Symposium on Nanomaterials for Energy: Graphitic Petals for Electrochemical Charge Storage
11 May 2015 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Ron Reifenberger
The need for high-density electrochemical energy storage in today’s world is self-evident, and we have investigated the advantages offered by graphitic petals (GPs) to achieve this end. The controlled growth of GPs permits nano-texturing of a substrate, producing an enhanced carbon-based material...
