Abstract
Composite electrodes consisting of $CoMnO_2$ and carbon nanofibers(vapor grown carbon nanofiber, VGCF) with high electrical conducivity($CoMnO_2$/VGCF) were prepared on a porous nickel foam substrate as a current collector and their supercapacitive properties were investigated using cyclic voltammetry in 1 M KOH aqueous solution. The $CoMnO_2$/VGCF electrode exhibited high specific capacitance value of 630 F/g at 5 mV/s and excellent capacitance retention of 95% after $10^4$ cycles, indicating that the used VGCF played the important roles in reducing the interfacial resistance in the composite electrode to improve supercapacitive performance.
