- Lithium-ion capacitors combine features of Electric Double Layer Capacitors (EDLC) and Lithium-ion secondary batteries.
- They use a positive electrode from EDLC and a negative electrode from a Lithium-ion battery for improved performance.
- They offer higher energy density than general capacitors and better safety than typical Lithium-ion batteries.
- Capacitors excel at rapid charging/discharging with high power density and long life, despite lower energy density.
- Lithium-ion capacitors are manufactured similarly to Lithium-ion batteries and come in laminated or can types.
