文摘Flexible electrochromic energy storage devices(FECESDs)for powering flexible electronics have attracted considerable attention.Silver nanowires(AgNWs)are one kind of the most promising flexible transparent electrodes(FTEs)materials for the emerging flexible devices.Currently,fabricating FECESD based on AgNWs FTEs is still hindered by their intrinsic poor electrochemical stability.To address this issue,a hybrid AgNWs/Co(OH)_(2)/PEDOT:PSS electrode is proposed.The PEDOT:PSS could not only improve the resistance against electrochemical corrosion of AgNWs,but also work as functional layer to realize the color-changing and energy storage properties.Moreover,the Co(OH)_(2)interlayer further improved the color-changing and energy storage performance.Based on the improvement,we assembled the symmetrical FECESDs.Under the same condition,the areal capacitance(0.8 mF cm^(−2))and coloration efficiency(269.80 cm^(2)C−1)of AgNWs/Co(OH)_(2)/PEDOT:PSS FECESDs were obviously higher than AgNWs/PEDOT:PSS FECESDs.Furthermore,the obtained FECESDs exhibited excellent stability against the mechanical deformation.The areal capacitance remained stable during 1000 times cyclic bending with a 25 mm curvature radius.These results demonstrated the broad application potential of the AgNWs/Co(OH)_(2)/PEDOT:PSS FECESD for the emerging portable and multifunctional electronics.

Flexible supercapacitors and batteries as promising energy storage devices have attracted tremendous attention. As the key component of both supercapacitors and batteries, electrode materials with excellent flexibility should be considered to match with highly flexible energy storage devices.

Considerable efforts have been devoted to the fabrication of flexible graphene-based electrodes through a variety of strategies. Moreover, different configurations of energy storage devices based on these active materials are designed. This review highlights flexible graphene-based two-dimensional film and one-dimensional fiber supercapacitors and various batteries including lithium-ion, lithium–sulfur and other batteries.

文摘Electric-heat coupling characteristics of a cogeneration system and the operating mode of fixing electricity with heat are the main reasons for wind abandonment during the heating season in the Three North area.To improve the wind-power absorption capacity and operating economy of the system,the structure of the system is improved by adding a heat storage device and an electric boiler.First,aiming at the minimum operating cost of the system,the optimal scheduling model of the cogeneration system,including a heat storage device and electric boiler,is constructed.Second,according to the characteristics of the problem,a cultural gene algorithm program is compiled to simulate the calculation example.Finally,through the system improvement,the comparison between the conditions before and after and the simulation solutions of similar algorithms prove the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.The simulation results show that adding the heat storage device and electric boiler to the scheduling optimization process not only improves the wind power consumption capacity of the cogeneration system but also reduces the operating cost of the system by significantly reducing the coal consumption of the unit and improving the economy of the system operation.The cultural gene algorithm framework has both the global evolution process of the population and the local search for the characteristics of the problem,which has a better optimization effect on the solution.

文摘Stretchable power sources,especially stretchable lithium-ion batteries(LIBs),have attracted increasing attention due to their enormous prospects for powering flexible/wearable electronics.Despite recent advances,it is still challenging to develop ultra-stretchable LIBs that can withstand large deformation.In particular,stretchable LIBs require an elastic electrolyte as a basic component,while the conductivity of most elastic electrolytes drops sharply during deformation,especially during large deformations.This is why highly stretchable LIBs have not yet been realized until now.As a proof of concept,a super-stretchable LIB with strain up to 1200%is created based on an intrinsically super-stretchable polymer electrolyte as the lithium-ion conductor.The super-stretchable conductive system is constructed by an effective diblock copolymerization strategy via photocuring of vinyl functionalized 2-ureido-4-pyrimidone(VFUpy),an acrylic monomer containing succinonitrile and a lithium salt,achieving high ionic conductivity(3.5×10^(-4)mS cm^(-1)at room temperature(RT))and large deformation(the strain can reach 4560%).The acrylic elastomer containing Li-ion conductive domains can strongly increase the compatibility between the neighboring elastic networks,resulting in high ionic conductivity under ultra-large deformation,while VFUpy increases elasticity modulus(over three times)and electrochemical stability(voltage window reaches 5.3 V)of the prepared polymer conductor.At a strain of up to 1200%,the resulting stretchable LIBs are still sufficient to power LEDs.This study sheds light on the design and development of high-performance intrinsically super-stretchable materials for the advancement of highly elastic energy storage devices for powering flexible/wearable electronics that can endure large deformation.

文摘The rapid growth of miniaturized electronics has led to an urgent demand for microscale energy storage devices(MESDs)to sustainably power the micro electronic devices.However,most MESDs reported to date have suffered from the limited energy densities and shape versatility compared to conventional large-scale counterparts because of the architectural constraints inherent in microfabrication-based cell manufacturing and cell dimension/structure.This review addresses the cell architecture design for MESDs that can achieve both miniaturization and high energy density.We provide a comprehensive overview of five types of cell architectures of MESDs and their fabrication techniques.In addition,to enable practical applications of MESDs,several cell design approaches are presented with the aim of minimizing the inactive parts of the cell and maximizing the performance metrics of MESDs.Finally,we discuss development direction and outlook of MESDs with a focus on materials chemistry,energy-dense electrochemical systems,and cell performance normalization,which will help to expand their applications and manufacturing scalability.

文摘The development of efficient and clean heating technologies is crucial for reducing carbon emissions in regions with severe cold regions.This research designs a novel two-stage phase change heat storage coupled solar-air source heat pump heating system structure that is specifically designed for such regions.The two-stage heat storage device in this heating system expands the storage temperature range of solar heat.The utilization of the two-stage heat storage device not onlymakes up for the instability of the solar heating system,but can also directlymeet the building heating temperature,and can reduce the influence of low-temperature outdoor environments in severe cold regions on the heating performance of the air source heat pump by using solar energy.Therefore,the two-stage phase change heat storage coupled to the solar energy-air source heat pump heating system effectively improves the utilization rate of solar energy.A numerical model of the system components and their integration was developed using TRNSYS software in this study,and various performance aspects of the system were simulated and analyzed.The simulation results demonstrated that the two-stage heat storage device can effectively store solar energy,enabling its hierarchical utilization.The low-temperature solar energy stored by the two-stage phase change heat storage device enhances the coefficient of performance of the air source heat pump by 11.1%in severe cold conditions.Using the Hooke-Jeeves optimization method,the annual cost and carbon emissions are taken as optimization objectives,with the optimized solar heat supply accounting for 52.5%.This study offers valuable insights into operational strategies and site selection for engineering applications,providing a solid theoretical foundation for the widespread implementation of this system in severe cold regions.
