ABSTRACT:
Capacitors are fundamental electrical circuit elements that store electrical energy and perform a vital function to charge or discharge electrically. The present day needs of a global village cannot be satisfied by the conventional capacitors as their utility is limited to certain applications. The evolution of third generation capacitors named ultra-capacitor or electric double layer capacitor, where the electrical charge is stored at a metal/electrolyte interface to construct a storage device. This assembly can store electrical charge in the order of mega farads which is unbelievable and extraordinarily high. The renaissance of these capacitors is occurring at a phenomenally high rate as they offer excellent performances for a potential use as power source in space flight technology, HEVs (Hybrid Electric Vehicles), power electronics
