Electrolyte-Free Charge Injection Tuning of Carbon Nanotube Sheets – Offering Novel Supercapacitor Technology

This invention utilizes bulk material property modification via hole or electron injection into conducting and porous materials including but not limited to carbon nanotubes. Bulk carbon nanotube (CNT) assemblies (sheets, rods, etc) can be charged electrochemically in an electrolyte bath. After the CNT sheet is charged (positively or negatively) in...
