Maximizing the electrochemical performance of 3D micro-supercapacitors based on pseudocapacitive films is crucial for powering the next generation of miniaturized IoT devices. The films have to be nanostructured, must conform the 3D template, and have uniform deposition. To study the growth mechanism of nanostructured MnO 2 films obtained by a...

The development of an efficient photocatalyst capable of producing enough hydrogen for applications in everyday life under direct sunlight exposure is still challenging. In this work, a new concept for a three-dimensional microstructured photocatalyst is proposed, in which a standard deep-reactive ion etching process allows for the...

Microsupercapacitor electrodes with 3D architectures have drawn increasing interest in recent years due to their better energetic performances while maintaining a reduced footprint occupancy. Here, we report two different strategies to realize highly porous scaffolds of RuO2 on Si wafers, with areal enlargement factors exceeding 13000 cm 2 /cm...

The enhanced areal energy of three-dimensional (3D) micro-supercapacitors has made these miniaturized energy-storage components increasingly important at the dawn of the Internet of Things. Although ultrahigh-capacitances have been obtained with Ru-based pseudocapacitive materials, their substitution with abundant non-noble transition metals is...
