Sacrificial MOF-derived MnNi hydroxide for high energy storage supercapacitor electrodes via DFT-based quantum capacitance study

, highlighting its remarkable durability. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted to explore the quantum capacitance of the bimetallic hydroxide. The DFT results revealed electron density near the Fermi level, which directly contributes to the high quantum capacitance of Mn(OH)₂/Ni(OH)₂ with a Mn:Ni molar ratio of 3:1. This work underscores the potential of MOF-derived materials as a promising route for the development of high-performance supercapacitor electrodes, paving the way for future advances in electrochemical energy storage technologies.
