“…Nevertheless, conductivity of these oxides is found to be low and not to be favored in speedy electron transportation with high performance capability, which confines the commercial application in energy storage devices. However, transition-metal sulfides such as Ni 3 S 2 , FeS 2 , NiS 2 , MoS 2 , CuS, CoS 2 , Zn 0.5 Co 0.5 S, etc., exhibit high specific capacitance, because of the good electrical properties. In these electrode materials, nickel sulfide (NiS) is found to be an important metal sulfide electrode material with good electronic conduction, low toxicity, low cost, high redox activity, good sustainability, unique structural features, intriguing properties, and ease of fabrication .…”
