Graphene based transition metal oxide composites and its application towards supercapacitor

The layered materials offer mostly atomically thin 2D planes to the charge carrier with superior conducting properties. The thickness at the atomic level, band gap, spin-orbit coupling electronic and optoelectronic properties of transition metal dichalcogenides make them one of the promising entities in energy harvesting technologies. The review suggests some strategies to improve the transition metals-composites stability conducting properties to be tailored to various applications.

Two-dimensional (2D) graphene and its outstanding properties such as enormous conductivities, mechanical strength, and optical and electrical properties brought it one of the most studied materials for the production of energy using renewable resources. The composites of graphene with the same morphological materials such as layered transition metal oxides will be the most aspiring combination to boost their conducting, optoelectronic and mechanical properties. Furthermore, the transition metal chalcogenide materials attracted significant attention due to their atomically thin layers and enormous optical, conducting, and electrical properties.
