Abstract
We have demonstrated a direct laser writing (DLW) process that uses a femtosecond laser to fabricate a nano-micro hierarchical structure for a large capacitance microsupercapacitor (MSC) electrode. By applying a two-photon polymerization-based DLW technique, a photoresist (PR) nano-pillar pattern was fabricated on a pre-defined PR interdigitated electrode (PR-IDE) pattern to form a nano-micro hierarchical structure. Carbon pyrolysis converted a PR-IDE with a nano-micro hierarchical structure to a PR derived carbon (PRC)-IDE while maintaining the aspect ratio of the pillar structure. The electrochemical performance of the PRC-MSC is improved by introducing the nano-pillar pattern to the PRC-IDE, resulting in larger areal capacitance of the as-fabricated PRC-IDE compared to the PRC-IDE with a micropattern only. The PRC-IDE with a nano-micro hierarchical structure in this study could be further applied as a backbone electrode structure for a high power pseudo-capacitor.
