Abstract
An energy storage device includes a first electrode and a second electrode comprising nanostructures. The nanostructures comprise defects that increase charge storage capabilities of the energy storage device. A method of fabricating an energy storage device includes producing a nanomaterial comprising nanostructures and generating defects in the nanomaterial using an electrophilic or nucleophilic additive for increasing charge storage capability of the nanomaterial.
