Templated Nanocrystal-Based Porous TiO2 Films for Next-Generation Electrochemical Capacitors

Brezesinski, Torsten, Wang, John, Polleux, Julien, Dunn, Bruce, Tolbert, Sarah H.·2009·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

The advantages in using nanoscale materials for electrochemical energy storage are generally attributed to short diffusion path lengths for both electronic and lithium ion transport. Here, we consider another contribution, namely the charge storage from faradaic processes occurring at the surface, referred to as pseudocapacitive effect. This paper describes the synthesis and pseudocapacitive characteristics of block copolymer templated anatase TiO(2) thin films synthesized using either sol-gel reagents or preformed nanocrystals as building blocks. Both materials are highly crystalline and have large surface areas; however, the structure of the porosity is not identical. The different titania systems are characterized by a combination of small- and wide-angle X-ray diffraction/scattering, combined with SEM imaging and physisorption measurements. Following our previously reported approach, we are able to use the voltammetric sweep rate dependence to determine quantitatively the capacitive contribution to the current response. Considerable enhancement of the electrochemical properties results when the films are both made from nanocrystals and mesoporous. Such materials show high levels of capacitive charge storage and high insertion capacities. By contrast, when mesoscale porosity is created in a material with dense walls (rather than porous walls derived from the aggregation of nanocrystals), insertion capacities comparable to templated nanocrystal films can be achieved, but the capacitance is much lower. The results presented here illustrate the importance of pseudocapacitive behavior that develops in high surface area mesoporous oxide films. Such systems provide a new class of pseudocapacitive materials, which offer increased charge storage without compromising charge storage kinetics.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
