Herein, we report a flexible high-conductivity transparent electrode (denoted as S-PH1000), based on conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), and itsapplication to flexible semi-transparentsupercapacitors. A high conductivity of 2673 S/cm was achieved for the S-PH1000 electrode on flexible plastic substrates via a H2SO4 treatment with an optimized concentration of 80 wt.%. This is among the top electrical conductivities of PEDOT:PSS films processed on flexible substrates. As for the electrochemical properties,a high specific capacitance of 161F/g was obtained from the S-PH1000 electrode at a current density of 1 A/g. Excitingly, a specific capacitance of 121 F/g was retained even when the current density increased to 100 A/g, which demonstrates the high-rate property of this electrode. Flexible semi-transparent supercapacitors based on these electrodes demonstrate high transparency, over 60%, at 550 nm. A high power density value, over 19,200 W/kg,and energy density, over 3.40 Wh/kg, was achieved. The semi-transparent flexible supercapacitor was successfully applied topower a light-emitting diode.

Polypyrrole with hierarchical dendritic structures assembled with cauliflower-like structure of nanospheres, was synthesized by chemical oxidation polymerization. The structure of polyryrrole was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and scanning electron microscopy. The electrochemical performance was performed on CHI660 electrochemical workstation. The results show that oxalic acid has a significant effect on morphology of PPy products. The hierarchical dendritic PPyOA(3) electrodes possess a large specific capacitance as high as 744 F/g at a current density of 0.2 A/g and could achieve a higher specific capacitance of 362 F/g even at a current density of 5.0 A/g. Moreover, the dendritic PPy products produce a large surface area on the electrode through the formation of the channel structure with their assembled cauliflower-like morphology, which facilitates the charge/electron transfer relative to the spherical PPy electrode. The spherical dendritic PPyOA(3) electrode has 58% retention of initial specific capacitance after 260 cycles. The as-prepared dendritic polypyrrole with high performance is a promsing electrode material for supercapacitor.

Nanostructured MnOx/Ni (OH)2 composites have been electrodeposited on Ni foam for synthesis of a binder-free electrode for electrochemical capacitors with high specific capacitance and stable electrochemical properties. The microstructure, morphology and chemical composition were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge/discharge measurements were applied to investigate the electrochemical capacitance of the electrode active materials. The results indicated that MnOx acted as a template for growth of Ni (OH)2 with an inter-connected 3D porous network nanostructure. A maximum capacitance value of 2334 F/g at current density of 5 A/g in 1 M KOH electrolyte was achieved, much higher than that of pure Ni (OH)2 and MnOx (992 and 179 F/g, respectively). Moreover, in the charge/discharge process at even larger current density of 20 A/g, the electrode could maintain 82.8 % of the initial specific capacitance after 500 cycles, higher than that of pure Ni (OH)2 (only 46.6% remains). The enhanced capacitance performance was attributed to the synergic effect between the respective single oxides.

Graphene Nanosheet

A homogeneous Ni (OH)2/graphene nanosheet (GNS) nanocomposite with excellent supercapacitive performance has been synthesized by a facile chemical precipitation. The Ni (OH)2/GNS nanocomposite presented an ideal morphology with the nanosized Ni (OH)2 particles homogeneously growing on the GNS. Its microstructure, morphology were investigated by XRD, SEM and TEM. The electrochemical performance of the Ni (OH)2/GNS nanocomposite was test by cyclic voltammetry, galvanostatic charge−discharge and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. The homogeneous Ni (OH)2/GNS nanocomposite exhibited a high specific capacitance of 1667 F/g at a current density of 1A/g and maintained a good stability in 5000 cycles, suggesting that it can be a promising candidate for supercapacitor. The high specific capacitance and remarkable rate capability are promising for applications in supercapacitors with both high energy and power densities. The Ni (OH)2/GNS nanocomposite exhibited large specific capacitance, high rate capability and good cycling stability.

ABSTRACTGravure contact printing is the highest volume, large area printing technique known. It is ideally suited for the fabrication of large-area polymer light emitting diode (PLED) based lighting, backlights and displays. Here we show how gravure can be used to fabricate the poly (3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) : poly(styrene sulfonate) hole injection layer and the light emitting polymer emissive layer in a conventional PLED, as well as the cesium carbonate electron injection layer in an inverted PLED. The performance equals or exceeds that of devices where these layers are deposited by conventional spin-coating.

Excellent cycling stability along with a high specific capacitance of the electrode material is the primary requirement for supercapacitor (SC) in recent years. Exceptionally simple and cost-effective solution process is employed for the first time to prepare [Formula: see text]-MnO2/rGO composites, in which KMnO4 content varies from (2[Formula: see text]mg, 4[Formula: see text]mg, 6[Formula: see text]mg and 8[Formula: see text]mg). The morphological analysis showed that [Formula: see text]-MnO2/rGO composites possess nanorod like morphology and were fully covered with rGO sheet. Among all composites, the sample with 6[Formula: see text]mg content of KMnO4 denoted as [Formula: see text]-MnO2/rGO composite (S–3) showed excellent supercapacitive performance with a specific capacitance of 720[Formula: see text]F/g at a current density of 4 A g[Formula: see text] with excellent cycling stability of 93% after 2000 cycles. Furthermore, these nanocomposites showed excellent supercapacitive properties with specific capacitances of 720–498 F/g at the current density of 4 A g[Formula: see text] with cycling stabilities of 71%, 68% and 60%, respectively.
