Abstract

Highly stretchable microsupercapacitors with stable electrochemical performance are fabricated. Their excellent stretchable and electrochemical performance relies on the suspended wavy structures of graphene microribbons. This avoids the detachment and cracks of the electrode materials. In addition, it ensures the electrode fingers keep a relatively constant distance so the stability of the microsupercapacitors can be enhanced.
