A meta-solid-state battery includes a first layer disposed on a first current collector, a second layer disposed on a second current collector, and third layer disposed between the first layer and the second layer. The first layer and the second layer are the cathode and anode electrodes. The third layer includes a first meta-solid-state electrolyte material. Each of the cathode and anode electrodes contain: an active material in an amount ranging from approximately 70% to 99.98% by weight, a carbon additive in an amount ranging from approximately 0.010% to 20% by weight, and a second meta-solid-state electrolyte material in an amount ranging from approximately 0.010% to 10% by weight. The first and second meta-solid-state electrolyte material include a gel polymer.

A thermal interface material provides thermal conduction or thermal dissipation across an interface, using a three-dimensional interconnected porous graphene (3D-IPG) foam structure. The 3D-IPG foam structure is constructed of three-dimensional interconnected graphene sheets formed as a plurality of monolayers, and having an flexible interconnection architecture. The flexible interconnection architectures allow the 3D-IPG to maintain a high interfacial thermal conductance by the 3D-IPG filling a gap between a heat source and a heat sink across the interface, and by capping small features up to nanoscale roughened surfaces.
