Engineering Hybrid Nanostructures: Novel Aqueous Routes to Integrate Electrochemically Active Metal Clusters into Carbon Nanomaterial or Polymeric Matrices for Functional Energy Storage and Conversion Materials
Electronic conductivity of porous electrodes by Faradaic and non-Faradaic charge transfer processes impacts the energy and power densities and overall performance of electrochemical energy storage and conversion devices. Carbon nanomaterials constitute an ideal material composite platform for integration with other solid-state electrode materials in power devices. Self-assembly has been recognized as an effective strategy for the bottom–up synthesis of 3D macrostructures using graphene and carbon nanotube as building blocks. The need for chemical precursor vaporization
