Three-dimensional ZnO@MnO2 core@shell nanostructures for electrochemical energy storage

Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) ZnO@MnO₂ core@shell branched nanowire arrays exhibit five times higher areal capacitance, better rate performance and smaller inner resistance than their nanowire array counterparts. These novel 3D architectures offer promising designs for powering microelectronics and other autonomous devices on exceptionally small geometric scales.
