چکیده

Electrochemical energy conversion devices are pervasive in our daily lives. Batteries, fuel cells and supercapacitors belong to the same family of energy conversion devices. They are all based on the fundamentals of electrochemical thermodynamics and kinetics. All three are needed to service the wide energy requirements of various devices and systems. Neither batteries, fuel cells nor electrochemical capacitors, by themselves, can serve all applications.

Electrode Materials for Lithium Ion Batteries: A Review

Electrochemical energy storage systems are categorized into different types, according to their mechanisms, including capacitors, supercapacitors, batteries and fuel cells. All battery systems include some main components: anode, cathode, an aqueous/non-aqueous electrolyte and a membrane that separates anode and cathode while being permeable to ions. Being one of the key parts of any new electr...

Effect of processing parameters on the electrochemical performance of graphene/ nickel ferrite (G-NF) nanocomposite

Fuel cells, secondary batteries and capacitors are among many promising energy storage devices. In particular, supercapacitors have attracted much attention because of their long life cycle and high power density. Graphene/nickel ferrite(G-NF) based supercapacitors were successfully fabricated through a one-step facile solvothermal route. Effects of synthesis conditions i.e. solvothermal time a...

Carbon Nanotube Supercapacitors

Supercapacitors (aka, electrochemical capacitors or ultracapacitors) are electrochemical energy storage devices that combine the high energy-storage-capability of conventional batteries with the high power-delivery-capability of conventional capacitors (Burke, 2000; Conway, 1999). Able to achieve higher power and longer cycle life than batteries, supercapacitors have been developed to provide p...

Synthesis of magnetic graphene-Fe3O4 nanocomposites by electrochemical exfoliation method

Superparamagnetic few-layer graphene nanocomposites (FLG- NCs) can be used for many technological applications, such as solar cells, batteries, touch panels and supercapacitors. In this work, we applied electrochemical exfoliation method as a simple, one step and economical technique to fabricate FLG- NCs. The fabricated Superparamagnetic FLG- NCs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ...
