An electrochemical cell includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and an electrolyte solution. The positive electrode and/or the negative electrode includes a penetrating portion that penetrates the electrodes in the thickness direction. Further, an electrochemical capacitor includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and an electrolyte solution. In a plane of projection in which a region carrying a negative electrode active material of the negative electrode is projected onto a region carrying a positive electrode active material of the positive electrode along a opposed direction, the ratio of an area carrying the positive electrode active material to an area carrying the negative electrode active material is less than 1.

Electrochemical cell and electrochemical capacitor

Disclosed is an electrochemical capacitor comprising a positive electrode exhibiting an irreversible capacity for extending the potential range during a charge/discharge cycle, a negative electrode composed of a material which is capable of reversibly adsorbing/desorbing lithium ions, and an electrolyte solution composed of an organic solvent containing lithium ions.
