Adv Mater. 2013 Oct 25;25(40):5799-806. doi: 10.1002/adma.201301794. Epub 2013 Aug 14.

Abstract

Dense networks of graphene nanosheets standing vertically on a current collector can work as numerous electrically conductive bridges to facilitate charge transport and mitigate the constriction/spreading resistance at the interface between the active material and the current collector. The vertically oriented graphene-bridged supercapacitors present excellent rate and power capabilities.

Keywords: contact resistances; power densities; rate capabilities; supercapacitors; vertically oriented graphene.
