However, the challenge remains to develop a simple, scalable fabrication method that achieves both high energy and power densities. In this study, we present a refined approach to fabricating MSCs with 3D interconnected graphene/carbon nanotube (CNT) composite electrodes. Our method combines flash lamp annealing (FLA) and laser ablation, where FLA converts graphene oxide (GO) and CNT composite films into 3D-structured graphene/CNT electrodes, and laser ablation precisely patterns them into interdigitated designs. This dual-process technique produces MSCs with exceptional electrochemical performance, including an impressive areal capacitance of 26.11 mF/cm<sup>2</sup> and a volumetric capacitance of 31.88 F/cm<sup>3</sup>. These devices also achieve energy densities of 3.72 μWh/cm<sup>2</sup> and 4.43 mWh/cm<sup>3</sup>, maintaining 97 % of their initial capacitance under extreme bending, demonstrating outstanding mechanical flexibility and durability. Furthermore, the scalability of this method was validated by configuring MSCs in series and parallel, achieving enhanced voltage and current outputs without additional interconnections. Overall, the integration of FLA and laser ablation holds significant promise for advancing the performance and scalability of micro-sized energy storage devices, addressing the growing need for efficient, flexible, and high-capacity micro-power sources.</p>","PeriodicalId":132,"journal":{"name":"Batteries & Supercaps","volume":"7 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142861161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It demonstrates how individual aging modes—the loss of accessible active material from an electrode or the depletion of cyclable lithium ions—affect the capacities and balancing between the electrodes. These changes are visualized by color-coded surfaces that represent electrode potentials in the full cell′s cyclation window, transitioning from green to red to indicate degradation. Such alterations lead to a measurable capacity fade and changes in the full cell′s potential curve, as depicted by the differential voltage curve. The underlying work combines this mechanistic model with a data-driven model approach of the individual aging modes to predict both capacity fade and changes to the potential curve under various aging conditions. This will help to enhance understanding and prediction of battery degradation and can be the basis for a more precise onboard state-of-charge and state-of-health estimation of degraded batteries.
