High-Speed Annealing of Hydrous Ruthenium Oxide Nanoparticles by Intensely Pulsed White Light for Supercapacitors

초록

We propose and demonstrate an extremely efficient annealing for the RuO2 center dot xH(2)O nanoparticles incorporated in a supercapacitor employing intensely pulsed white light (IPWL). The IPWL process ensures the significant advantage of a room-temperature and millisecond-scaled process under ambient conditions. Resultant nanomorphology and crystallinity of RuO2 center dot xH(2)O electrodes are analyzed for process optimization. Electrochemical characteristics of the IPWL-treated electrodes were investigated by cycle voltammetry, resulting in a specific capacitance of 439 F/g at 10 mV/s with the irradiated IPWL energy of 2.04 J/cm(2) in 23 msec.
