Abstract

Dual carbon lithium-ion capacitors (LICs) are the next-generation hybrid energy storage devices that aim towards energy-power balanced applications. Thus, tuning the properties of the carbon electrode materials is a crucial step toward optimizing the device's performance. Herein, the effect of change in the microstructure of the carbon electrodes on the ion storage capacity and their consequent energy-power manifestation is investigated. The optimized carbonaceous anode calcined at 700 ⁰C delivers 290 mAh g−1 capacity after 1000 cycles at 1 A g−1. This superiority in performance is attributed to the formation of micron-size channels and mesopores for better ion transport and storage. In contrast, the activated carbon cathode delivers a capacitance of 118 F g−1 and retains 76% at the end of 5000 cycles. The LIC full cell with these electrode materials provides maximum energy of 120 Wh kg−1, a maximum power density of 20.7 kW kg−1 and cycles till 9000 cycles with ∼67% capacitance retention. The mechanistic control over the deliverable ion storage capacity is also analyzed for the LIC full cell. Furthermore, the lighting demonstration, self-discharge studies, leakage current, and electrochemical impedance are recorded to elucidate the practical feasibility and performance degradation mechanism of the coin-cell device.
