description Materials with different nanostructures can have diverse physical properties, and they exhibit unusual properties as compared to their bulk counterparts. Therefore, the structural control of desired nanomaterials is intensely attractive to many scientific applications. In this brief review, we mainly focus on reviewing our recent reports based on the materials of graphene and the transition metal chalcogenide, which have various low-dimensional nanostructures, in relation to the use of electrocatalysts in electrochemical energy applications; moreover, related literatures were also partially selected for discussion. In addition, future aspects of the nanostructure design related to the further enhancement of the performance of pertinent electrochemical energy devices will also be mentioned.
