摘要: Abstract NiO, CeO2 and respective composites are extensively used in energy storage devices due to mostly their high electrochemical activity. However, the assessment of battery-like behavior Ni-ceria based systems comprising (Ni or Gd)-doped ceria combined with NiO seems be neglected literature. In this work, ceria-based solid solutions composite powders were obtained by a co-precipitation synthesis method. The structure particle size calcined investigated X-ray diffractometry (XRD) field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), respectively. Oxidative states inspected photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). performance was evaluated cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge-discharge impedance spectroscopy. Refinement XRD patterns showed that have nanosized crystallites mean particles within 20 – 70 nm revealed FESEM. improved specific capacity NiO-CeO2 electrode material (about 2.5 times higher than NiO-CGO at 5 mV s−1) is an increase Faradic reactions taken place on its surface fraction defects (namely Ni3+, Ce3+ oxygen vacancies), as determined XPS. superior also confirmed
