Abstract Scope |
The creation of a small, yet flexible and mechanically strong energy storage device has been an incredibly difficult task. This project uses laser reduced Graphene Oxide (GO) to create electrodes for improved capacitance for sensing applications. These flexible Graphene Oxide supercapacitors can be used as wearable devices, such as masks to detect harmful particulates. GO sheets, roughly 50 μm thick, are stable and flexible, offering excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. The research aims to optimize GO sensors by reducing their size while maintaining or improving capacitance and flexibility. This includes prototyping various laser patterns and polymer enhancements to improve conductivity without compromising flexibility. Additionally, a versatile testing station will be developed for different sheet sizes and substrates. The ultimate goal is to achieve an optimized laser pattern with strong, stable capacitance and a versatile testing station. [136] |
