microcapacitor-flexible-EE Researchers from Chinese Academy of Sciences and Deakin University reviewed the latest advances in micro-supercapacitor (MSC) powered integrated system for flexible electronics.

Micro-supercapacitor shares a charge storage process via fast ion absorption/desorption or quick and reversibly redox reactions and are designed by in-plane structure, contributing to high power density, long-life span, and excellent integratablity. MSCs are considered as promising on-chip energy storage units for flexible electronics.

Investigating the Fundamentals of Flexible MSCs


The scientists investigated the fundamentals of flexible MSCs including planar and sandwich configuration of MSCs, 1D nanomaterials, 2D nanomaterials, and 3D nanocomposites electrode materials, different kinds of gel polymer electrolytes, fabrication technologies, and performance evaluation metrics.

Reseachers reviewed the MSCs powered integrated systems for flexible electronics with multifunction of photodetection, gas sensing, motion monitoring, body fluid monitoring, and lighting micro-LED.

Moreover, scientists discussed the challenges and opportunities for industry manufacturing technology and practical applications of micro-supercapacitors based integrated systems.
