I have heard that a super capacitor can be made with a dvd burner. What materials do I need to to get and what software for my DVD burner do I need to make this amazing device?

Chemistry World UK have made this YouTube Clip that has a professor from UCLA explaining what is needed and how to go about it - even though the video is about 2.5 minutes, but it is a good demonstration. The associated article is DVD player burns graphene to disc
Additionally, according to this JensLabs page DIY Graphene, it states that the following readily available materials are needed:
- Graphite oxide
- Light scribe capable DVD burner
- Light scribe DVD
- Substrate
- Sonicator - the article suggests that a ultrasonic cleaner would suffice
- Pipette
- Ion-porous separator
- Electrolyte
