Abstract

Molybdenum nitride-based composites, specifically the two-dimensional MoN/Mo2N variants, emerge as promising electrode materials for next-generation energy storage devices. This research presents a facile synthesis approach involving a mechanochemical method followed by heat treatment at 900 ֯C in a nitrogen atmosphere to produce the MoN/Mo2N composite material. Crystallographic analysis using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and morphological characterization via high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (HRSEM) were conducted. The electrochemical evaluation demonstrated remarkable supercapacitor performance, with a specific capacitance of 306.7 F/g at 1 A/g, highlighting exceptional charge storage capacity. Even at a higher current density of 2 A/g, the composite maintained substantial reversible capacity (198.6 F/g), higher capacitance retention (95.7 %), and Coulombic efficiency (86.2 %) over 6000 cycles, showcasing its robust stability. At a challenging current density of 10 A/g, the specific capacitance remained high at 85.4 F/g. Detailed charge storage mechanism analysis, employing the Dunn method, revealed a complex interplay of capacitive and diffusive processes. Particularly noteworthy was the predominance of capacitive behavior, constituting 78.4 % at an accelerated scan rate of 100 mV/s. This observation underscores the material's advantageous propensity for a higher proportion of capacitive behavior in the charge storage mechanism at elevated scan rates, making it well-suited for applications requiring rapid energy storage and release.

利用 MoN/Mo2N 复合电极实现快速稳定的能量存储
氮化钼基复合材料,特别是二维 MoN/Mo2N 变体,有望成为下一代储能设备的电极材料。本研究介绍了一种简便的合成方法,即先采用机械化学方法,然后在氮气环境中以 900 ֯C 的温度进行热处理,从而制备出 MoN/Mo2N 复合材料。利用 X 射线衍射 (XRD) 进行了晶体学分析,并通过高分辨率扫描电子显微镜 (HRSEM) 进行了形态学表征。电化学评估显示了超级电容器的卓越性能,在 1 A/g 时的比电容为 306.7 F/g,凸显了非凡的电荷存储能力。即使在 2 A/g 的较高电流密度下,该复合材料也能在 6000 次循环中保持可逆容量(198.6 F/g)、较高的电容保持率(95.7%)和库仑效率(86.2%),显示了其强大的稳定性。在具有挑战性的 10 A/g 电流密度下,比电容仍保持在 85.4 F/g 的高水平。利用 Dunn 方法进行的详细电荷存储机制分析表明,电容和扩散过程之间存在复杂的相互作用。特别值得注意的是,电容行为占主导地位,在 100 mV/s 的加速扫描速率下占 78.4%。这一观察结果凸显了该材料的优势,即在较高的扫描速率下,电荷存储机制中电容行为所占比例较高,因此非常适合需要快速存储和释放能量的应用。
