This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is focused on developing an efficient and cost-effective electrochemical capacitor for use in Next-Generation Vehicles (NGV's). This new capacitor will be designed to significantly advance the state of the art in this area, and to fully meet the specifications identified for NGV applications. No current technology meets those specifications. The key innovation here is the development of new electrode materials based on recently identified composites. The Phase I program will demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach by preparing candidate electrode materials, fabricating laboratory-scale capacitors, and demonstrating that the prototype capacitors already meet or have the clear potential to meet the target specifications. The capacitors will be evaluated in terms of: (1) specific capacitance (farads/g); (2) specific energy (Whr/kg); (3) equivalent series resistance; (4) specific power (W/kg); (5) energy density (Whr/L); (6) leakage current; (7) cycle lifetime; (8) ease of manufacturing; and (9) cost. Successful development of this enabling technology will represent an important advance in the state of the art and will provide a key innovation for the commercial development of next-generation vehicles. Other important potential commercial applications include consumer electronics, communications, and computer technology.

该小型企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目的重点是开发一种用于下一代汽车（NGV）的高效且具有成本效益的电化学电容器。 这种新型电容器的设计将大大提高该领域的技术水平，并完全满足NGV应用的规格要求。 目前没有任何技术能够满足这些要求。 这里的关键创新是基于最近确定的复合材料开发新的电极材料。 第一阶段计划将通过准备候选电极材料，制造实验室规模的电容器，并证明原型电容器已经满足或具有满足目标规格的明确潜力来证明所提出方法的可行性。 将根据以下方面对电容器进行评价：（1）比电容（法拉/g）;（2）比能量（Whr/kg）;（3）等效串联电阻;（4）比功率（W/kg）;（5）能量密度（Whr/L）;（6）漏电流;（7）循环寿命;（8）易于制造;以及（9）成本。 这项技术的成功开发将代表着最先进技术的重要进步，并将为下一代汽车的商业开发提供关键创新。 其他重要的潜在商业应用包括消费电子、通信和计算机技术。
