Abstract

Ni/Ni(OH)<sub>2</sub> NSs were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method using EtOH as reducing agent. Asymmetric device is fabricated using AC and Ni/Ni(OH)<sub>2</sub> NSs as electrodes, with optimized specific capacitance of 62 F g<sup>−1</sup> and a maximum energy density of 23.45 W h kg<sup>−1</sup>.
