We proposed the stereolithographic technique to fabricate the metallic composite lattices with octet-truss arrangement by using electroless plating and engineering the 3D hierarchically porous graphene onto the scaffolds to build the hierarchically cellular lattices in quasi-solid supercapacitor application. The supercapacitor device that is composed of composite lattices span several pore size orders from nm to mm holds promising behavior on the areal capacitance (57.75&nbsp;mF&nbsp;cm<sup>−2</sup>), rate capability (70% retention, 2–40&nbsp;mA&nbsp;cm<sup>−2</sup>), and long lifespan (96% after 5000 cycles), as well as superior energy density of 0.008&nbsp;mWh&nbsp;cm<sup>−2</sup>, which are comparable to the state-of-the-art carbon-based supercapacitor. By synergistically combining this facile stereolithographic 3D printing technology with the hierarchically porous graphene architecture, we provide a novel route of manufacturing energy storage device as well as new insight into building other high-performance functional electronics.</p> <p>Highlights:</p> <p>1 Stereolithographic 3D printing was introduced to fabricate polymeric lattices.<br>2 Electroless plating was employed to make the lattices conductive and mechanically robust.<br>3 Hydrogen bubbles were served as template for engineering the hierarchically porous graphene.<br>4 The supercapacitor device holds great promise in the rational coupling of energy and power density.</p>}, journal={Nano-Micro Letters}, author={Xue, Jianzhe and Gao, Libo and Hu, Xinkang and Cao, Ke and Zhou, Wenzhao and Wang, Weidong and Lu, Yang}, year={2019}, month={Jun.}, pages={46} }
