The adhesion of as-formed gas bubbles on the electrode surface usually impedes mass-transfer kinetics and subsequently decreases electrolysis efficiency. Here it is demonstrated that nanostructured MoS2 films conductive substrates show a faster hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), current increase, more-stable working state than their flat counterpart by significantly alleviating electrode. This study clearly reveals importance nano-porous structure for HER, which should be general beneficial...
Although carbonaceous materials possess long cycle stability and high power density, their low-energy density greatly limits applications. On the contrary, metal oxides are promising pseudocapacitive electrode for supercapacitors due to high-energy density. Nevertheless, poor electrical conductivity of constitutes a primary challenge that significantly energy storage capacity. Here, an advanced integrated high-performance pseudocapacitors has been designed by growing...

Moreover, becomes smaller when deviate from This size effect arises fact that 4H-AgNW has more favorable surface configuration but higher volume internal energy than FCC-AgNW, which proved our model.
ZnO 3D hierarchical structures assembled by different low-dimensional building blocks (nanosheet, nanoneedle) have been successfully synthesized at room temperature without the addition of organic agents.

We have developed a method combining lithography and catalytic etching to fabricate large-area (uniform coverage over an entire 5-in. wafer) arrays of vertically aligned single-crystal Si nanowires with high throughput. Coaxial n-Si/p-SiGe wire are also fabricated by further coating epitaxial SiGe layers on the wires using ultrahigh vacuum chemical vapor deposition (UHVCVD). This allows precise control diameter, length, density, spacing, orientation, shape, pattern location Si/SiGe nanowire...
