چکیده
Transparent and flexible energy storage devices have garnered great interest due to their suitability for display, sensor and photovoltaic applications. In this paper, we report the application of aerosol synthesized and dry deposited single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) thin films as electrodes for an electrochemical double-layer capacitor (EDLC). SWCNT films exhibit extremely large specific capacitance (178 F g(-1) or 552 μF cm(-2)), high optical transparency (92%) and stability for 10 000 charge/discharge cycles. A transparent and flexible EDLC prototype is constructed with a polyethylene casing and a gel electrolyte.

Contamination-free and damage-free patterning of single-walled carbon nanotube transparent conductive films on flexible substrates.
High quality patterning of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transparent conductive films is achieved by a lift-off aluminum interlayer method, which has the advantage of resulting in contamination-free and damage-free SWCNTs. The obtained patterns preserve the electrical properties of the SWCNT films and show promising applications in flexible high frequency electronic and display devices.

We report a simple, low cost, electrochemical deposition method to pattern gold nanoparticles on flexible, transparent, single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) films, and demonstrate the application of the gold-patterned SWCNT films as surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy substrates and biosensing electrodes for non-enzymatic glucose detection.
متن کاملFabrication and characterization of thin films of single-walled carbon nanotube bundles on flexible plastic substrates.
A convenient method to obtain patterns of films of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) bundles on flexible plastic is described. Using the Line Patterning method SWNT films of thickness ranging from approximately 300-1500 nm can be obtained from aqueous surfactant-supported dispersions of chemically purified SWNT bundles synthesized by the pulsed-laser ablation method. These films are strongl...
