Graphene based electrodes for supercapacitors and batteries. High surface area, robustness, durability, and electron conduction properties. Future and challenges of using graphene nanocomposites for energy storage devices. With the nanomaterial advancements, graphene based electrodes have been developed and used for energy storage applications.
Based on this, this review will discuss the novel synthesis of graphene for interdisciplinary applications of energy storage and conversion, which is a promising direction in the research for novel applications in photoelectrochemical cells, photo-assisted batteries, piezoelectric nanogenerators, photothermal and photomechanical devices, etc.
Currently, applications of graphene focus mainly on the storage and conversion of electric and light energy to provide alternative energy sources to replace fossil fuels [5, 6] with typical representatives being supercapacitors and lithium batteries [7, 8, 9, 10], as well as photocatalysis applications to provide eco-friendly devices [11, 12].
Due to its high specific surface area, good chemical stability and outstanding electrical properties, graphene, a class of two-dimensional allotrope of carbon-based materials, is one of ideal candidates for next generation energy conversion and storage devices.
Graphene has unique properties, including high specific surface area (2630 m 2 /g) , good chemical stability and excellent electrical conductivity. These properties make graphene to be an excellent candidate for energy conversion and storage applications.
Effective integration of graphene-based energy generation and storage widgets into electronic devices used in daily life as reliable and independent power sources would significantly attract the attention of the public and in turn attract more resources toward further improvement in the economic viability of the technology.
