The concept of thermally-chargeable supercapacitor was discussed and validated experimentally. As two double-layer supercapacitor-type devices were placed at different temperatures and connected, due to the thermal dependence of surface charge structures, the electrode potentials became different, and thermal energy c…

We investigated the importance of the specific effective surface area through a detailed study on the relationship between electrical conductivity of single-walled carbon nanohorns (SWCNHs) and accessibility of the electrolyte ions in the SWCNH-based supercapacitor. After heat treatment of the SWCNHs, the ratio of sp…

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are often characterized in terms of the hydrodynamic radius, Rh . The Rh of IDPs are known to depend on fractional proline content and net charge, where increased numbers of proline residues and increased net charge cause larger Rh . Though sequence and charge effects on the Rh…
