Additional information
Supercapacitors are low energy density storage devices. Their main advantage is that they can deliver the energy very fast, within few seconds. There have been constant efforts to increase the energy density of such devices. One possibility is to bring in some redox active species at the carbon electrode surface. Although this is now highly established, we were among the first researchers to prove it. We produced low-cost biomass-derived porous nitrogen doped carbons with unprecedented performance in supercapacitors. The work was highlighted in Asia Materials and the subject of many invited talks e.g. 'Int. Conf. Mater Energ' in Karlsruhe 2011.
