Synthesis and Characterization of MnCo2O4 Cuboidal Microcrystals as a High Performance Psuedocapacitor Electrode

Manganese cobaltite (MnCo2O4) is currently under screening as a high performance supercapacitor electrode owing to its high theoretical capacitance, improved electrical conductivity and long term cyclic stability. Herein, we report synthesis of MnCo2O4 cuboidal microcrystals using hydrothermal metho...
