Herein, a 1D wireshaped electrode was developed based on Fe_3O_4 nanosheet arrays connected on the Fe wire, which was prepared via oxidation of Fe wire in 0.1 M KCl solution(pH 3) with O2-rich environment under 70 °C. The obtained Fe_3O_4 nanosheet arrays displayed a high specific capacitance(20.8 m F cm^(-1) at 10 mV s^(-1)) and long cycling lifespan(91.7% retention after 2500 cycles). Theexcellent performance may attribute to the connected nanosheet structure with abundant open spaces and the intimate contact between the Fe_3O_4 and iron substrate. In addition, a wire-shaped asymmetric supercapacitor was fabricated and had excellent capacitive properties with a high energy density(9 l Wh cm^(-2)) at power density of 532.7 l W cm^(-2) and remarkable long-term cycling performance(99% capacitance retention after 2000 cycles).Considering low cost and earth-abundant electrode material, as well as outstanding electrochemical properties, the assembled supercapacitor will possess enormous potential for practical applications in portable electronic device.展开更多
