High Energy Supercapacitors Transition Metal Oxide Nanoribbon Yarns for Wearable Electronics

     This Paper of the Day talks about fiber supercapacitors as an efficient energy storage solution for wearable electronics. In this paper, they studied the efficiency of transition metal oxide-based fiber supercapacitors for wearable electronics applications. These materials are known to exhibit high energy densities, high specific capacitances, and fast redox reactions. Owing to their synthesis difficulties by chemical deposition, the physical deposition of TMO nanoribbon yarns generated via delamination engineering of nanopatterned TMO/metal/TMO trilayer arrays are proposed as potential high-performance FSs. This study demonstrates the first comprehensive wearable electronic systems integration and also leads to new possibilities for customizing FSs to suit specific applications in wearable electronics and energy storage applications. Overall this study provides a pathway to smart textiles, wearable health monitoring devices, portable electronics and much more to better future technology.
