Abstract:As a one-dimensional (1D) allotrope of carbon, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been widely investigated in the past two decades owing to their unique mechanical strength, large surface-to-volume ratio, and electrical properties. Graphene, a two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb nanostructure composed of single-layer carbon atoms, is also a promising choice for potential applications in energy storage. Interestingly, a fine combination of 1D and 2D building blocks that leads to the formation of a three-dimensional (3D) h… Show more
