Programmable Nanocarbon‐Based Architectures for Flexible Supercapacitors

Supercapacitors (SCs), also called electrochemical capacitors, often show high power density, excellent charge/discharge rates, and long cycle life. The recent development of flexible and wearable electronic devices requires that their power sources be sufficiently compact and flexible to match these electronic components. Therefore, flexible SCs have attracted much attention to power current advanced electronics that can be flexible and wearable. In the past several years, many different strategies have been developed to programmably construct different nanocarbon materials into bendable electrode architectures. Furthermore, flexible SC devices with simplified configurations have also been designed based on these nanocarbon‐based architectures. Here, recent developments in the programmable assembly of bendable architectures based on nanocarbon materials are presented. Additionally, the design of flexible nanocarbon‐based SC devices with various configurations is highlighted. The progress made recently paves the way for further development of nanocarbon architectures and corresponding flexible SC devices. Future development and prospects in this area are also analyzed.
