title: Enhanced Capacitance of TiO2 Single Crystals Through Chemically Deposited Graphene Films.
abstract: Single-crystals of titanium oxide (TiO2) were wrapped in a graphene (G) film by chemical deposition. The morphology, composition and structure of the resulting composite were subsequently characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD and FT-IR analysis. The electrochemical properties of the composites were studied by cyclic voltammetry, which showed that the introduction of graphene enhances the electrode conductivity, thereby improving the supercapacitive behavior of TiO2. Galvanostatic charge-discharge tests demonstrated that a supercapacitor device fabricated from TiO2 crystals wrapped in graphene (G-TiO2) exhibits a good cycle life, with 94% stability even after 1000 cycles.
