Abstract:Solar irradiation can be converted into electrical current via solar cell, which can be stored in a supercapacitor. The coupling of a solar cell and a supercapacitor, called photosupercapacitor, shows promising applications demanding multidisciplinary studies to understand its functionality and potential. Normally, supercapacitors are characterized with potentiostats or power sources that provide a constant current or voltage; however, we find that the photocurrent provided by a solar cell in a photosupercapac… Show more
Photo-rechargeable supercapacitors serve as a bridge between batteries and solar cells fordeveloping efficient energy storage devices. Unlike previous studies where either (a) a heterostructure of zinc oxide (ZnO) with other...
