A low-cost high-performance solid-state flexible asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) with α-MnO2 nanowires and amorphous Fe2O3 nanotubes grown on flexible carbon fabric is first designed and fabricated. The assembled novel flexible ASC device with an extended operating voltage window of 1.6 V exhibits excellent performance such as a high energy density of 0.55 mWh/cm and good rate capability. The A...

Fe2O3 nanorods exposing (001) and (010) plane as well as Fe2O3 nanosheets exposing (001) plane have been successfully synthesized. Fe2O3 nanosheets exhibit better cycle performance and rate capabilities than that of Fe2O3 nanorods. The discharge capacity of Fe2O3 nanosheets can stabilize at 865 mAh/g at the rate of 0.2 C (1C = 1000 mA/g) and 570 mAh/g at the rate of 1.2 C after 80 cycles, which...

Enhanced gas sensing properties of hematite \(\alpha\)-Fe2O3 by loaded reduced graphene oxides (RGO) have attracted considerable attention. In this study, RGO-loaded nanofibers were fabricated via the facile electrospinning method and subsequent calcination process. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images showed that with diameters 50-100 nm typical morphologies spider nets. X-ray diffrac...

Hematite (α-Fe2O3) persists as a promising candidate for photoelectrochemical water splitting, but a slow oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at its surfaces remains a limitation. Here we extend a series of studies that examine pH-dependent surface potentials and electron-transfer properties of effectively perfect low-index crystal faces of hematite in contact with simple electrolyte. Zero-resistan...
