Synthesis of 4H/fcc-Au@Metal Sulfide Core–Shell Nanoribbons
(2015)
Although great advances on the synthesis of Au–semiconductor heteronanostructures have been achieved, the crystal structure of Au components is limited to the common face-centered cubic (fcc) phase. Herein, we report the ...
Iron Oxide-Decorated Carbon for Supercapacitor Anodes with Ultrahigh Energy Density and Outstanding Cycling Stability
(2015)
Supercapacitor with ultrahigh energy density (e.g., comparable with those of rechargeable batteries) and long cycling ability (>50000 cycles) is attractive for the next-generation energy storage devices. The energy density ...
Stabilization of 4H hexagonal phase in gold nanoribbons
(2015)
Gold, silver, platinum and palladium typically crystallize with the face-centred cubic structure. Here we report the high-yield solution synthesis of gold nanoribbons in the 4H hexagonal polytype, a previously unreported ...
One-pot synthesis of CdS nanocrystals hybridized with single-layer transition-metal dichalcogenide nanosheets for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen evolution
(2015)
Exploration of low-cost and earth-abundant photocatalysts for highly efficient solar photocatalytic water splitting is of great importance. Although transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) showed outstanding performance ...
Supramolecular polymerization promoted in situ fabrication of nitrogen-doped porous graphene sheets as anode materials for Li-ion batteries
(2015)
A novel strategy of utilizing supramolecular polymerization for fabricating nitrogen doped porous graphene (NPG) with high doping level of 12 atom% as the anode material for lithium ion batteries is reported for the first ...
Thin metal nanostructures : synthesis, properties and applications

Two-dimensional nanomaterials, especially graphene and single- or few-layer transition metal dichalcogenide nanosheets, have attracted great research interest in recent years due to their distinctive physical, chemical and ...
Tubular TiC fibre nanostructures as supercapacitor electrode materials with stable cycling life and wide-temperature performance
(2015)
Highly active electrode materials with judicious design of nanostructure are important for the construction of high-performance electrochemical energy storage devices. In this work, we have fabricated a tubular TiC fibre ...
Synthesis of ultrathin face-centered-cubic Au@Pt and Au@Pd core-shell nanoplates from hexagonal-close-packed Au square sheets
(2015)
The synthesis of ultrathin face-centered-cubic (fcc) Au@Pt rhombic nanoplates is reported through the epitaxial growth of Pt on hexagonal-close-packed (hcp) Au square sheets (AuSSs). The Pt-layer growth results in a ...
