Sumario:A facile hydrothermal approach was adopted to the direct synthesis of bimetallic sulfide (CuCo(2)S(4)) on carbon cloth (CC) without binders for the supercapacitor's electrodes. A possible formation mechanism was proposed. The prepared bimetallic electrode exhibited a high specific capacitance (Csp) of 1,312 F·g(−1) at 1 A·g(−1), and an excellent capacitance retention of 94% at 5 A·g(−1) over 5,000 cycles. In addition, the asymmetric supercapacitor (CuCo(2)S(4)/CC//AC/CC) exhibited energy density (42.9 wh·kg(−1) at 0.8 kW·kg(−1)) and outstanding cycle performance (80% initial capacity retention after 5,000 cycles at 10 A·g(−1)). It should be noted that the electrochemical performance of a supercapacitor device is quite stable at different bending angles. Two charged devices in series can light 28 red-colored LEDs (2.0 V) for 5 min. All of this serves to indicate the potentially high application value of CuCo(2)S(4).
