Abstract:
Particles of active electrode material are made by blending mixing a mixture of activated carbon and binder. In selected implementations, sulfur level in the activated carbon is relatively low and the binder is inert. For example, sulfur content of the activated carbon and the resultant mixture is below 300 ppm and in other implementations, below 50 ppm. The electrode material may be attached to a current collector to obtain an electrode for use in various electrical devices, including a double layer capacitor. The electrode decreases current leakage of the capacitor.
Abstract:
An electrical-energy-storage-unit (EESU) has as a basis material a high- permittivity composition-modified barium titanate ceramic powder. This powder is single coated with aluminum oxide and then immersed in a matrix of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) plastic for use in screen-printing systems. The ink that is used to process the powders via screen-printing is based on a nitrocellulose resin that provide a binder burnout, sintering, and hot isostatic pressing temperatures that are allowed by the PET plastic. These lower temperatures that are in the range of 40 °C to 150 °C also allows aluminum powder to be used for the electrode material. The components of the EESU are manufactured with the use of conventional ceramic and plastic fabrication techniques which include screen printing alternating multilayers of aluminum electrodes (12) and high-permittivity composition-modified barium titanate powders sintering to a closed-pore porous body (11), followed by hot-isostatic pressing to a void-free body. The 31,351 components arc configured into a multilayer array with the use of a solder-bump technique as the enabling technology so as to provide a parallel configuration of components that has the capability to store at least 52.22 kW*h of electrical energy. The total weight of an EESU with this amount of electrical energy storage is 281.56 pounds including the box, connectors, and associated hardware.

Abstract:
Structure and method for fabrication (figure 2) of an improved capacitor are disclosed. In one embodiment, the disclosed capacitor includes a metal column (60) comprising a number of interconnect metal segments (5) and a number of via metal segments (72) stacked on one another. The metal column constitutes one electrode (24) of the capacitor (50). Another electrode of the capacitor is a metal wall (56) surrounding the metal column. In one embodiment, the metal wall is fabricated from a number of interconnect metal structures (70) and a number of via metal structures stacked on one another. In one embodiment, the metal wall is shaped as a hexagon. In this embodiment, tight packing arrangement is achieved by packing individual hexagonal capacitors "wall to wall" so as to achieve a cluster of individual hexagonal capacitors. The cluster of individual capacitors acts as a single composite capacitor. In one embodiment, the interconnect metal and via metal are both made of copper. In another embodiment, the interconnect metal is made of copper while the via metal is made of tungsten.
Abstract:
In this application a description is given of a thin-film capacitor comprising an electrically insulating substrate which is provided with at least two inner electrodes which are separated from each other by means of the dielectric layer. The capacitor also includes two end contacts which each electroconductively contact one of the inner electrodes. In accordance with the invention, the electroconductive contact takes place via a through-connection which communicates exclusively with the main surface of the inner electrode. By virtue of this measure, it is achieved that the contact resistance between the end contacts and the inner electrodes is relatively low and reproducible. As a result, also the value of the ESR of the thin-film capacitor is low, so that the capacitor can very suitably be used for high-frequency applications.
