Sputtered Titanium Carbide Thick Film for High Areal Energy on Chip Carbon‐Based Micro‐Supercapacitors

The areal energy density of on‐chip micro‐supercapacitors should be improved in order to obtain autonomous smart miniaturized sensors. To reach this goal, high surface capacitance electrode (>100 mF cm^?2) has to be produced while keeping low the footprint area. For carbide‐derived carbon (CDC) micro‐supercapacitors, the properties of the metal carbide precursor have to be fine‐tuned to fabricate thick electrodes. The ad‐atoms diffusion process and atomic peening effect occurring during the titanium carbide sputtering process are shown to be the key parameters to produce low stress, highly conductive, and thick TiC films. The sputtered TiC at 10^?3 mbar exhibits a high stress level, limiting the thickness of the TiC‐CDC electrode to 1.5 µm with an areal capacitance that is less than 55 mF cm^?2 in aqueous electrolyte. The pressure increase up to 10^?2 mbar induces a clear reduction of the stress level while the layer thickness increases without any degradation of the TiC electronic conductivity. The volumetric capacitance of the TiC‐CDC electrodes is equal to 350 F cm^?3 regardless of the level of pressure. High values of areal capacitance (>100 mF cm^?2) are achieved, whereas the TiC layer is relatively thick, which paves the way toward high‐performance micro‐supercapacitors.

A facile one‐step printing process by 3D micro‐extrusion affording binder‐free thermally reduced graphene oxide (TRGO) based electrochemical capacitors (ECs) that display high‐rate performance is presented. Key intermediates are binder‐free TRGO dispersion printing inks with concentrations up to 15 g L^?1. This versatile printing technique enables easy fabrication of EC electrodes, useful in both aqueous and non‐aqueous electrolyte systems. The as‐prepared TRGO material with high specific surface area (SSA) of 593 m² g^?1 and good electrical conductivity of ≈16 S cm^?1 exhibits impressive charge storage performances. At 100 and 120 Hz, ECs fabricated with TRGO show time constants of 2.5 ms and 2.3 ms respectively. Very high capacitance values are derived at both frequencies ranging from 3.55 mF cm^?2 to 1.76 mF cm^?2. Additionally, these TRGO electrodes can be charged and discharged at very high voltage scan rates up to 15 V s^?1 yielding 4 F cm^?3 with 50% capacitance retention. Electrochemical performance of TRGO electrodes in electrolyte containing tetraethyl ammonium tetrafluoroborate and acetonitrile (TEABF4‐ACN) yields high energy density of 4.43 mWh cm^?3 and power density up to 42.74 kW cm^?3, which is very promising for AC line filtering application and could potentially substitute state of the art electrolytic capacitor technology.     

Flexible MXene/Graphene Films for Ultrafast Supercapacitors with Outstanding Volumetric Capacitance

A strategy to prepare flexible and conductive MXene/graphene (reduced graphene oxide, rGO) supercapacitor electrodes by using electrostatic self‐assembly between positively charged rGO modified with poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) and negatively charged titanium carbide MXene nanosheets is presented. After electrostatic assembly, rGO nanosheets are inserted in‐between MXene layers. As a result, the self‐restacking of MXene nanosheets is effectively prevented, leading to a considerably increased interlayer spacing. Accelerated diffusion of electrolyte ions enables more electroactive sites to become accessible. The freestanding MXene/rGO‐5 wt% electrode displays a volumetric capacitance of 1040 F cm^?3 at a scan rate of 2 mV s^?1 , an impressive rate capability with 61% capacitance retention at 1 V s^?1 and long cycle life. Moreover, the fabricated binder‐free symmetric supercapacitor shows an ultrahigh volumetric energy density of 32.6 Wh L^?1, which is among the highest values reported for carbon and MXene based materials in aqueous electrolytes. This work provides fundamental insight into the effect of interlayer spacing on the electrochemical performance of 2D hybrid materials and sheds light on the design of next‐generation flexible, portable and highly integrated supercapacitors with high volumetric and rate performances.     

Switchable Supercapacitors with Transistor‐Like Gating Characteristics (G‐Cap)

A novel three‐electrode electrolyte supercapacitor (electric double‐layer capacitor [EDLC]) architecture in which a symmetrical interdigital “working” two‐electrode micro‐supercapacitor array (W‐Cap) is paired with a third “gate” electrode that reversibly depletes/injects electrolyte ions into the system controlling the “working” capacity effectively is described. All three electrodes are based on precursor‐derived nanoporous carbons with well‐defined specific surface area (735 m² g^?1). The interdigitated architecture of the W‐Cap is precisely manufactured using 3D printing. The W‐Cap operating with a proton conducting PVA/H₂SO₄‐hydrogel electrolyte and high capacitance (6.9 mF cm^?2) can be repeatedly switched “on” and “off”. By applying a low DC bias potential (?0.5 V) at the gate electrode, the AC electroadsorption in the coupled interdigital nanoporous carbon electrodes of the W‐Cap is effectively suppressed leading to a stark capacity drop by two orders of magnitude from an “on” to an “off” state. The switchable micro‐supercapacitor is the first of its kind. This general concept is suitable for implementing a broad range of nanoporous materials and advanced electrolytes expanding its functions and applications in future. The integration of intelligent functions into EDLC devices has extensive implications for diverse areas such as capacitive energy management, microelectronics, iontronics, and neuromodulation.

