TL;DR: This review presents an overview of porous 1D nanostructure research, from the synthesis by bottom-up and top-down approaches with rational and controllable structures, to several important electrochemical energy storage applications including lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion lithium-sulfur batteries, lithium-oxygen batteries and supercapacitors.

TL;DR: Metal-organic framework derived carbon-confined Ni2P nanocrystals supported on graphene with high effective surface area, more exposed active sites, and enhanced charge transport were successfully designed and shows excellent oxygen evolution reaction performance.

TL;DR: A self-adaptive strain-relaxed electrode through crumpling of graphene to serve as high-stretchy protective shells on metal framework, to overcome limitations of high-energy lithium battery materials.

TL;DR: In this article, a carbon-coated hierarchical NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 mesoporous microflowers (NTP/C-F) was synthesized via a facile and controllable solvothermal method and subsequent annealing treatment.

TL;DR: Alkaline earth metal vanadates are promising candidates due to the favorable electrochemical properties and interesting sodium-storage mechanism for sodium-ion batteries, and may open a direction for energy storage.
