Flexible printed electronics and photonics technologies are in demand because they are cost-effective and quickly reconfigurable. Zinc-silver battery can help towards development of body conformal wearable electronics. The study evaluate planar sec-ondary Ag2O-Zn battery fabricated using the inkjet printing technology. Polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) is used as polymer substrate and carbon nanotubes material is used as current collectors. The demonstrated battery achieves an capacity of 4 mAh with active electrode area of 14 cm2 and thickness of 0.2 mm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
