Breakthrough: Researchers create superior batteries than Li-ion.

The manufacturing method is a significant factor for the new technologies to determine whether the product will be commercially produced or not and would be impactful.

Today, researchers have developed many new methods that can work in production, like supercapacitors!


Supercapacitors contain two electrical plates (conductor) separated by a layer (insulated). They are capable of storing plenty of energy.


Supercapacitors can charge more rapidly. They have a more efficient distribution of energy and have a greater lifespan without any loss in performance. (Performance depends upon the charging and discharging cycle).


When any supercapacitor and a battery get combined in any electronics, the battery life extends several times. It can multiply up the battery life to 4 times for commercial EVs. And for personal or industrial electronics, there would be plenty of benefits for the consumer.


Hence, it would be convenient for people to use supercapacitors because of their ability to charge quickly. Today, electric cars need to change batteries frequently (similar to our smartphones). But, using supercapacitors in place would be great for the environment. They are much more sustainable than batteries and have an extended lifespan. Thus, do not require to be recycled in mass numbers.


But, the size of supercapacitors is too big for its application on small electronics. Their size should be almost the same as a battery (combined). It is the main reason for not using supercapacitors in smartphones or EVs.


Therefore, today many researchers are working on creating small-sized supercapacitors or micro-supercapacitors. These are very small in size and can fit on any circuit of smartphones and other electronics.
