Unravelling the deterministic effect of the solid-state diffusion energy barrier for charge carrier on the self-discharge of supercapacitors

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Xiaohui Yan, Yue He, Xuncheng Liu, Siqi Jing, Jiajian Guan | Summary: The further development of fast electrochemical devices is hindered by self-discharge. Current strategies for suppressing self-discharge are mainly focused on the extrinsic and general mechanisms including faradaic reactions, charge redistribution, and ohmic leakage. However, the […]
