A simple, binder‐free fabrication of high capacitance electrodes based on manganese dioxide (MnO 2 ) thin films is reported. The 3D structure of these electrodes significantly improves the areal capacitance of the MnO 2 thin films up to 670 mF cm −2 in aqueous electrolyte, which is 4.5 times higher than the best reported capacitance of 3D electrodes thus far. This capacitance is on the same order of magnitude as that of a bulk carbon electrode. Moreover, the 3D MnO 2 ‐based electrode exhibits a stable cycling behavior for more than 15 000 cycles.
