The disclosed technology generally relates to thin film-based energy storage devices, and more particularly to printed thin film-based energy storage devices. The thin film-based energy storage device includes a first current collector layer and a second current collector layer over an electrically insulating substrate and adjacently disposed in a lateral direction. The thin film-based energy storage device additionally includes a first electrode layer of a first type over the first current collector layer and a second electrode layer of a second type over the second current collector layer. A separator separates the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer. One or more of the first current collector layer, the first electrode layer, the separator, the second electrode layer and the second current collector layer are printed layers.

Thin film-based energy storage devices

An energy storage device includes a printed current collector layer, where the printed current collector layer includes nickel flakes and a current collector conductive carbon additive. The energy storage device includes a printed electrode layer printed over the current collector layer, where the printed electrode layer includes an ionic liquid and an electrode conductive carbon additive. The ionic liquid can include 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (CmimBF). The current collector conductive carbon can include graphene and the electrode conductive carbon additive can include graphite, graphene, and/or carbon nanotubes.

Printed energy storage device

A conductive ink may include a nickel component, a polycarboxylic acid component, and a polyol component, the polycarboxylic acid component and the polyol component being reactable to form a polyester component. The polyester component may be formed in situ in the conductive ink from a polyol component and a polycarboxylic acid component. The conductive ink may include a carbon component. The conductive ink may include an additive component. The conductive ink may include nickel flakes, graphene flakes, glutaric acid, and ethylene glycol. The conductive ink may be printed (e.g., screen printed) on a substrate and cured to form a conductive film. A conductive film may include a nickel component and a polyester component.
