Ultracapacitance
Ultracapacitance, also known as supercapacitance or electrochemical capacitance, refers to an electrical energy storage technology that bridges the gap between conventional capacitors and rechargeable batteries. Unlike batteries that store energy through chemical reactions, ultracapacitors store energy electrostatically in an electric double-layer formed at the interface between an electrode and an electrolyte. This mechanism allows for very rapid charging and discharging of energy, a characteristic not easily achieved by batteries.
The fundamental principle behind ultracapacitors involves ions from an electrolyte moving to the surface of a
Ultracapacitors offer several advantages, including exceptionally long cycle life (hundreds of thousands to millions of cycles),
