  • Abstract

The present work includes the synthesis and characterization of zinc ferrite (ZnFe 2 O 4)/graphene nanosheets composite as electrodes for supercapacitor application. The structural properties were studied using x-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The synthesized electrode was further analyzed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy for surface morphology, which confirm the particle adherences between ZnFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles and graphene nano-sheets. The SEM images also confirmed a highly porous structure leading to excellent ion transportability, and a larger surface area for high amounts of charge storage. The device performance of the ZnFe 2 O 4/graphene nanosheets as electrodes was tested via electrochemical analysis, cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge/discharge, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.
