Flexible Energy Storage Devices Using Nanomaterials
2010
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the flexible energy storage devices using nanomaterials. Energy storage systems are critical components, especially when the harvested renewable energy is to be stored in remote locations. Types of energy storage system include batteries, supercapacitors, and hydrogen storage. Traditional energy storage devices are not fully compatible with flexible electronics devices such as smart cards and electronic paper. Hence, advances in flexible energy storage devices are important to meet this demand. The research and development of new and innovative nanomaterials is progressing well to address the requirements of the flexible electronics industry. The flexible energy storage device is still in its infancy and hence there is still plenty of room available in the materials exploratory domain; for instance, making a flexible, mechanically robust device of metal nanowires/nanoparticles for the flexible electronics market.
