Asymmetric interdigitated micro-supercapacitors with high resolution, dedicated to energy storage in embedded micro-systems, are fabricated using a simple micro-fabrication process based on the inkjet printing and electrolytic deposition techniques. The process is optimized to realize a carbon nanotubes (cathode)/manganese oxide (anode) hybrid micro-device with a resolution of 100 μm. The cell capacitance reaches a value of 2.4 mF.cm−2. Moreover, the use of the asymmetric configuration allows extending the working voltage of the device from 1 V to 1.8 V in an aqueous solution.
