Three researchers from 黑料吃瓜网鈥檚 Dai Group published a paper with researchers from several other labs and universities on improved materials for energy storage.

Liming Dai, professor of macromolecular science and engineering and leader of the Dai Group, and senior research associates Rajib Paul and Feng Du co-authored the paper titled 鈥3-D Heteroatom鈥怐oped Carbon Nanomaterials as Multifunctional Metal鈥怓ree Catalysts for Integrated Energy Devices.鈥

It was published in Advanced Materials.

About the paper

The paper explored a new material for energy storage that is:

  • Three-dimensional;
  • Mesoporous;
  • Metal-free; and
  • Carbon-based.

These electrodes have multiple advantages, such as large surface area, maximized exposure to active sites, 3-D conductive pathways for efficient electron transport and porous channels to facilitate electrolyte diffusion. Read the article through .
