- 詳細技術說明
- UCLA researchers have developed a supercapacitor structure with non-planar electrodes and solid-state electrolytes. One possible electrode structure is an array of conductive quasi-one-dimensional nanostructures formed vertically and orthogonal to a planar metallic surface. The design combines the advantage of high surface area and high conductivity for nanostructured electrodes with the convenience of solid-state electrolyte, enabling miniaturization of supercapacitor devices for on-chip applications.The high surface area and high electrical conductivity allow excellent energy and power density.

Background
Supercapacitors are widely applicable and have been developed commercially, usually for bulk energy storage applications. Supercapacitors are significantly more efficient for rapid charge-discharge cycles, such as those seen in an electric car. A supercapacitor device is typically composed of two metal plates and a liquid electrolyte. Because of the liquid electrolyte, these supercapacitors require tough, rigid packaging and are resistant to miniaturization. By contrast, standard capacitors use a solid electrolyte to minimize internal resistance and maximize charge retention.
