Three-dimensional (3D) polyaniline (PANI)-graphene nanoribbon (GNR)-carbon nanotube (CNT) composite, PANI-GNR-CNT, was prepared via in-situ polymerization of aniline monomer on the surface of a GNR-CNT hybrid. This hierarchical PANI-GNR-CNT composite with the two-electrode cell assembly showed much higher specific capacitance (890 F/g) than the GNR-CNT hybrid (195 F/g) and neat PANI (283 F/g) at a discharge current density of 0.5 A/g. This composite exhibited good cycling stability with a retention ratio of 89% after 1000 cycles [63].
