Abstract

Laser reduction of graphene oxide (GO) with direct-write technology is promising to develop miniaturized energy storage devices because of highly flexible, mask-free, and chemical-free merits. However, laser reduction of GO is often accompanied with deflagration (spectacular and violent deoxygenating reaction), leading reduced graphene oxide (rGO) films into brittle and irregular internal structure which is harmful to the applications. Here, a pre-reduction strategy is demonstrated to avoid this deflagration and realize a uniform laser-reduced GO (LrGO) matrix for the application of flexible micro-supercapacitors (MSCs).The pre-reduction process with ascorbic acid decreases the content of oxygen-containing functional groups on GO in advance, and thus relieves gases emission and avoids unconstrained expansion during the laser reduction process. In addition, a self-assembled skeleton with pre-reduced GO (PGO) nanosheets could be constructed which is a more appropriate aforehand framework for laser reduction to establish controllable rGO films with the homogenous porosity. The quasi-solid-state MSCs assembled with laser-reduced PGO exhibit the maximum areal capacitance of 88.32 mF cm−2, good cycling performance (capacitance retention of 82% after 2000 cycles), and outstanding flexibility (no capacitance degradation after bending for 5000 times). This finding provides opportunities to enhance quality of LrGO which is promising for micro-power devices and beyond.
