Nanotubes + ink + paper = instant battery January 26, 2010
Posted by Kuba in : Education , trackback
Dip an ordinary piece of paper into ink infused with carbon nanotubes and silver nanowires, and it turns into a battery or supercapacitor. Crumple the piece of paper, and it still works. Stanford researcher Yi Cui sees many uses for this new way of storing electricity.

the intro video is awesome. how did they do this? lots of frames stitched together maybe?
I think Is there a prize for spelling the same word correctly twice in a row?
Hang on, I’m trying to wrap my head around that one. A bucket that *holds* water… But there *is* no water…
I think I had it there for a moment. Ooh, my head hurts.
Yes, all of us will die. We all know how incredibly dangerous paper is. What if terrorists get hold of such awesomely destructive paper? None of us would be safe. The world is in danger of imminent destruction. This madman must be stopped.
Ignorant, reactionary brain-bag.
I think How long this alpha based prototype battery last?
Where could I obtain the nanotube infused ink to conduct experiment myself?
Thanks
I think Could this be used like a solar panel?
is this rechargeable?
How about using this product as a building material?
eg, resin-impregnated to make sheets/tube…walls/panels, bike frames etc.
Moldable, presumably?
I think its just a piece of paper, what harm can it do?
Anyone can get the peace prize for anything. look at the recent one, a piece prize for nothing. they are like candy.
I think This is great!
However, it doesnt make energy, it only stores it.
Imagine having buckets that hold water, but no water.
very flamable stuff, if the battery overheats and sets its self on fire were all screwed.
That is true, we’re supposed to be aiming for a so called “greener future”, but at this rate the earth will only turn itself into a desert.
I think This is a sign that we should start recycling so we get more energy. ;P
I think bin total ungezogen heute wer will mit mir camn der kann sich ja melden
Electronic asbestos was my thoughts, They are so light and small they will be launched into the air when incinerated. How long would it take for nano dust to build up in TV/PC’s sets and short the chips etc?
Imagine how much electricity you can conduct in a roll of toilet paper
I think Why would this deserve a peace prize? I hope that you know that there are different Nobel prizes…
The world has never been a good place nor a bad place. It has always been.
I think this is AWESOME!!
nice job when you need something you eather look to china or stanford
(in this case it is both) haha
I think love his accent
Posting in a historic video! :3
