A small amount of commercial pen ink was added to effectively reduce the agglomeration of theGO sheets during solvent evaporation and the following reduction processes in which the presence of graphite carbon nanoparticles served as nano-spacer to separate GO sheets. The printed device fabricated using the hybrid ink,combined with the binder-free microelectrodes and interdigital microelectrode configuration, exhibits nearly 780%enhancement in areal capacitance compared with that of pure GO ink. It also shows excellent flexibility and cycling stability with nearly 100% retention of the areal capacitance after 10,000 cycles. The all-solid-state device can be optionally connected in series or in parallel to meet the voltage and capacity requirements for a given application.This work demonstrates a promising future of the carbonbased hybrid ink for directly large-scale inkjet printing MSCs for disposable energy storage devices.展开更多

Here we report the fabrication of solid-state yet flexible SCs by inkjetprinting a hybrid ink consisting of carbon quantum dots(CQDs) and graphene oxide(GO) platelets, followed by casting of polyvinyl alcohol(PVA)/sulfuric acid(H2SO4) gel electrolyte. The SC obtained from 100-time-printing of the hybrid ink shows a specific capacitance of ~1.0 mF cm-2 at a scan rate of 100 mV s-1, which is enhanced by nearly 150%;the whole device including paper substrate, gel electrolyte and active material demonstrates an energy density of 0.078 mW h cm-3 at a power density of 0.28 mW cm-3. In addition, the excellent mechanical strength of GO platelets ensures the good flexibility and mechanical robustness of the printed SCs, which show a retention of 98% in capacitance after being bended for 1,000 cycles at a bending radius of 7.6 mm. This study demonstrates a promising strategy for the large-scale preparation of low-cost, lightweight, and flexible/wearable energy storage devices based on carbon-based ink and paper substrate.展开更多
