A systematic approach has been employed to statistically analyze the Faradaic and non-Faradaic mechanism on electrodes. Two strategies have been adopted for device design, i.e. symmetric and asymmetric, by using the metal oxide synthesized via sonochemical method and activated carbon electrode. Structural and electrochemical characterization have been performed to investigate the morphological and electrochemical properties of electrode material. Both devices are electrochemically examined by using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and Galvanostatic charge discharge (GCD) measurements to evaluate the electrochemical performance. CV curves are further explored to study the capacitive and diffusive contribution in both devices. The diffusive-controlled contribution at low scan rate in asymmetric device is about 65% which is suitable for supercapattery applications while the symmetric device shows 91 …
