Abstract
Abstract One-dimensional (1D) MoO 2 nanorods were prepared by thermal decomposition of tetrabutylammonium hexamolybdate (((C 4 H 9 ) 4 N) 2 Mo 6 O 19 ) in an inert atmosphere. The synthesized nanorods have been characterized by XRD, TEM and HRTEM. The capacitive behaviour of 1D MoO 2 nanorods was studied by galvanostatic charge–discharge studies in 1 M H 2 SO 4 solution at different current densities. The results indicate that the MoO 2 nanorods show good capacitive behaviour with a specific capacitance of 140 Fg −1 .
