     Flexible, ultra-thin energy storage and
    production device
     Formed by combining carbon nanotubes with
    a conventional sheet of cellulose-based paper
     A paper battery acts as both a high-energy
    battery and supercapacitor
     This combination allows the battery to
    provide both long-term, steady power
    production and bursts of energy
     Can be folded, cut or otherwise shaped for
    different applications without any loss of
    efficiency
     Cutting one in half , halves its energy
    production
     Can be stacked in multiples of power output
     2.5 volts of electricity from a sample the size
    of a postage stamp.
     Combining cellulose with an infusion of
    aligned carbon nanotubes that are each
    approximately one millionth of a centimeter
    thick
     These tiny filaments act like the electrodes
    found in a traditional battery, conducting
    electricity when the paper comes into contact
    with an ionic liquid solution.
     With no water in solution, cannot freeze and
    hence operating temp -75 to 100 Degree
    celsius
     Carbon nanotubes (CNTs; also known as buckytubes)
    are allotropes of carbon with a cylindrical nanostructure.
     They exhibit extraordinary strength and
    unique electrical properties, and are efficient thermal
    conductors.
     Nanotubes are members of the fullerene structural family, the
    diameter of a nanotube is on the order of a few nanometers
     Because of the symmetry and unique electronic structure of
    graphene, the structure of a nanotube strongly affects its
    electrical properties. For a given (n,m) nanotube, if n = m, the
    nanotube is metallic; if n − m is a multiple of 3, then the
    nanotube is semiconducting with a very small band gap,
    otherwise the nanotube is a moderate semiconductor.
     Growing the nanotubes on a silicon substrate and then
    impregnating the gaps in the matrix with cellulose
     Once the matrix has dried, the material can be peeled
    off of the substrate, exposing one end of the carbon
    nanotubes to act as an electrode
     When two sheets are combined, with the cellulose sides
    facing inwards, a supercapacitor is formed that can be
    activated by the addition of the ionic liquid
     This liquid acts as an electrolyte and may include salt-laden
    solutions like human blood, sweat or urine.
     While a conventional battery contains a number of
    separate components, the paper battery integrates
    all of the battery components in a single structure,
    making it more energy efficient.
     INTEGRATED DEVICES – No warm up time, power
    loss, component malfunction; Loss of energy while
    transferring power from one component to
    another, less energy lost in an integrated device
    1.Batteries produce electrons through a chemical reaction between electrolyte and metal in
    the traditional battery.

    2. Chemical reaction in the paper battery is between electrolyte and carbon nanotubes.

    3. Electrons collect on the negative terminal of the battery and flow along a connected wire
    to the positive terminal

    4. Electrons must flow from the negative to the positive terminal for the chemical reaction
    to continue.
     The sheets can be rolled, twisted, folded, or
    cut into numerous shapes with no loss of
    integrity or efficiency, or stacked like printer
    paper to boost total output.
     The components are molecularly attached to
    each other: the carbon nanotube print is
    embedded in the paper, and the electrolyte is
    soaked into the paper
     The paper-like quality of the battery
    combined with the structure of the nanotubes
    embedded within - light weight and low cost
     Ability to use electrolytes in blood make them
    potentially useful for medical devices such as
    pacemakers
     The medical uses are particularly attractive
    because they do not contain any toxic
    materials and can be biodegradable
