG-MSCs-3 in comparison with EG-MSCs(Fig.S2 in Supporting information)show ed the typical pseudocapacitive behavior originating from 2D Mn O2 nanosheets,and the increased current integration with increasing the volume of Mn O2 and EG dispersion from 1 m L to 2 m L and 4 m L(Fig.3e).Similarly,this result was also con firmed by the GCD curves,which exhibited the stepwise discharge time,indicative of the increased areal capacitance(Fig.3f).Further,GCD curves disclosed a small IR voltage drop and good reversibility of charge storage,indicative of high conductivity of MG films.The areal capacitance of MG-MSCs-1,MG-MSCs-2 and MG-MSCs-3 as a function of scan rate were shown in Fig.3g.Remarkably,MG-MSCs-3 presented outstanding areal capacitance of 355 m F/cm 2 at a scan rate of 1 m V/s,which is much higher than those of MG-MSCs-1(115 m F/cm 2),MG-MSCs-2(182 m F/cm 2)and EG-MSCs(0.12 m F/cm 2),and is the highest value of the state-ofthe-art Mn O2-based MSCs,such as Au/Mn O2/Au(11.9 m F/cm 2)[28], Mn O2 (225.2 m F/cm 2) [29], graphene fiber/Mn O2(42.0 m F/cm 2)[30],carbon fiber/Mn O2//carbon fiber/Mo O3(19.5 m F/cm 2)[31],graphene quantum dots//Mn O2(4.4 m F/cm 2)[32]and superior to most reported graphene-based MSCs,e.g.,nanoporous activated graphene(89.5 m F/cm 2)[33](Table S1 in Supporting information).Moreover,MG-MSCs-3 exhibited larger areal energy density (8.6μWh/cm 2) and power density(575.7μW/cm 2) than MG-MSCs-1 (2.8μWh/cm 2 and 142.8μW/cm 2),MG-MSCs-2(4.4μWh/cm 2 and 281.1μW/cm 2)(Fig.S3 in Supporting information).Certainly,it should be mentioned that MG-MSCs-3 presented high areal capacitance of 66 m F/cm 2 at a high scan rate of 100 m V/s and kept 19%of initial capacitance at 1 m V/s,which demonstrated better rate capability than those of MG-MSCs-1(16 m F/cm 2 at 100 m V/s,14%of initial capacitance)and MG-MSCs-2(32 m F/cm 2 at 100 m V/s,18%of initial capacitance)(Fig.3g).This enhanced rate capability can be well explained by the EIS spectroscopy(Fig.3h).It was observed that the complex plane plots of MG-MSCs-3 displayed lower total resistance(including charge transport resistance)and larger slope than MG-MSCs-1 and MG-MSCs-2 at a low frequency(Fig.3h).More importantly,MG-MSCs-3 show ed a significantly decreased equivalent series resistance(ESR)of 28Ω,which is much lower than those of MG-MSCs-1(85Ω)and MG-MSCs-2(50Ω),indicative of higher ion diffusion and electron transport in MG-MSCs-3.

Therefore,the outstanding performance of MG-MSCs can be attributed to rational design of MG film with an integrated synergetic effect of ultrathin pseudocapacitive Mn O2 nanosheets and high-conducting capacitive EG nanosheets:First,the layerstacked film characterize high electronic conducting pathway of EGlayer and 2D parallel ion channels between Mn O2 and EG layers,which can remarkably introduce additional pseudocapacitance and electrical double layer capacitance[34].Second,the planar structures of MG film can offer more accessible electrochemically active surfaces and extra interface for fast ion absorption/desorption and rapid electron transport,leading to remarkable rate capability and cyclingstability[35].Third,the densely packed film established by ultra-thinness and excellent mechanical flexibility of the 2D nanosheets is benefit for the significant improvement of the volumetric capacitance(97 F/cm 3)and the flexibility of planar MSCs[36].

To highlight the mechanical flexibility of MG-MSCs for microscale energy storage devices,w e further evaluated the electrochemical performance of MG-MSCsunder different bending angles and twisted state.It can be seen that the CV curves changed slightly at different bending degree(Fig.4a)and severely twisted state(Fig.4c),and 92%of initial capacitance for MG-MSCs-2 and 82%for MG-MSCs-3 at a flat stage was remained even at a highly bending angle of 180°(Fig.4b and Fig.S4a in Supporting information),demonstrative of robust mechanical flexibility of MG-MSCs-2.Note that the better flexibility of MG-MSCs-2 over MG-MSCs-3 is mainly attributed to high mass loading of MG-MSCs-3.In addition,long-life cycling stability is an insistent requirement for supercapacitors.Fig.4f show ed the CV curves obtained at 200 m V/s as a function of the cycle number.Remarkably,the capacitance retention was maintained as high as~95%after 3000 cycles for MG-MSCs-2(Fig.4g),which is better than MG-MSCs-3(~80%after 3000 cycles,Fig.S4b in Supporting information).Overall,the superior electrochemical properties of MG-MSCs-2 was substantially attributed to the full optimization of the suitable film thickness,coupling of 2D Mn O2 and EG nanosheets,and interfacial interaction of film electrode with elastic Nylon membrane substrate and aqueous gel electrolyte.
