Performance modulation of α-MnO2 nanowires by crystal facet engineering
Modulation of material physical and chemical properties through selective surface engineering is currently one of the most active research fields, aimed at optimizing functional performance for applications. The activity of exposed crystal planes determines the catalytic, sensory, photocatalytic, and electrochemical behavior of a material. In the research on nanomagnets, it opens up new perspec...
متن کاملUncoupled surface spin induced exchange bias in α-MnO2 nanowires
We have studied the microstructure, surface states, valence fluctuations, magnetic properties, and exchange bias effect in MnO2 nanowires. High purity α-MnO2 rectangular nanowires were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method with microwave-assisted procedures. The microstructure analysis indicates that the nanowires grow in the [0 0 1] direction with the (2 1 0) plane as the surface. Mn(3+)...
متن کاملGraphene Scroll-Coated α-MnO2 Nanowires as High-Performance Cathode Materials for Aqueous Zn-Ion Battery.
The development of manganese dioxide as the cathode for aqueous Zn-ion battery (ZIB) is limited by the rapid capacity fading and material dissolution. Here, a highly reversible aqueous ZIB using graphene scroll-coated α-MnO2 as the cathode is proposed. The graphene scroll is uniformly coated on the MnO2 nanowire with an average width of 5 nm, which increases the electrical conductivity of the M...
متن کاملSelf-branched -MnO2/-MnO2 heterojunction nanowires with enhanced pseudocapacitance
Despite the extensive research on MnO2 as a pseudocapacitor electrode material, there has been no report on heterostructures of multiple phase MnO2. Here we report the combination of two high-capacitance phases of MnO2, namely, a-MnO2 nanowires and d-MnO2 ultrathin nanoflakes, to form a core-branch heterostructure nanoarray. This material and structure design not only increases the mass loading...
متن کاملEnhanced Cycleability of Amorphous MnO2 by Covering on α-MnO2 Needles in an Electrochemical Capacitor
An allomorph MnO₂@MnO₂ core-shell nanostructure was developed via a two-step aqueous reaction method. The data analysis of Scanning Electron Microscopy, Transmission Electron Microscopy, X-Ray Diffraction and N₂ adsorption-desorption isotherms experiments indicated that this unique architecture consisted of a porous layer of amorphous-MnO₂ nano-sheets which were well grown onto the surface of α...
