Description
Summary:The rapid growth of flexible electronic devices greatly stimulates the demand for planer and microscale energy storage devices. Flexible and planer microsupercapacitors (MSCs) with their interdigitated electrode architecture serve as a promising platform for energy and power sources for flexible microelectronics. This study reports the fabrication of in-plane interdigitated structure-based MSC device utilizing TiO 2 nanofibers (NFs) as an active material via binder-free, cost-effective, and environmental-friendly electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique. The fabricated MSC device delivers an excellent areal capacitance ( {C} _{A} ) of 9.4 mF/cm 2 at 10 mV/s scan rate. Furthermore, the flexible MSC device shows 80% capacitance retention after 10 000 successive GCD cycles and 73% retention after 2000 bending cycles. Moreover, the maximum areal energy density and areal power density obtained for the device are 0.64~\mu Wh/cm 2 and 307.2~\mu \text{W} /cm 2 , respectively.
