Asymmetric supercapacitors (ASCs) with carbon nanotube@nickel hydroxide nanosheet (CNT@Ni(OH)(2)) core-shell composites as positive electrodes and three-dimensional (3D) graphene networks (3DGNs) as negative electrodes were reported in aqueous KOH electrolyte. The CNT@Ni(OH)(2) core-shell composites were prepared through a facile chemical bath deposition method, while 3DGNs were obtained by freeze-drying of graphene hydrogels. By virtue of their unique microstructures, superb electrochemical properties were achieved in a three-electrode system, e.g., 1136 F g(-1) at 2 A g(-1) for the CNT@Ni(OH)(2) electrode within 0-0.5 V and 203 F g(-1) at 1 A g(-1) for the 3DGN electrode within -1-0 V. Benefiting from these merits, the as-fabricated CNT@Ni(OH)(2)//3DGN ASC showed a maximum energy density of 44.0 W h kg(-1) at a power density of 800 W kg(-1) and even retained 19.6 W h kg(-1) at 16 000 W kg-(1) in the voltage region of 0-1.6 V.
