Abstract

The growth of flexible and wearable electronics drives progress in printed, flexible micro-supercapacitors for energy storage. This study fabricates flexible and foldable micro-supercapacitors using a nanocomposite of Ni-based Metal-Organic Framework (Ni-MOF) and copper selenide (CuSe). The conductive ink, blending Ni-MOF and CuSe, ensures thorough mixing for screen-printing. The resulting devices exhibit impressive electrochemical performance, with the NC-5 FAS device showing high areal capacitance, promising energy density and (3.65 mWhcm−2 and power density (73.8 mWcm−2). Integration into a 3D enclosure configuration enhances performance, with improved capacitance, energy density (47.08 mWhcm−2) and power density and outstanding power density (985.8 mWcm−2), maintaining capacitance retention of the 93.9 % and with highly robust mechanical durability during flexibility tests. This study highlights tailored nanocomposite's potential to revolutionize flexible and foldable energy storage, advancing high-performance, portable electronics.
