Energy storage structures and fabrication methods are provided. The method include: providing first and second conductive sheet portions separated by a permeable separator sheet, and defining, at least in part, outer walls of the energy storage structure, the first and second surface regions of the first and second conductive sheet portions including first and second electrodes facing first and second (opposite) surfaces of the permeable separator sheet; forming an electrolyte receiving chamber, defined, at least in part, by the first and second surface regions, including: bonding the first and second conductive sheet portions, and the permeable separator sheet together with at least one bonding border forming a bordering frame around at least a portion of the first and second electrodes; and providing an electrolyte within the electrolyte receiving chamber, including in contact with the first and second electrodes, with the electrolyte being capable of passing through the permeable separator sheet.

Energy storage structures and fabrication methods thereof

Ultra-capacitor structures and electronic systems and assemblies are provided. In one aspect, the ultra-capacitor structure is configured to selectively power and at least partially house electronic component(s) therein. In one embodiment, the ultra-capacitor structure includes a thermally conductive material facilitating dissipation of heat generated. In another embodiment, the ultra-capacitor structure includes an electrically conductive sheet facilitating electromagnetic shielding. In another aspect, an electronic system includes: an electronic device including electronic component(s); and a support structure physically receiving and electrically coupling to the electronic device, and including an ultra-capacitor structure configured to selectively power the electronic component(s) of the electronic device when electrically coupled to the support structure. In another aspect, an electronic assembly has a first region including electronic component(s), and a second region including an ultra-capacitor structure configured to selectively power the electronic component(s) of the electronic assembly, where the first region is spaced apart from the second region.
