March 15, 2017

Briefing
  • Long Lasting – University of Central Florida researchers created supercapacitor battery that can last more than 30,000 recharging cycles without degrading, compared to less than 1,500 times for standard lithium-ion batteries
  • Fast Charging – Battery, which incorporates two-dimensional materials, can potentially charge mobile phones for few seconds and last one week
  • Energy Dense – Can store large amount of energy at the size of fingernail
  • Potential Applications – Include longer-lasting, more durable batteries for mobile phones, electronic gadgets, wearables, and electric vehicles
