Consider an electric vehicle that takes only a few seconds to recharge while braking and then using that energy to power up the vehicle until the next stop. Imagine a lightweight smartphone that, ...

By enabling higher-voltage, longer-lasting supercapacitors, the innovation aligns with Aatma Nirbhar Bharat and India's clean ...

Supercapacitors have long promised electric vehicles that refill in minutes, grids that shrug off sudden surges, and gadgets that never seem to wear out, but their limited energy storage has kept them ...

Engineers have achieved a breakthrough that could redefine the future of energy storage. Scientists at Monash University have developed a novel carbon-based material for supercapacitors that combines ...

Graphene has been very hot in scientific circles since it was first produced in 2004. This one-atom thick layer of carbon has been found to have such remarkable properties that its discoverers were ...

The utility of supercapacitors lies within their capability of delivering and receiving high currents, making them effective for applications that require frequent energy storage and energy release.

Scientists have set themselves the goal of improving these ubiquitous, fast storage devices by developing a new kind of electrode based on graphene. Supercapacitors are the nimble little siblings of ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The proliferation of wearable devices—from smart watches to AR glasses—necessitates ever-smaller on-board energy solutions that can deliver bursts of power while remaining ...

Graphene capacitors are both highly flexible and have an energy density far beyond existing electrochemical capacitors, possibly within reach of conventional lithium-ion and nickel metal hydride ...

While graphene has long been heralded as the future of supercapacitors, new research indicates that fibers from hemp plants can contain as much energy and power as graphene itself. What’s more, its ...
