Description
Summary:A feasible approach to rectify the world's energy demand using sustainable development of adequate energy generation and storage technologies in a single channel. In this respect, we made a holistic approach with a bi-functional electrode material to perform effectively in energy generation and storage applications. MoS2 nanosheets were produced by the eco-friendly method and reduced graphene oxide is used to prepared by carbon soot which is derived from castor oil. The prepared soot and rGO were combined with MoS2 nanosheets using a simple sonication method. The as-prepared sample was introduced in the supercapacitor and DSSC application. The combination MoS2@rGO provides an enhanced conversion efficiency of 11.81 ​% and the reproducibility of DSSC is also studied. Further, MoS2@rGO is used to fabricate an asymmetric supercapacitor to investigate its real-time application. The device produced the maximum power density (1666.6 ​mW/kg) and energy density (25.69 ​mWh/Kg) at 1 A/g. The asymmetric supercapacitor device holds a cyclic stability of 81.4 % for 5000 cycles and it powered up an LED device for 4 ​min.
