Novel energy inside a microcircuit chip: VTT developed an efficient nanomaterial-based integrated energy storage

Posted on by Haptic

VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland developed an extremely efficient small-size energy storage, a micro-supercapacitor, which can be integrated directly inside a silicon microcircuit chip. The high energy and power density of the miniaturized energy storage relies on the new hybrid nanomaterial developed recently at VTT. This technology opens new possibilities for integrated mobile devices Read more about Novel energy inside a microcircuit chip: VTT developed an efficient nanomaterial-based integrated energy storage[…]
