Speech Title: Porous 3D Cross-Linked Graphene for Supercapacitor Application

Abstract: A simple, eco-friendly, cost-effective heteroatoms (nitrogen, phosphorus, and fluorine) co-doped graphene oxide (NPFG) is synthesized by hydrothermal functionalization and freeze-drying approach. The effect of different heteroatoms doping on the energy storage performance of synthesized reduced graphene oxide is investigated extensively. This study demonstrates that the nitrogen, phosphorous, and fluorine co-doped graphene (NPFG-0.3) synthesized with the optimum amount of pentafluoropyridine and phytic acid (PA) exhibits a notably enhanced specific capacitance (319 Fg-1 at 0.5 Ag-1), good rate capability, short relaxation time constant (τ = 28.4 ms), and higher diffusion coefficient of electrolytic cations (Dk+ = 8.8261×10-9 cm2 s–1) in 6 M KOH aqueous electrolyte. A symmetric coin cell supercapacitor device fabricated using NPFG-0.3 as the anode and cathode material with 6 M KOH aqueous electrolyte exhibit maximum specific energy of 38 W h kg-1, the maximum specific power of 716 W kg-1, and ~88.2% capacitance retention after 10000 cycles.
