Stretchable, transparent and imperceptible supercapacitors based on Au@MnO2 nanomesh electrodes†
Abstract
A highly transparent and stretchable electrode based on a Au nanomesh, electrodeposited with a thin layer of MnO2 with a transparency of 84.7% is introduced. The as-prepared transparent, stretchable, and imperceptible supercapacitor (TSPS) exhibits a specific capacitance of 0.53 mF cm−2 and excellent bending stability, together with high stretchability (up to 160% strain).
