Abstract: Lithium-ion capacitor (LIC) is a new energy storage device that combines the advantages of lithium-ion battery and supercapacitor. Internal resistance under direct current (DC Resistance or DCR) is one of the most important electrochemical parameters for evaluating the performance of supercapacitors. However, there is no standard method for measuring and evaluating the internal resistance of LIC. This study tested and compared LIC devices using three different testing procedures and calculation methods for DCR. Comparison of internal resistance using initial voltage drop at 100ms to that of other methods indicates that this method provides consistent results and the value of resistance may be close to the true stead-state resistance.

Key words: lithuium-ion capacitors, resistant, charging and discharging test procedure, calculation methods, cut-off voltage
