Characteristics of high energy density hybrid capacitor using metal oxide electrode
The electrochemical performances of an asymmetric hybrid capacitor were investigated using LiFePO4 as the positive electrode and active carbon fibers(ACF) as the negative electrode. The electrochemical behaviors of a nonaqueous hybrid capacitor were characterized by constant current charge/discharge test. The specific capacitance using LiFePO4/ACF electrode turned out to be 0.87F/cm2 and the unit cell showed excellent cycling performance. This hybrid capacitor was able to deliver a specific energy as high as 178 Wh/kg at a specific power of 1,068 W/kg.
