Abstract :
A high capacitance battery cell that offers a capacitive storage system along with electrochemical power generation was fabricated. The purpose of this unit is to provide an electrochemical capacitor and power generation cell structure that enables efficient energy storage and delivery within a compact volume. The cell allows for easy integration (in terms of "form, fit and function") into arbitrarily designed sensor "motes" to meet energy storage specifications for low-power ad hoc distributed networks.
