OverviewHistoryBackgroundDesignStylesTypesMaterialsElectrical parameters
In the early 1950s, General Electric engineers began experimenting with porous carbon electrodes in the design of capacitors, from the design of fuel cells and rechargeable batteries. Activated charcoal is an electrical conductor that is an extremely porous "spongy" form of carbon with a high specific surface area. In 1957 H. Becker developed a "Low voltage electrolytic capacitor with porous carbon electrodes". He believed tha

Supercapacitors are based on a carbon technology. The carbon technology used in these capacitors creates a very large surface area with an extremely small separation distance.

Instead of using a conventional dielectric, supercapacitors use two mechanisms to store electrical energy: double-layer capacitance and pseudocapacitance.
