研究目的
To explore the dual application of porous NiMoS4 microspheres in energy harvesting and storage, specifically in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) and supercapacitors (SCs), and to compare their performance with NiS2 nanosheets, MoS2 nanosheets, and Pt counter electrodes.
研究成果
Porous NiMoS4 microspheres synthesized via a facile hydrothermal technique demonstrated superior performance in both DSSCs and SCs. The NiMoS4 CE achieved a high PCE of 8.9% in DSSCs, outperforming Pt CEs. In SCs, the NiMoS4//AC ASC showed excellent specific capacitance, high energy density, and superior cycling stability, indicating its potential for energy storage applications.
研究不足
The study focuses on the synthesis and application of NiMoS4 microspheres in DSSCs and SCs. Limitations may include the scalability of the hydrothermal synthesis method and the long-term stability of the materials under operational conditions.
