Abstract

PEDOT coated iron phosphide nanorod arrays are synthesized and demonstrated as high-performance negative electrodes for supercapacitors with high areal specific capacitance and significantly improved cycling stability. A MnO₂//FeP/PEDOT aqueous asymmetric supercapacitor is fabricated with a high volumetric capacitance of 4.53 F cm^-3 and an energy density of 1.61 mW h cm^-3.
