For this purpose, the hybrid supercapacitor power cell were prepared composing 3D porous graphene decorated with Co_3O_4-CeO_2 nano-particles herein by using flower stem as biotemplate. The resulting samples were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), Raman spectra, X-ray diffraction spectroscopy(XRD), nitrogen adsorption and desorption, X-ray photoelectron spectrogram(XPS), and electrochemical test. The 3D graphene acted as an excellent carrier together with Co_3O_4-CeO_2 nano-particles, boosting the specific capacitance of composite(221 F/g), which exceeded the theoretical value limit. This facile biotemplate method of research provided an eco-friendly and cut-price route to obtain high-quality graphene and Co_3O_4-CeO_2nano-composites owing to the unique porous structure derived from original template(flower stem). The finding presented a simple strategy for fabrication of novel energy storage devices.展开更多
