An asymmetric anthraquinone-modified carbon/ruthenium oxide supercapacitor

a b s t r a c t An asymmetric supercapacitor with improved energy and power density, relative to a symmetric Ru oxide device, has been constructed with anthraquinone-modified carbon fabric (Spectracarb 2225) as the negative electrode and Ru oxide as the positive electrode. The performance of the supercapacitorwas characterized by cyclic voltammetry and constant current discharging. Use of th…
