Enhancing capacitance behaviour of CoOOH nanostructures using transition metal dopants by ambient oxidation

Cobalt hydrate and doped binary Co(0.9)M(0.1)OOH (M = Ni, Mn, Fe) nanorings of 100–300 nm were fabricated in solution through a facile ambient oxidation method. A transformation from Co(0.9)Ni(0.1)(OH)(2) nanodiscs to hollow Co(0.9)Ni(0.1)OOH nanorings was observed with prolonged reaction time. Core...

Sumario:Cobalt hydrate and doped binary Co(0.9)M(0.1)OOH (M = Ni, Mn, Fe) nanorings of 100–300 nm were fabricated in solution through a facile ambient oxidation method. A transformation from Co(0.9)Ni(0.1)(OH)(2) nanodiscs to hollow Co(0.9)Ni(0.1)OOH nanorings was observed with prolonged reaction time. Core-shell nanodiscs have elemental segregation with a Co(OH)(2) core and Ni(OH)(2) shell. Co(0.9)Ni(0.1)OOH nanorings displayed a higher electrochemical capacitance than Mn and Fe doped nanorings materials or materials with disc-like geometries.
