Abstract
An energy storage device is provided which includes a supercapacitor first electrode, a supercapacitor second electrode, a first electrolyte, a metal electrode, and a separator. The supercapacitor first electrode, the supercapacitor second electrode, and the first electrolyte together form a supercapacitor. The metal electrode and the supercapacitor second electrode form an Ohmic contact. The separator is sandwiched between the metal electrode and the supercapacitor first electrode and configured to absorb moisture in a surrounding environment.
