Wearable solid-state capacitors based on two-dimensional material all-textile heterostructures.Ggraphene inks can be used to store and release charges in textiles.

For emerging wearable tech to advance, it needs improved power sources. Now researchers from Michigan State University have provided a potential solution via crumpled carbon nanotube forests, or CNT forests. For more information see the IDTechEx re

According to the Japan Economic News, Yamagata University announced that it has developed an ultra-thin, soft and curved lithium-ion battery with a thickness of less than 1 mm. It is reported that the ultra-thin flexible lithium-ion battery developed uses a solidified gel-like electrolyte. The product is very thin, less than 1 mm thick, and can be folded for use.
