Separators, high performance electrochemical devices, such as, batteries and capacitors, including the aforementioned separators, systems and methods for fabricating the same. In one implementation, a separator is provided. The separator comprises a polymer substrate (), capable of conducting ions, having a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface. The separator further comprises a first ceramic-containing layer (), capable of conducting ions, formed on the first surface. The first ceramic-containing layer () has a thickness in arrange from about 1,000 nanometers to about 5000 nanometers. The separator further comprises a second ceramic-containing layer (), capable of conducting ions, formed on the second surface. The second ceramic-containing layer () is a binder-free ceramic-containing layer and has a thickness in arrange from about 1 nanometer to about 1,000 nanometers.
