Description
Microsupercapacitors systematically guides the reader through the key materials, characterization techniques, performance factors and potential applications and benefits to society of this emerging electrical energy storage solution. It reviews the technical challenges in scaling down supercapacitors from the materials, performance, design, and applications perspective.
The book provides a fundamental understanding of microsupercapacitors and compares them to existing energy storage technologies. It also considers the factors that impact performance and potential tactics to improve performance. The book concludes with a clear assessment of the barriers to implementation, emerging solutions to those barriers, and a future outlook. Microsupercapacitors will be of particular interest for materials scientists and engineers working in academia and research and development.
