(Nanowerk Spotlight) Hierarchical structures, spanning multiple length scales from nano- to macroscales, are very common in nature; but only in recent years have they been systematically studied in ...

Unfortunately, ZIBs batteries suffer from the insulating iodine, low utilization ratio of active source, and the shuttle effect, resulting in the fast capacity decay and undesirable self-discharging ...

JBNU Researchers Propose Hierarchical Porous Copper Nanosheet-Based Triboelectric Nanogenerators JBNU Researchers Propose Hierarchical Porous Copper Nanosheet-Based Triboelectric Nanogenerators PR ...

Structural hierarchy is the cornerstone of the biological world, as well as the most important lesson that we have learned from nature to develop ingenious hierarchical porous materials for various ...

The MOF-derived TiO 2 @NPC@S composite has a hierarchical porous structure, which can effectively accommodate sulfur volume expansion and promote ion and electron transport during the charge-discharge ...

Milestones of porous materials with monomodal pore structures (Porous materials 1.0): (a) new zeolite topology, (b) organic zeolites, (c) mesoporous materials, and (d) extra-large pore zeolites.

Researchers have developed a novel method of 3D printing to fabricate 3D porous structures in one step. This method is named as immersion precipitation 3D printing (ip3DP). The porosity of the 3D ...

Recently, iodine has been increasingly used with zinc anodes to fabricate sustainable zinc–iodine (Zn–I 2) batteries (ZIBs) due to its high redox potential (I 2 /I-, 0.62 V vs. standard hydrogen ...
