The carbonization of PAN by direct laser writing for on-chip microsupercapacitors is demonstrated. The process allows for converting PAN films into carbon electrodes and creating freestanding carbon electrodes by removing non-carbonized material.
The carbonization of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) by direct laser writing to produce microsupercapacitors directly on-chip is reported. The process is demonstrated by producing interdigitated carbon finger electrodes directly on a printed circuit board (PCB), which is then employed to characterize the supercapacitor electrodes. By varying the laser power, the process can be tuned from carbonization to material ablation. This allows to not only convert pristine PAN films into carbon electrodes, but also to pattern and cut away non-carbonized material to produce completely freestanding carbon electrodes. While the carbon electrodes adhere well to the printed circuit board, non-carbonized PAN is peeled off the substrate. Specific capacities as high as 260 mu F cm(-2) are achieved in a supercapacitor with 16 fingers.
