Hybrid energy storage devices

Along with our two most popular research lines on batteries and supercapacitors, we are developing a third line which proposes the combination of faradaic (battery) and capacitive (supercapacitors) materials in the same electrode leading to hybrid electrode materials providing hybrid storage mechanisms.

These hybrid devices could be fittingly called SupercapBatteries
