Claim:
1. A method of fabricating an energy storage device, the method comprising: producing a nanomaterial comprising nanostructures; generating defects, using an electrophilic or nucleophilic additive, in the nanomaterial for increasing charge storage capability of the nanomaterial, further comprising: depositing the nanomaterial on a first conductive surface of a first electrode; depositing the nanomaterial on a second conductive surface of a second electrode; providing a first spacer positioned in close proximity of the first electrode, the first spacer comprising an electron-insulating material; providing a second spacer positioned in close proximity of the second electrode, the second spacer comprising the electron-insulating material; and providing a separator positioned between the first spacer and the second spacer, the separator comprising a porous membrane.
