Supercap electrode: Researchers from the Indian S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences (SNBNCBS) have developed a novel supercapacitor electrode based on a hybrid nanostructure made from a hybrid nickel oxide-iron oxide exterior shell and a conductive iron-nickel core. The electrode is said to retain nearly 95 percent of capacity after 3,000 charge cycles.
