Here we report the development of a high-performance electrode material composed of Zn and Ni co-substituted Co carbonate hydroxide (ZnNi-Co2(CO3)(OH)2) nanothorns branched on Cu(OH)2 nanorods array (Cu(OH)2@ZnNi-Co2(CO3)(OH)2), which are grown directly on copper foam current collector. The electrod...
