Mess is best: Disordered structure of battery-like devices improves performance
The energy density of supercapacitors — battery-like devices that can charge in seconds or a few minutes — can be improved by increasing the ‘messiness’ of their internal structure. Researchers led by the University of Cambridge used experimental and computer modelling techniques to study the porous carbon electrodes used in supercapacitors. They found that electrodes … Read more
