Abstract
High-voltage electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) capable of efficient AC line-filtering have been developed. They were fabricated with vertically-oriented graphene nanosheet (VOGN) electrodes using a planar design. Two approaches were examined to series connect EDLC cells and thus achieve high-voltage operation. Electrical performance of VOGN electric double layer capacitors fabricated with an ionic liquid electrolyte was measured at temperatures up to 125°C. Volume comparisons are made between VOGN electric double layer capacitors and aluminum electrolytic capacitors. A practical design is presented that provides the VOGN electric double layer capacitor with more than an order-of-magnitude higher ripple-current filtering performance (120-Hz) than available from present capacitor technology.
