Flexible Solid Supercapacitors of Novel Nanostructured Electrodes Outperform Most Supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: Sustainable and scalable fabrication of electrode materials with high energy and power densities is paramount for the development of future electrochemical energy storage devices. The electrode material of a supercapacitor should have high electrical conductivity, good thermal and chemical stability, and a high surface area per unit volume (or per unit mass). Researchers have made great efforts to use two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, but the separated 2D plates are re-stacked during processing for electrode fabrication, impeding the transport of ions and reducing the number of active sites. We developed a novel process for manufacturing thin and flexible electrodes using a 2D material (MXene,Ti₃AlC₂) and a conducting polymer (poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene), PEDOT
