Researchers at Michigan Technological University have developed a technique to grow aligned nanoforests of manganese dioxide nanorods with an optimal crystal structure (?-MnO Wh/kg) and excellent cyclability (more than 92% capacitance retention over 2000 cycles). The new materials may enable higher-performance redox capacitors.
