Abstract

Abstract Two‐dimensional materials have attracted increasing research interest owing to their unique electronic, physical, optical, and mechanical properties. We thus developed a general strategy for the fabrication of ultralong hybrid microfibers from a mixture of reduced graphene oxide and transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), including MoS 2 , TiS 2 , TaS 2 , and NbSe 2 . Furthermore, we prepared fiber‐based solid‐state supercapacitors as a proof‐of‐concept application. The performance of thus‐prepared supercapacitors was greatly improved by the introduction of the TMDs.
