Abstract
Supercapacitors (SCs) are emerging as critical components in the evolution of modern electronics, particularly as devices become more flexible, portable, and highly integrated, owing to their excellent stability, high power density, and long operational life. Various functional SCs, such as flexible SCs, transparent SCs, and micro-SCs, are highly demanded to meet the requirements of the next generation of optoelectronic products. For the construction of high-performance multifunctional SCs, three key approaches were mainly introduced: synthesis of stable electrode materials, development of flexible transparent hybrid electrodes, and fabrication of inkjet-printed SC devices. In this perspective, recent development of high-performance SCs has been presented and discussed in detail. Finally, the outlook on the future developments and potential applications of SCs has been provided.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
