Nanostructured nickel cobalt sulfide (NiCo₂S₄) electrodes are successfully fabricated using a simple alternate-dip-coating method. The process involves dipping a TiO₂ nanoparticles-covered substrate in a nickel/cobalt precursor solution and sulfur precursor solution alternately at room temperature. The fabricated bimetallic sulfide electrode exhibits a synergetic improvement compensating for the disadvantages of the two single metal sulfide electrodes, i.e. the poor cycle stability of the nickel sulfide electrode and the low specific capacitance (C_sp) of the cobalt sulfide electrode. The two capacitive properties are optimized by adjusting the ratio of nickel and cobalt concentrations in the metal precursor solution, reaching a C_sp of 516 F g⁻¹ at a current density of 1 mA cm⁻², with its retention being 99.9% even after 2000 galvanostatic charge–discharge cycles.
