Performance Assessment of Fe0.5Cu0.5S/rGO Hybrid Composite as Potential Material for Advanced Energy Storage Applications
Transition metal sulfides have found a popular spot in research for super capacitive materials due to their enhanced power density and conductivity. This study reports the preparation of a hybrid iron copper sulfide, Fe0.5Cu0.5S/rGO, composite via the co-precipitation method. The structural and morphological characterization was carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which confirmed the successful integration of Fe0.5Cu0.5S with rGO. The composite exhibited a high specific capacitance of 416.91 F/g at 1 A/g, 330.65% higher than 96.81 F/g of Fe0.5Cu0.5S and outstanding cyclic stability. The enhanced performance can be attributed to the synergistic effects of Fe0.5Cu0.5S and rGO, facilitating efficient charge transfer kinetics, ion diffusion, and structural stability, making it a promising candidate for high-performing supercapacitor applications.
