The advances in micro-size and in-plane supercapacitors lead to produce the miniaturizing energy storage devices in portable and bendable electronics. Micro-supercapacitors have unique electrochemical performance, such as high power density, fast charging, long cycle life, and high safety. The reduction time and cost in the fabrication processes of micro-supercapacitors are important factors in micro-fabrication technology. In this work, a simple, scalable and cost-effective fabrication of interdigitated reduced graphene oxide@polyaniline flexible micro-supercapacitors is presented. We found that in fabricating the interdigitated microelectrode patterns on PET substrate; the reduction of graphene oxide and growth of conducting polymer are rapidly performed simultaneously in one step by laser irradiation. The capacitance was 72 mF/cm2 at 0.035mA/cm2 current density. These high capacitance micro-supercapacitors demonstrate good stability and more than 93.5% of the capacitance retain after 1000 cycles at 0.7 mA/cm2 current density.
