AbstractMicro-supercapacitors are promising miniaturized energy storage devices that have attracted considerable research interest. However, their widespread use is limited by inefficient microfabrication technologies and their low energy density. Here, a flexible, designable micro-supercapacitor can be fabricated by a single pulse laser photonic-reduction stamping. A thousand spatially shaped laser pulses can be generated in one second, and over 30,000 micro-supercapacitors are produced within 10 minutes. The micro-supercapacitor and narrow gaps were dozens of microns and 500 nm, respectively. With the unique three-dimensional structure of laser-induced graphene based electrode, a single micro-supercapacitor exhibits an ultra-high energy density (0.23 Wh cm−3), an ultra-small time constant (0.01 ms), outstanding specific capacitance (128 mF cm−2 and 426.7 F cm−3) and a long-term cyclability. The unique technique is desirable for a broad range of applications, which surmounts current limitations of high-throughput fabrication and low energy density of micro-supercapacitors.

Transportation efficiency can be measured in terms of the energy needed to move a person or a tonne of freight over a given distance. For passengers, journey time is important, so an equally useful measure is the product of the energy used and the time taken for the journey. Transportation requires storage of energy. Rechargeable systems such as batteries have very low energy densities as compared to fossil fuels. The highest energy densities come from nuclear fuels, although, because of shielding requirements, these are not practical for most forms of transportation. Liquid hydrocarbons represent a nice compromise between high energy density and ease of use.

In this paper, a facile method is designed to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) graphene (GR)/manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanowall electrode material. The 3D GR/MnO2 hybrid is prepared by a combination of electrochemical deposition (ELD) and electrophoresis deposition (EPD), followed by thermal reduction (TR). Firstly, the 3D graphene oxide (GO)/MnO2 hybrid is obtained by the ELD–EPD method. Secondly, the 3D GR/MnO2 hybrid is obtained through hydrogen reduction at a certain temperature. The as-fabricated hybrid has been characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and Raman spectroscopy. The electrochemical properties have been also measured by cyclic voltammetry. The results showed that the 3D GR/MnO2 nanowalls hybrid has a high specific capacitance of 266.75[Formula: see text]Fg[Formula: see text] and a high energy density of 25.36[Formula: see text]Whkg[Formula: see text]. Moreover, a high specific capacitance (240.15[Formula: see text]Fg[Formula: see text]) at a high scan rate of 200[Formula: see text]mVs[Formula: see text] (90% capacity retention) has been also obtained. Additionally, the hybrid can serve directly as the electrodes of supercapacitor without adding binder. This work provides a novel road to fabricate a binder-free 3D GR-based hybrid for high-performance energy storage devices.
