Abstract. A novel 3D nanostructure consisting of Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and reduced graphene oxide with an extremely high electrocapacitance is described. The nanostructure consists of CNTs with embedded Ni(OH)2 nanoparticles as pillars for reduced graphene oxide sheets. Electrochemical results show that the composite displays specific capacitances as high as 1235 a…
