Abstract
The present invention provides a method for making an electrode. Firstly, a conducting substrate is provided. Secondly, a plurality of nano-sized structures is formed on the conducting substrate by a nano-imprinting method. Thirdly, a coating is formed on the nano-sized structures. The nano-sized structures are configured for increasing specific surface area of the electrode.
Claims19
A method for making an electrode, comprising:
- providing a conducting substrate;
- forming a plurality of concave-shaped nano-sized structures on the conducting substrate by applying an imprinting mold directly on a major surface of the conducting substrate;
- and
- forming a coating directly on both the nano-sized structures and portions of the major surface of the conducting substrate between the nano-sized structures;
- the nano-sized structures being configured for increasing specific surface area of the electrode.
