Carbon Nanotube Fiber Based Stretchable Wire-Shaped Supercapacitors

A stretchable carbon nanotube (CNT) fiber based wire‐shaped supercapacitor is fabricated using a prestraining‐then‐buckling approach. At tensile strains from 0% to 100% or after 20 mechanical stretching‐releasing cycles with maximum strain of 100%, the electrochemical properties are not reduced but...

Description
Summary:A stretchable carbon nanotube (CNT) fiber based wire‐shaped supercapacitor is fabricated using a prestraining‐then‐buckling approach. At tensile strains from 0% to 100% or after 20 mechanical stretching‐releasing cycles with maximum strain of 100%, the electrochemical properties are not reduced but rather somewhat improved. This may have implications for the integration of wire‐shaped supercapacitors with wearable, miniaturized, and portable electronic devices.
