Title:
ENERGY STORAGE METHOD AND SYSTEM USING DEFECT-ENGINEERED NANOSTRUCTURES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/061534
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An energy storage device includes a first electrode and a second electrode comprising nanostructures. The nanostructures comprise defects that increase charge storage capabilities of the energy storage device. A method of fabricating an energy storage device includes producing a nanomaterial comprising nanostructures and generating defects in the nanomaterial using an electrophilic or nucleophilic additive for increasing charge storage capability of the nanomaterial.
