Modulating electronic and geometric structure of transition metal compounds for efficient water splitting by Tang, Shasha

“…It is found that forming such core-branch hierarchical nanostructures out of both catalytic active materials is an effective strategy to increase the catalytic active sites, reaction kinetics, and charge transport. Specifically, leaves-like ultrathin Co(OH)2 nanoflakes are grown on the branch-like Cu(OH)2 nanowires via an combined synthesis of an anodization process and a electrodeposition process. …”
