Abstract:
Asymmetric micro-supercapacitors (MSCs) exhibit higher energy density while face significant challenges in power density as well as cycling life and large dimensions. The key factors contributing to these dilemmas include the match of electrode materials and electrolytes, poor uniformity of device, and complicated while low-precise fabrication processes. Herein we develop a laser scribing-engraving (LSE) strategy to fabricate MSCs with monolithic high-voltage output and scalable array integration. Utilizing this strategy, we induce the conversion of the majority of Ti3C2Tx-MXene into TiO2 and graphene oxide into laser-scribed graphene (LSG), yielding asymmetric MSCs with laser-induced MXene/graphene oxide as the negative electrode and MXene/graphene oxide as the positive electrode. A single asymmetric micro-supercapacitor exhibits a high voltage window of 1.8 V, delivering an outstanding energy density (240 mWh cm-3) and power density (9503 mW cm-3), coupled with excellent cycling stability. Moreover, the LSE strategy enables monolithically integrated 64 devices to achieve a high-voltage output of 115.2 V. Our approach showcases the potential for integrating micro-energy storage devices into various microsystems, increasing the practicality of asymmetric micro-supercapacitors.
