One-Pot Synthesis of Bismuth Sulfide Nanostructures as an Active Electrode Material for Aqueous Hybrid Capacitors

One-Pot Synthesis of Bismuth Sulfide Nanostructures as an Active Electrode Material for Aqueous Hybrid Capacitors

The high theoretical capacity of Bi<sub>2</sub>S<sub>3</sub> shows high promise as a negative electrode material for energy storage devices. Herein, we investigate a facile, one-step chemical precipitation method using common organic solvents, such as acetone, ethanol, and is...
