A stencil printed, high energy density silver oxide battery using a novel photopolymerizable poly(acrylic acid) separator.

A novel photopolymerized poly(acrylic acid) separator is demonstrated in a printed, high-energy-density silver oxide battery. The printed battery demonstrates a high capacity of 5.4 mA h cm(-2) at a discharge current density of 2.75 mA cm(-2) (C/2 rate) while delivering good mechanical flexibility and robustness.

Resistance switching characteristics of solid electrolyte chalcogenide Ag(2)Se nanoparticles for flexible nonvolatile memory applications.

Solution-processed mechanically flexible resistive random access memories are fabricated using Ag(2)Se nanoparticles; the fabricated Ag/Ag(2)Se/Au memory devices on flexible poly-ethylene-naphthalate substrates show bipolar switching memory characteristics, with low voltage (<1.5 V) operation, no significant retention loss after 10(5) s, and no degradation in endurance after 10(4) switching cycles, with stable operation even under a mechanical strain of 0.38%.
