At the molecular level, the COF/SWCNT interface can be efficiently controlled. Thus, the TpPa-COF-SWCNTs nano-hybrid wire, which combines the excellent conductivity of SWCNTs and the high porosity and good redox activity of TpPa-COFs, was employed as active electrode materials for supercapacitors. The strategy reported in this work can give guidance for the design of other similar COF-based electrodes, and hold a great potential in energy storages展开更多

A self-integrated Rogowski coil and a voltage divider were used for the measurements of current and voltage at the wire load, respectively. The deposited energy before breakdown was calculated based on experimental waveforms of current and voltage by mathematical method. Effects of the applied voltage, circuit inductance and sion and energy deposition were analyzed by means parameters of Al wire on the electrical exploof experiments and calculation. The results show that the current rise rate has an important influence on explosion process, such as the energy deposition before breakdown, the electrical power as well as the various explosion stages. A higher current rise rate can be achieved by increasing applied voltage and decreasing circuit inductance. The inhomogeneity of the energy deposition will result in prematured breakdown as well as lowered energy deposition, making the explosion process of wire more complicated.展开更多
