Less Is More: Can Low Quantum Capacitance Boost Capacitive Energy Storage?

[Image: see text] We present a theoretical analysis of charge storage in electrochemical capacitors with electrodes based on carbon nanotubes. Using exact analytical solutions supported by Monte Carlo simulations, we show how the limitations of the electron density of states in such low-dimensional...

description [Image: see text] We present a theoretical analysis of charge storage in electrochemical capacitors with electrodes based on carbon nanotubes. Using exact analytical solutions supported by Monte Carlo simulations, we show how the limitations of the electron density of states in such low-dimensional electrode materials may help boost the energy stored at increased voltages. While these counterintuitive predictions await experimental verification, they suggest exciting opportunities for enhancing energy storage by rational engineering of the electronic properties of low-dimensional electrodes.
