Abstract: | Layers of cobalt and manganese oxides were co-deposited or deposited on top of each other or next to each other by potentiostatic
method onto stainless steel substrate. Deposition potentials of 1 and −1 V for the anodic and cathodic depositions were employed.
Specific capacitance values in the range of 38.5–78 F g−1 were found with cobalt oxide on top of manganese oxide having the lowest and manganese oxide on top of cobalt oxide having
the highest capacitances. The usefulness of the electrodes was characterized by cyclic voltammetry, charge–discharge cycling,
and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in 2 M NaOH electrolyte for redox supercapacitor applications. The latter presented
the best charge/discharge behavior with no voltage drop due to lower ohmic resistance in prepared substrate; although the
steadiest current observed in the course of voltammetry was due to the former. The evaluated double layer and specific capacitances
for co-deposited sample according to the impedance studies were 1.75 and 47.5 F g−1, respectively, being in good agreement with voltammetric measurements. |
