TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - INORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Components: The solid-state ionomer electrolyte is layered double hydroxides, ion-conducting glass and/or conductive ceramics. The lithium ion conducting material is of formula ((Li,M1a)TiO3) (i) or (LiM2aO4) (ii). The dielectric materials comprise lithium conducting beta -alumina. The protonated dielectric comprises doped perovskites, undoped perovskites, doped tungsten bronzes, undoped tungsten bronzes, doped pyrochlores, undoped pyrochlores, layered perovskites, or oxides that have permittivities of 50 or more.M1a = La, Ce, Pr and/or Nd; andM2a = transition metal comprising Co, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Cr and/or V.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - INSTRUMENTATION AND TESTING - Preferred Components: The device is a capacitor comprising a dielectric material for generating an IBBL effect and metal electrodes that employ metals consisting of copper, aluminum, gold, silver, nickel, cobalt, iron, chromium, platinum, palladium and/or its alloys. The metal electrode is electrochemically active with an ionic species in the dielectric material to enable generation of pseudocapacitance.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Components: The ionomeric electrolyte is tetrafluoroethylene-perfluoro-3,6-dioxa-4-methyl-7-octenesulfonic acid copolymer, poly(ethylene)-comethacrylic acid, polyethylene oxide and/or polyvinylidene fluoride. SPECIFIC COMPOUNDS - 5 Compounds (II) are specifically claimed i.e. protonated dielectric compound of formula (Ba(Sc(0.1)(Ti(0.85)Zr(0.15))(0.9))O3) (IIa), (Ba(Sc(0.1)Ti(0.9))O3), (Ca(Sc(0.1)(Ti(0.85)Zr(0.15))(0.9))O3), (Pb(Sc(0.1)(Ti(0.85)Zr(0.15))(0.9))O3) and (Ba(Zr(0.8)Y(0.2))O3).    EXAMPLE - Barium carbonate (197.3 g), titanium dioxide (71.88 g) and scandium oxide (6.896 g) were ball milled with yttria-stabilized-zirconia balls in ethanol for 24 hours to form slurry. The slurry was dried at 80 degrees C for 24 hours to produce a dried powder. The dried powder was calcined at 1050 degrees C for 10 hours, at 1150 degrees C for 10 hours, at 1250 degrees C for 10 hours, at 1400 degrees C for 10 hours, and then at 1500 degrees C for 10 hours to form barium-scandium-titanium-oxide compound of formula (Ba(Sc(0.1)Ti(0.9))O(2.95)(Vo)(0.05)) (AA) (where Vo is oxygen site vacancy). AA was ball-milled in ethanol for 24 hours with yttria-stabilized zirconia balls to form slurry of milled powder. The milled powder was dried at 80 degrees C and then uniaxially pressed at 15000 pound force per square inch (PSI) to produce a preform. The preform was isostatically compressed at 30000 PSI. The resulting preform was sintered at 1550 degrees C for 10 hours to produce sintered (A).
