Simple Synthesis and Supercapacitive Performances of NiMoS4 Particles

Abstract

A simple method was used to prepare amorphous NiMoS4 particles that were subsequently characterized with X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence spectrum, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectrum. The supercapacitive properties of NiMoS4 were measured for the first time. It exhibits high capacitance and low charge ion transfer resistance owing to its accessible multiple valences, amorphous structure and high conductivity of sulfides.