Scalable Production of Graphene Inks via Wet‐Jet Milling Exfoliation for Screen‐Printed Micro‐Supercapacitors

The miniaturization of energy storage units is pivotal for the development of next‐generation portable electronic devices. Micro‐supercapacitors (MSCs) hold great potential to work as on‐chip micro‐power sources and energy storage units complementing batteries and energy harvester systems. Scalable production of supercapacitor materials with cost‐effective and high‐throughput processing methods is crucial for the widespread application of MSCs. Here, wet‐jet milling exfoliation of graphite is reported to scale up the production of graphene as a supercapacitor material. The formulation of aqueous/alcohol‐based graphene inks allows metal‐free, flexible MSCs to be screen‐printed. These MSCs exhibit areal capacitance (C_areal) values up to 1.324 mF cm^?2 (5.296 mF cm^?2 for a single electrode), corresponding to an outstanding volumetric capacitance (C_vol) of 0.490 F cm^?3 (1.961 F cm^?3 for a single electrode). The screen‐printed MSCs can operate up to a power density above 20 mW cm^?2 at an energy density of 0.064 µWh cm^?2. The devices exhibit excellent cycling stability over charge–discharge cycling (10 000 cycles), bending cycling (100 cycles at a bending radius of 1 cm) and folding (up to angles of 180°). Moreover, ethylene vinyl acetate‐encapsulated MSCs retain their electrochemical properties after a home‐laundry cycle, providing waterproof and washable properties for prospective application in wearable electronics.

Portable and multifunctional electronic devices are developing in the trend of being small, flexible, roll‐up, and even wearable, which asks us to develop flexible and micro‐sized energy conversion/storage devices. Here, the high performance of a flexible, wire‐shaped, and solid‐state micro‐supercapacitor, which is prepared by twisting a Ni(OH)2‐nanowire fiber‐electrode and an ordered mesoporous carbon fiber‐electrode together with a polymer electrolyte, is demonstrated. This micro‐supercapacitor displays a high specific capacitance of 6.67 mF cm^–1 (or 35.67 mF cm^–2) and a high specific energy density of 0.01 mWh cm^–2 (or 2.16 mWh cm^–3), which are about 10–100 times higher than previous reports. Furthermore, its capacitance retention is 70% over 10 000 cycles, indicating perfect cyclic ability. Two wire‐shaped micro‐supercapacitors (0.6 mm in diameter, ≈3 cm in length) in series can successfully operate a red light‐emitting‐diode, indicating promising practical application. Furthermore, synchrotron radiation X‐ray computed microtomo­graphy technology is employed to investigate inner structure of the micro‐device, confirming its solid‐state characteristic. This micro‐supercapacitor may bring new design opportunities of device configuration for energy‐storage devices in the future wearable electronic area.     

Layered Silicon‐Based Nanosheets as Electrode for 4 V High‐Performance Supercapacitor

Silicon‐based materials have shown great potential and been widely studied in various fields. Unlike its unparalleled theoretical capacity as anodes for batteries, few investigations have been reported on silicon‐based materials for applications in supercapacitors. Here, an electrode composed of layered silicon‐based nanosheets, obtained through oxidation and exfoliation, for a supercapacitor operated up to 4 V is reported. These silicon‐based nanosheets show an areal specific capacitance of 4.43 mF cm^?2 at 10 mV s^?1 while still retaining a specific capacitance of 834 µF cm^?2 even at an ultrahigh scan rate of 50 000 mV s^?1. The volumetric energy and power density of the supercapacitor are 7.65 mWh cm^?3 and 9312 mW cm^?3, respectively, and the electrode can operate for 12000 cycles in a potential window of 4 V at 2 A g^?1, while retaining 90.6% capacitance. These results indicate that the silicon‐based nanosheets can be a competitive candidate as the supercapacitor electrode material.     

Substrate‐Free and Shapeless Planar Micro‐Supercapacitors

Micro‐supercapacitors (MSCs), albeit powerful, are unable to broaden their potential applications primarily because they are not as flexible and morphable as electronics. To address this problem, a universal strategy to fabricate substrate‐free, ultrathin, shapeless planar‐MSCs with high‐performance tenability under serious deformation is put forward. These represent a new class of “all‐inside‐one” film supercapacitors, achieved by encapsulating two‐dimensional interdigital microelectrodes within chemically cross‐linked polyvinyl‐alcohol‐based hydrogel electrolyte containing graphene oxide (GO). GO nanosheets significantly improve ionic conductivity, enhance the capacitance, and boost robustness of hydrogel electrolyte. Consequently, the entire MSC, while being only 37 µm thick, can be crumpled and its shape can self‐adjust through fluid channel ten times smaller than its original size without any damage, demonstrating shapelessness. Using MXene as active material, high single‐cell areal capacitance of 40.8 mF cm^?2 is achieved from microelectrodes as thin as 5 µm. Furthermore, to demonstrate wide applicability of this protocol, screen‐printed graphene‐based highly integrated MSCs connecting nine cells in series are fabricated to stably output a high voltage of 7.2 V while crumpling them from 0.11 to 0.01 cm^?3, manifesting superior performance uniformity. This protocol allows the coexistence of high performance with incredible flexibility that may greatly diversify MSCs' applications.

