The combination of the photochemical reaction-based polymer matrix, weak-binding lithium salt with ionic liquid, and ion dissociating solvator is employed to construct the nano-canyon structured IGPE with high ionic conductivity (sigma(DC) = 1.2 mS cm(-1) at 25 degrees C), high dielectric constant (epsilon(s) = 131), and even high mechanical robustness (bending deformation for 10 000 cycles with superior conductivity retention [approximate to 91%]). This gives rise to ASSS with high compatibility and stability, which is compliant with foldable electronics. Consequently, this ASSS delivers remarkable electrochemical performance (specific capacitance of approximate to 105 F g(-1) at 0.22 A g(-1), maximum energy density and power density of 23 and 17.2 kW kg(-1)), long lifetime (approximate to 93% retention after 30 days), wider operating temperature (approximate to 0-120 degrees C), and mechanical stabilities with no significant capacitance reduction after mechanical bending and multiple folding, confirming the superior electrochemical durability under serious deformation states. Therefore, this ultra-flexible and environmentally stable ASSS based on the IGPE having the nano-canyon morphology can be a novel approach for powering up the ultra-deformable and durable next-generation wearable energy storage devices.
