Popis: The metal element doping strategy is often used to optimize the electrode materials of supercapacitors as they can provide rich redox active sites and high conductivity; however, the synergistic effect between different metallic ions and the interfacial interaction mechanism during the energy storage process are still unclear. In this work, Mo-doped Ni-Mo-S (NMS) nanoflowers are prepared by one-step electrodeposition, and the ratios of Ni : Mo are tailored. Dynamics analysis shows that the Mo element occupies a prominent position in the capacitive behavior contribution. Meanwhile, density functional theory (DFT) reveals that Mo doping influences the electronic structure of the NMS materials and their affinity towards OH
