Abstract
- Constructing microsupercapacitors (MSCs) with an outstanding stretchability is urgent for wearable electronics, and an intrinsic biodegradability is also meaningful. Herein, laser‐induced graphene/NiO/Co3O4 (NiO/Co3O4/LIG) is in situ synthesized on a polyimide (PI) film during laser processing, then the electrodes are transferred to a biodegradable waterborne polyurethane (WPU) substrate to fabricate stretchable MSCs. Experimentally, the as‐prepared stretchable MSCs exhibit an excellent areal capacitance of 2.4 mF cm−2, high capacitance retention of 77.1% at 50% strain, and capacitance degradation of less than 19.8% after 1000 stretching cycles. These desirable properties are mainly attributed to the gradient structure of NiO/Co3O4/LIG, the synergistic effect of hybrid NiO/Co3O4 nanoparticles, and the intensive interface adhesion between the electrodes and WPU. Interestingly, the robust function of stretchable MSCs is further presented by using them to power a microsensor and assembling them with triboelectric nanogenerators to generate power from mechanical contact with skin, which makes the stretchable MSCs promising as a sustainable driving source for wearable electronics.
