Electrochemistry at Carbon Nanotube Electrodes: Is the Nanotube Tip More Active Than the Sidewall?

摘要

The molecular engineering of an electrode surface is of paramount importance for the development of electrochemical devices with region-specific electron-transfer capabilities. As they have a unique one-dimensional molecular geometry and excellent electronic properties, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been widely used as functional electrodes in various electrochemical systems.
