The synthesis of vertical ReS2 nanowalls on 3D graphene foam (V-ReS2/3DGF) is demonstrated by a chemical vapor deposition route. nanowall structure leads to an effective exposure active sites and enhances the lithium interaction with all layers. When serving as anode material for lithium-ion batteries, V-ReS2/3DGF composite demonstrates excellent cycling stability at high-current-density. As service our authors readers, this journal provides supporting information supplied authors. Such...
Abstract Improving the stability of cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O) is imperative to its practical applications in artificial photosynthesis. In this work, Cu O nanowires are encapsulated by metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) 3 (BTC) (BTC=1,3,5‐benzene tricarboxylate) using a surfactant‐free method. Such MOFs not only suppress water vapor‐induced corrosion but also facilitate charge separation and CO uptake, thus resulting nanocomposite representing 1.9 times improved activity for selective...
