Article Abstract
This study uses a facile one-step hydrothermal method to successfully synthesize hierarchical dandelion flower-like CuCoO/CoS structures on Ni foam. The composite exhibits a unique dandelion flower-like architecture comprising interconnected nanograss arrays (NGAs), resulting in a significantly higher surface area than individual CuCoO and CoS electrodes. Electrochemical characterization reveals that the CuCoO/CoS electrode exhibits superior electrochemical performance, demonstrating battery-type behavior with well-defined redox peaks in cyclic voltammetry and distinct plateaus in galvanostatic charge-discharge curves. The composite electrode delivers a high specific capacity of 217.86 mA h g at a current density of 6 mA cm, surpassing the performance of individual CuCoO (142.54 mA h g) and CoS (160.37 mA h g) electrodes. Moreover, the composite electrodes exhibit outstanding cycling life, retaining 86.23% of their initial capacity in over 3000 cycles. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis confirms lower charge transfer resistance and solution resistance for the composite electrode, indicating improved charge transfer kinetics and ion diffusion. These findings demonstrate that the hierarchical CuCoO/CoS composite holds significant promise as a high-performance battery-type electrode material for supercapacitor applications.

This study successfully fabricated silver-decorated, submicrometer patterned zinc oxide (ZnO) nanograss substrates using nanoimprint lithography (NIL) and hydrothermal synthesis to achieve enhanced surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensitivity. The ZnO nanograss structures were precisely patterned via NIL, allowing for controlled spatial arrangement and selective growth, with grating periods ranging from 1000 to 2000 nm and defined area widths between 500 and 1000 nm. Silver nanoparticles were deposited on the substrates through electron beam evaporation.

Faraday cages are extensively utilized in plasma-based etching and deposition processes to regulate ion behavior due to their shielding effect on electromagnetic fields. Herein, vertical silicon nanopillar arrays are fabricated through SF and O reactive ion etching. By incorporation of a Faraday cage in the plasma equipment, the impact of the Faraday cage on the morphology of the silicon nanopillars is analyzed; the Faraday cage blocks out the sputtered particles and eradicates the formation of silicon nanograss.
