Ionogels — or ionic liquid gels — are a versatile class of materials that are used in energy storage and soft actuators. In this project, I integrated a UV-curable ionogel electrolyte with various carbon paper electrodes. The purpose of the project was to study the electrolyte/electrode interface in order to understand the best electrode architecture that should be paired with the ionogel electrolyte in a supercapacitor device.
