Advanced 2D based hybrid supercapacitor devices
The project is focused on research and development of advanced 2D-TMD, carbon-based materials and electrode architectures for supercapacitor applications. The aim is to increase the energy density, lifetime, and power performance of supercapacitors as sustainable energy storage alternatives to batteries for key digital electronic and e-mobility applications. Within the project, carbon based materials (2D g-C3N4, biochar), 2D-TMD pseudocapacitive materials (e.g. MoS2), battery type materials (e.g. NiS2, Ni(OH)2) and their composites, binder-free nanostructures/heterostructures will be investigated as perspectives negative and positive electrodes for advanced hybrid supercapacitor devices. Supercapacitors with improved performance will improve sustainability and user value of electronics systems and will trigger new applications and new business opportunities in key digital technologies and mobility in Slovak and European areas.
