Abstract

3D N-doped graphene crosslinked by covalent bonds is fabricated through thermal treatment of graphene oxide with a nitrogen-contained resin. The material possesses a hierarchical porous architecture, robust mechanical stability, and abundant N-doped properties. As an electrode material for supercapacitors, this multifunctional material exhibits an unprecedented specific capacitance, high rate capability, and excellent long-term cycle stability.

Keywords: 3D graphene; N-doped graphene; crosslinked graphene; supercapacitors.
