Problems solved by technology

Although these conventional microfabrication methods have been successfully used in the fabrication of microdevices, their process flows are not easily integrated into specific flexible and wearable substrates, and most of them are only applicable to fabricate interdigitated electrodes with specific materials, The interdigital structure has a low aspect ratio; some manufacturing processes require expensive facilities, expensive chemicals, and clean rooms, which have high requirements on the environment, and the manufacturing process is complex, inefficient, and produces a lot of material waste and pollution gas
These existing technologies or solutions have deficiencies and limitations in terms of miniature, flexible, high-efficiency, low-cost, and batch manufacturing, which seriously affect and restrict the wider commercial application of interdigitated micro-flexible supercapacitors, and urgently need to be developed Novel fabrication methods and strategies for efficient, low-cost, and scalable fabrication of conductive polymer-based interdigitated micro-flexible supercapacitors

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible miniature supercapacitor and a manufacturing method thereof. The manufacturing method comprises the following steps of: manufacturing a flexible substrate on a substrate; printing a female die by adopting an electric field driven spray deposition micro-nano 3D printing technology; depositing an electrode material on the female die through an electrochemical polymerization process; uniformly coating a solid electrolyte on the electrode material; and sealing, and preparing the flexible miniature supercapacitor. Low-cost batch manufacturing of the conductive polymer flexible micro supercapacitor is realized by combining the electric field driven spray deposition micro-nano 3D printing technology and the electrochemical polymerization technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The application belongs to the field of 3D printing and energy, and in particular relates to a flexible micro-supercapacitor and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the rapid development of miniaturized, portable, and highly integrated flexible electronics, there is an increasing demand for miniature flexible power sources and energy storage units. It is widely used in many fields such as portable wireless communication systems, micro-electromechanical systems, biological wireless sensors, multi-functional micro / nano systems, micro-robots, and wearable / implantable medical devices. Microbatteries are the main choice for fabricating miniature power systems, however their disadvantages of low power density and short cycle life greatly limit their wide application in microelectronic devices, especially in implantable electronic medical devices. Therefore, new, miniaturized, and highly efficient energy storage devices are urgen...
