A facile and cost-effective approach for the fabrication of a hierarchical nanocomposite material of graphene-wrapped MnO2 -graphene nanoribbons (GMG) is developed. The resulting composite has a high specific capacity and an excellent cycling stability owing to the synergistic combination of the electrically conductive graphene, graphene nanoribbons, and MnO2 .

The ingenious design of a freestanding flexible electrode brings the possibility for power sources in emerging wearable electronic devices. Here, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) wraps carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and rGO tightly surrounded by MnO nanosheets, forming a 3D multilevel porous conductive structure via vacuum freeze-drying. The sandwich-like architecture possesses multiple functions as a flexible anode for lithium-ion batteries.

A simple synthetic approach for graphene-templated nanostructured MnO2 nanowires self-inserted with Co3 O4 nanocages is proposed in this work. The Co3 O4 nanocages were penetrated in situ by MnO2 nanowires. As an anode, the as-obtained MnO2 -Co3 O4 -RGO composite exhibits remarkable enhanced performance compared with the MnO2 -RGO and Co3 O4 -RGO samples.

We report the design and fabrication of a new type of nanohybrid microelectrode based on a hierarchical nanostructured Au/MnO2/graphene-modified carbon fiber (CF) via in situ electrochemical synthesis, which leads to better structural integration of different building blocks into the CF microelectrode. Our finding demonstrates that wrapping CF with graphene nanosheets has dramatically increased the surface area and electrical conductivity of the CF microelectrode. The subsequent template-free electrodeposition of MnO2 on graphene-wrapped CF gives rise to a porous nanonest architecture built up from twisted and intersectant MnO2 nanowires, which serves as an ideal substrate for the direct growth of Au nanoparticles.
