TL;DR: This work has shown that materials presenting high pseudocapacitence (metal oxides) are incorporated directly into highly conductive nanostructured carbons (carbon nanotubes) in a manner similar to batteries, which enables high energy density but is in general kinetically unfavorable.

TL;DR: In this article, a branched nano-heterostructure composed of SnO 2 nanowire stem and α -Fe 2 O 3 nanorod branches was synthesized by combining a vapour transport deposition and a facile hydrothermal method.

TL;DR: Large-scale p-type CuO nanowire thin-film transistors are fabricated and they effectively demonstrate their enhanced performance, which makes it a promising candidate for a poisonous gas sensing nanodevice.

TL;DR: Under the optical excitation, a UV random lasing is observed which originates from the hierarchically assembled ZnO branches, and such hybrid SnO(2)-ZnO nanostructures show an enhanced near-band gap emission compared with the primary SnO (2) nanowires.

TL;DR: In this paper, a replacement reaction between Ag nanoparticles and HAuCl4 at elevated temperatures was used to obtain homogeneous alloy nanoparticles with tunable size and composition, and the formation of homogeneous Alloy nanoparticles was confirmed by selected-area energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (SAEDX), UV?visible absorption spectra, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and electron diffraction.
