One-Pot Synthesis of Glucose-Derived Carbon Coated Ni<sub>3</sub>S<sub>2</sub> Nanowires as a Battery-Type Electrode for High Performance Supercapacitors

We report a novel Ni<sub>3</sub>S<sub>2</sub> carbon coated (denoted as NCC) rod-like structure prepared by a facile one-pot hydrothermal method and employ it as a binder free electrode in supercapacitor. We coated carbon with glucose as carbon source on the surface of sample...
