Researchers at Drexel University's College of Engineering in Philadelphia have developed a battery electrode design that could work as quickly as a supercapacitor, but also store much more energy, according to an article in the journal Nature Energy. The team developed a thin film using the highly conductive material MXene for the electrode design. " The electrodes are made from carbon nanotubes and graphene, which is very conductive, so they can be used with current densities up to 100 times higher than those found today," said lead author Dr.