Iron oxides are promising to be utilized in rechargeable alkaline battery with high capacity upon complete redox reaction (Fe³⁺ Fe⁰). However, their practical application has been hampered by the poor structural stability during cycling, presenting a challenge that is particularly huge when binder‐free electrode is employed. This paper proposes a “carbon shell‐protection” solution and reports on a ferroferric oxide–carbon (Fe₃O₄–C) binder‐free nanorod array anode exhibiting much improved cyclic stability (from only hundreds of times to >5000 times), excellent rate performance, and a high capacity of ≈7776.36 C cm^?3 (≈0.4278 C cm^?2; 247.5 mAh g^?1, 71.4% of the theoretical value) in alkaline electrolyte. Furthermore, by pairing with a capacitive carbon nanotubes (CNTs) film cathode, a unique flexible solid‐state rechargeable alkaline battery‐supercapacitor hybrid device (≈360 μm thickness) is assembled. It delivers high energy and power densities (1.56 mWh cm^?3; 0.48 W cm^?3/≈4.8 s charging), surpassing many recently reported flexible supercapacitors. The highest energy density value even approaches that of Li thin‐film batteries and is about several times that of the commercial 5.5 V/100 mF supercapacitor. In particular, the hybrid device still maintains good electrochemical attributes in cases of substantially bending, high mechanical pressure, and elevated temperature (up to 80 °C), demonstrating high environmental suitability.

This work reports a completely new type of graphite foam made of strategically created superstructures with covalently attached diverging microtubes, and their applications as electrode supports for binder‐free and additive‐free flexible supercapacitors. Because of the enhanced volumetric surface areas compared to conventional graphite foams, a high loading of pseudocapacitive materials (Mn₃O₄, 3.91 mg cm^?2, 78 wt%) is achieved. The supercapacitors provide areal capacitances as high as 820 mF cm^?2 at 1 mV s^?1, while still maintaining high rate capability and 88% retention of capacitance after 3000 continuous charging and discharging cycles. When assembled as all‐solid‐state flexible symmetric supercapacitors, they offer one of the highest full‐cell capacitances (191 mF cm^?2) among similar manganese oxide/graphene foams, and retain 80% capacitance after 1000 mechanical cycles. The potential of such flexible supercapacitors is also manifested by directly powering electric nanomotors that can trace along letters “U” and T,” which is the first demonstration of flexible supercapacitors for wireless/portable nanomanipulation systems. This work could inspire a new paradigm in designing and creating 3D porous micro/nanosuperstructures for an array of self‐powered electronic and nanomechanical applications.

Notably, using the conductive and porous LIG patterns composed of randomly stacked graphene nanosheets simultaneously acting as both microelectrodes and interconnects, the resulting LIG‐MSCs represent typical electrical double capacitive behavior, having an impressive areal capacitance of 0.62 mF cm^?2 and long‐term stability without capacitance degeneration after 10 000 cycles. Furthermore, LIG‐MSCs display exceptional mechanical flexibility and adjustable voltage and capacitance output through arbitrary arrangement of cells connected in series and in parallel, indicative of exceptional performance customization. Moreover, all‐solid‐state LIG‐MSCs working at ionogel electrolyte exhibit highly stable performance even at high temperature of 100 °C, with 90% capacitance retention over 3000 cycles, suggestive of outstanding reliability. Therefore, the LIG‐MSCs offer tremendous opportunities for miniature power source‐integrated microelectronics.

The porous fibers‐based micro‐SCs utilize solid‐state phosphoric acid/polyvinyl alcohol (H₃PO₄/PVA) and 1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate/poly(vinylidenefluoride‐co‐hexafluoropropylene) (EMIBF₄/PVDF‐HFP) electrolytes, which show significant improvements in electrochemical performances. Ultralarge capacitance (1132 mF cm^?2), high cycling‐stability, and long‐term bending‐durability are achieved based on H₃PO₄/PVA. Additionally, high energy densities of 95.7–46.9 µWh cm^?2 at power densities of 1.5–15 W cm^?2 are obtained in EMIBF₄/PVDF‐HFP. The key to higher performances stems from microfluidic‐controlled fibers with a uniformly porous network, large specific surface area (388.6 m² g^?1), optimal pyridinic nitrogen (2.44%), and high electric conductivity (30785 S m^?1) for faster ion diffusion and flooding accommodation.
