4. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
“Gratitude is a feeling which is more eloquent than words, more silent than silence.” It
is one of the most difficult tasks in life to choose the appropriate words to express one’s
gratitude towards the beneficiaries. At the outset, we thank God Almightily for giving us this
opportunity for successful completion of our seminar. We immensely and whole-heartedly
thank our parents who have always showed their blessings and constant encouragement.
If words are considered as the symbol of approval and token of acknowledgement,
then let the following words play the heralding role of expressing our gratitude. We wish to
acknowledge our sincere gratitude to Dr.K.M Mathew, Principal, JPM arts and Science
College, Labbakkada, for all his efforts and administration in educating us in his premier
institution. We extend our gratitude to Ms.Sheela S, Head of the Department of Computer
Applications, who is a constant source of inspiration and whose advice helped us to complete
this project successfully. We express our deep sense of gratitude to our internal guide,
Mr. Sobin Mathew, for his profound guidance for the successful completion of this seminar.
Finally we express our deep appreciation to all our friends and family members for the moral
support and encouragement they have given to complete this project successfully.

5. ABSTRACT
A paper battery is a flexible, ultra-thin energy storage and production device formed
combining carbon nanotubes with a conventional sheet of cellulose-based paper. A paper
battery acts as both a high-energy battery and super capacitor, combining two components
that are separate in traditional electronics. The combination allows the battery to provide both
long-term, steady power production and bursts of energy. Non-toxic, flexible paper batteries
have the potential to power the next generation of electronics, medical devices and hybrid
vehicles, allowing for radical new designs and medical technologies.
Paper batteries may be folded, cut or otherwise shaped for different applications
without any loss of integrity or efficiency. Cutting one in half halves its energy production.
Stacking them multiplies power output. Early prototypes of the device are able to produce 2.5
volts of electricity from a sample the size of a postage stamp. The devices are formed by
combining cellulose with an infusion of aligned carbon nanotubes that are each
approximately one millionth of a centimeter thick. The carbon is what gives the batteries their
black color.
