Investigations into femtosecond laser hybrid manufacturing for 3D power sources by Tham, Nicholas Cheng Yang

“…LPG MSCs demonstrate high capacitive performance, with 0.428 mF cm-2 at scan rates of 10 mV s-1, and even an increase in scan rates to 10,000 mV s-1 only reduces performance by two-thirds, falling in line with reported PG MSCs. LPG humidity sensors are found to repeatably detect humidity across a range of 4.2% to 7.64% for up to three cycles, with a maximum deviation of σ = 0.64. …”
