Gravimetric Ragone plot comparing energy and power characteristics of CNF electrodes based on the pristine and discharged electrode weight with that of LiCoO 2. This translates to an energy enhancement ~4 times greater than the state-of-the-art lithium intercalation compounds such as LiCoO 2 (~600 W h kg electrode -1 , the researchers said.
