Abstract The effectiveness of cobalt silicide nanowires grown on silicon substrate by chemical vapor deposition method as electrode material for micro-supercapacitors has been investigated. The as-synthesized cobalt silicide nanowires densely cover the silicon substrate and have small diameters of 40-70 nm. They showed the crystal structures and chemical composition of cobalt-rich silicides (Co3Si, Co2Si). Electrochemical measurements showed that the cobalt silicide nanowires exhibit high areal capacitance and good rate capability. The cobalt silicide nanowires grown on silicon substrates present many advantages for supercapacitor application, including high surface area, low resistivity, and good mechanical adhesion with the silicon substrate showing great promise for applications in micro-supercapacitors.
