Abstract: With the rapid development of wearable electronic devices, various kinds of flexible energy storage devices have emerged. Flexible supercapacitor has aroused extensive interests of researchers thanks to its high stability, small size and excellent electrochemical performance. It is of great significance to develop an electrode with simple process, favorable electrochemical performance and satisfactory flexibility for the preparation of flexible supercapacitors with superior performance. Material selection, electrode preparation and device miniaturization will be the main research direction in the future. This article mainly reviews the classification of electrode materials, the specific preparation methods and the primary configuration of the devices, and discusses the main development direction and research focus of electrode materials and devices for flexible supercapacitors.
