[ 21. An electric energy storage device comprising:
a multilayer structure comprising a plurality of heterostructures, each heterostructure including:
a first conductor layer;
a second conductor layer;
an ionic or dipole material layer sandwiched between the first and second conductor layers, wherein a thickness of the conductor layers and the ionic or dipole material layer between them are nanometer scale to form a quantum dipole system of excitons and ions, so that interaction between excitonic dipoles and ionic dipoles occur in the heterostructure; and
a quantum dot on the surface of the first or second conductor layer;
a positive electrode attached to the first conductor layer of a first heterostructure of the multilayer structure; and
a negative electrode attached to the second conductor layer of a last heterostructure of the multilayer structure,
wherein a first surface of the first conductor layer and a second surface of the second conductor layer are entirely coated with ionic or dipole materials and are insulated electrically,
wherein the first and second conductor layers are configured to store electrical energy in the heterostructure in a form of binding energy,
wherein electrical energy is stored in the heterostructure responsive to the application of a DC voltage to the positive and negative electrodes in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the first conductor layer of the first heterostructure, and
wherein the stored electrical energy is discharged and output to the electrodes responsive to application of a triggering electric potential.]
