Are NC HZO superlattice films suitable for 3D Si capacitors?

Ultimately, the ferroic-engineered NC HZO superlattice films integrated into 3D Si capacitors demonstrate record energy storage (80 mJ cm −2) and power density (300 kW cm −2), to our knowledge, across all dielectric electrostatic capacitors.

Do nanostructured storage devices increase capacitance density?

Nanostructured storage devices with 3D metal–insulator–metal (MIM) architectures—which require conformal metal and insulator deposition inside porous nanostructures—have successfully increased capacitance density, and therefore energy storage, per unit planar area (Fig. 3b, Supplementary Table 3).

Are electrostatic microcapacitors the future of electrochemical energy storage?

Moreover, state-of-the-art miniaturized electrochemical energy storage systems—microsupercapacitors and microbatteries—currently face safety, packaging, materials and microfabrication challenges preventing on-chip technological readiness2,3,6, leaving an opportunity for electrostatic microcapacitors.

Why do we need dielectric electrostatic capacitors?

Dielectric electrostatic capacitors 1, because of their ultrafast charge–discharge, are desirable for high-power energy storage applications. Along with ultrafast operation, on-chip integration can enable miniaturized energy storage devices for emerging autonomous microelectronics and microsystems 2, 3, 4, 5.

Do dielectric electrostatic capacitors have a high energy storage density?

Dielectric electrostatic capacitors have emerged as ultrafast charge–discharge sources that have ultrahigh power densities relative to their electrochemical counterparts 1. However, electrostatic capacitors lag behind in energy storage density (ESD) compared with electrochemical models 1, 20.

Can electrostatic capacitors amplify energy storage per unit planar area?

However, electrostatic capacitors lag behind in energy storage density (ESD) compared with electrochemical models 1, 20. To close this gap, dielectrics could amplify their energy storage per unit planar area if packed into scaled three-dimensional (3D) structures 2, 5.
