18-year-old girl invents super capacitor and wins Intel Young Scientist Award

While we were watching CB brush the neck, there were some incredibly smart kids out there already working on changing the world. Take 18-year-old Eesha Khare, for example. She won a $50,000 prize for inventing a super capacitor that could one day power your phone and charge in just seconds. Alongside her, 17-year-old Henry Lin and 19-year-old Ionut Budisteanu also made waves at the 2013 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, which awarded a total of $4 million to top innovators.

Henry Lin developed a model that simulates thousands of galaxies, and together with Eesha, he was awarded the Intel Foundation Young Scientist Award. Meanwhile, Ionut Budisteanu impressed judges by creating a more affordable AI model for driverless cars, earning him the prestigious Gordon Moore Award and a $75,000 bonus. Eesha’s invention, however, stands out as particularly promising—after all, who wouldn’t want a phone that charges in seconds?

Although these supercapacitors are still in early development, they represent a big step forward. Right now, they can only power an LED light, but they’re a prototype for a new kind of battery that’s small, flexible, and can be charged and discharged over 10,000 times—ten times more than regular batteries. It seems like we might finally be on the verge of ending the frustration of “having to go home at night because your Android is dead.”
