The Capacitors of Electronic Circuits Function Something Like Batteries
Jan 20, 2014
"Supercapacitors" take the energy-storing abilities of capacitors (which store electrical charge that can be quickly dumped to power devices) a step further, storing a far greater charge in a much smaller package. In AIP Advances, ...
