Various synthetic protocols along with structural parameters of the obtained products are crucial to achieve desired electrochemical properties for electrode materials. Herein, sheet-like hierarchical NiO/NiMoO4 (NNMO) hybrid nanostructures are synthesized by one-step rapid & energy saving green microwave-assisted approach (M-NNMO) and compared their physicochemical-electrochemical properties with hydrothermally synthesized H-NNMO. The as-synthesized materials are characterized by various spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. As an electroactive pseudocapacitive material, M-NNMO shows maximum specific capacity of 459.0 Cg−1 (1147.5 Fg−1), while H-NNMO delivers specific capacity of 271.1 Cg−1 (677.8 Fg−1) at a current density of 1 Ag−1. The superior performance of the M-NNMO is closely related to its low crystallinity, high bulk (147.9 m2g−1)/ electroactive surface area (26.7 cm2), and mesoporosity within hierarchical assembly. Furthermore, asymmetric supercapacitors are fabricated by NNMOs nanostructures as the positive and commercial activated carbon as the negative electrode. M-NNMO//AC device exhibits maximum specific capacity of 203.0 Cg−1, promising specific energy/ power of 38.6 Whkg−1/ 685.2 WKg−1, while H-NNMO//AC shows specific capacity of 169.5 Cg−1, specific energy and power of 32.4 Whkg−1 and 688.6 WKg−1, respectively, at a current density of 1 Ag−1. Maximum cyclability (~84% capacity retention after 2250 cycles) of H-NNMO//AC may be correlated with better crystallinity and thermal/ structural stability of H-NNMO hybrid nanostructure. Based on results, we suggest that the NNMO hybrid nanostructures can be promising electrode materials for electrochemical energy storage application.
