A Study of Gamma-Irradiation's Impact on the Super capacitive Performance of Copper Oxide Thin Films: Understanding the Impact of Gamma-Irradiation on Copper Oxide Thin Films for Supercapacitors

Abstract

The most recent innovation in energy storage technology is the supercapacitor, which offers anumber of advantages including power performance, stability, and the use of materials that are lessexpensive. Supercapacitors may be employed in space technology due to their small weight and suitabilityfor power applications, in addition to these advantages. Any electronic device's properties may be changedby exposure to radiation when it is used in a space satellite or in radiation atmospheres. Supercapacitorshave recently been tested using batteries in tiny spacecraft that orbit the earth. CuO thin films that havebeen chemically produced are affected by gamma-irradiation at dosages of 50, 100, and 150 kGy on theirstructural, morphological, and supercapacitive characteristics. Researchers will have a better grasp ofthe changes, evolution, and device manufacturing of metal oxide-based supercapacitors to be employedin gamma-radiation environments thanks to the outcomes of this research.
