Abstract
Today, electrochemical capacitors (ECs) have the potential to emerge as a promising energy storage technology. The weakness of EC systems is certainly the limited energy density, which restricts applications to power delivery over only few seconds. As a consequence, many research efforts are focused on designing new materials to improve energy and power densities.
