Supercapacitors are promising candidates due to their high power density. Therefore, flexible supercapacitors are desired. Here, the porous activated carbon felts(ACFs) with exfoliated graphene nanosheets and rich oxygen-containing groups were fabricated by a facile thermal treatment strategy.Such ACFs can act as the flexible electrodes of all-solid-state supercapacitors directly without the use of binder and conductive materials. They exhibit excellent electrochemical properties, such as high specific areal capacitance, superior rate ability and long-term cycling stability. Moreover, the fabricated flexible all-solid-state supercapacitors based on ACFs deliver stable electrochemical performance under different bending states.展开更多
