Printable Hybrid Micro-Supercapacitor Based on 2-D Inks using Graphene, TMDs and M-Xenes

Project description

Energy storage with printable 2D-hybrid micro-supercapacitors

The rise of portable and wearable electronics demands energy storage solutions that are lightweight, flexible, and efficient. Traditional batteries are bulky, rigid, and raise environmental concerns. At the same time, scalable and cost-effective fabrication methods remain a challenge for next-generation energy devices. Addressing these issues requires novel materials and advanced manufacturing techniques. Supported by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the PHyS-2D-GraM project is developing printable, flexible micro-supercapacitors using hybrid 2D materials such as graphene, MXenes, and transition metal dichalcogenides. These materials offer high electrical conductivity, environmental friendliness, and cost-effective large-scale production. The project aims to fabricate micro-supercapacitors with high energy and power densities, paving the way for smart garments and next-generation electronics.

Objective

Recent tremendous advances in portable and wearable electronics demand lean, lightweight, and flexible future energy storage devices. Printable Hybrid Micro-Supercapacitor Based on 2-D Inks using Graphene, TMDs and M-Xenes, PHyS-2D-GraM is mainly focused on printable flexible and portable energy storage devices based on Two-dimensional (2D) materials and their nanocomposites. The attraction of PHyS-2D-GraM relies on the excellent electrical conductivity, large-scale and low-cost production capability as well as environmental benignity properties of the hybrid 2D materials that will facilitate me to achieve micro supercapacitors with high power and energy densities which will be a great success of the action for the replacement of batteries used in smart garments. The main objective is to demonstrate and fabricate flexible-printable micro-supercapacitors from hybrid 2D nanocomposites designs of vertically stacked current collectors, electrodes, and electrolytes aimed at higher Specific energy (>10 Wh kg-1) by controlled multiple pass printing with porous microstructure in interface layers. The growth of the energy storage market will be mainly driven by the demand for smart, connected, energy-efficient, flexible devices along with the advantage of significantly low-cost methods of manufacture involved in printed devices. To highlight, research studies are very limited in realizing hybrid MXene-TMD-Graphene inks for flexible micro-supercapacitor which has kindled significant interest and foundation for the PHyS-2D-GraM. All the key components of micro supercapacitors, namely, electrodes, electrolytes, and current collectors, can be fabricated by Inkjet Printing through proper formulation and deposition of 2D hybrid inks. The broad range of experimental skills and the successful collaborations that I established with other world leading groups put me in an excellent position to deliver this timely, high impact research in the action.
