Metal oxides (like MnO2, Fe2O3, and Co3O4, etc) based supercapacitors have disadvantages, such as low volumetric capacitance for thick-film electrodes, or short cycling life because a Faradaic process involves chemical changes of state of the reactant species. In the present work, we report that supercapacitors based on reduced graphene oxide and maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) composites (GγM) exhibit superior performance. GγM electrodes with average electrode thickness up to ∼60 μm have a high volumetric capacitance of 230 F cm−3, together with an outstanding electrode package density of 1.44 g cm−3. Particularly, the GγM electrodes have excellent cycling performance of ∼90% capacitance retention over 100,000 galvanostatic charge–discharge cycles or voltage floating at 0.9 V for 300 h. No detectable change in phase and an effective inhibition of γ-Fe2O3 refinement after cycle-life test are confirmed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy.
