Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of High Coercivity Core–Shell Nanorods Based on Nickel and Cobalt and Their Magnetic Properties
TL;DR: The general mobility-assisted growth mechanism proposed for the growth of one-dimensional nanostructures inside nano porous alumina during potentiostatic electrodeposition is found to be valid in this case too.
Journal ArticleDOI
Manganese buffer induced high-performance disordered MnVO cathodes in zinc batteries
Shiqiang Wei,Shuangming Chen,Xiaozhi Su,Zhenghang Qi,Changda Wang,Babu Ganguli,Pengjun Zhang,Kefu Zhu,Yuyang Cao,Qun He,Dengfeng Cao,Xin Guo,Wen Wen,Xiaojun Wu,Pulickel M. Ajayan,Li Song +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the significant buffer role of a very small amount of Mn in a self-optimized cathode for an aqueous Zn-ion battery, which not only stabilizes the main structure of the vanadium-based electrode, but also modulates the Fermi surface of V 3d against excessive drift.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-assembled large scale metal alloy grid patterns as flexible transparent conductive layers
TL;DR: This work pioneers the scalable synthesis of transparent conductive films (TCFs) by exploiting the coffee-ring effect deposition coupled with reactive inkjet printing and subsequent chemical copper plating and shows excellent adhesion and preserve their structural integrity and good contact with the substrate for severe bending.
Journal ArticleDOI
High sulfur content multifunctional conducting polymer composite electrodes for stable Li-S battery
Anand B. Puthirath,Abhijit Baburaj,Keiko Kato,Devashish Salpekar,Nithya Chakingal,Yifan Cao,Ganguli Babu,Pulickel M. Ajayan +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, Li-S battery could be one of the most promising technologies, but challenges such as lithium polysulfide shuttling, sluggish reaction kinetics and low areal sulfur loading are still a challenge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled growth of carbon nanotubes
TL;DR: A short, state-of-the-art account of tailored nanotube growth, based on catalytic CVD using mainly gas–phase catalyst delivery, which allows to assemble single–walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes in predetermined multiple orientations on substrates to build one– to three–dimensional architectures.
