The proposed book aims: (i) to provide a timely and comprehensive introduction of this rapidly-developing new area; (ii) to summarize the major advances that have been made; and (iii) to outline challenges and future directions for nanocarbon-NC hybrids in energy and sensing applications. Topics covered include nanocarbon-NC hybrid synthesis, characterization, properties, and applications in energy and sensing devices. Particularly, the hybrid structure, the advantages of combining nanocarbon with NCs, and the insight into the performance enhancement of nanocarbon-NC devices are discussed in detail. Further development and understanding of nanocarbon-NC hybrids could contribute to addressing challenges for the widespread use of nanocarbon-based sensors and the demand for new energy storage/conversion systems in the future. It is the first book of its kind to provide a comprehensive introduction of nanocarbon-NC hybrids with an emphasis on their use for energy storage/conversion and sensing applications. Combining nanocarbons with NCs provides a viable option to develop novel hybrid nanomaterials for sensors and energy devices.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Our research on CNT-NP hybrid structures began as a scientific curiosity. It has advanced to a stage where the methods to produce these hybrid nanostructures are available, and much more attention has been paid to such materials because of their potential widespread applications in many areas. The ESFDA technique can be used to efficiently coat randomly dispersed and verticallyaligned CNTs with various aerosol NPs. An intrinsic NP size selection has been observed during the assembly process. The final NP size distribution and areal density can be controlled through flow residence time/electric field or assembly time, respectively. For vertically-aligned CNTs, the electric field distribution near the CNT surface was computed using a simple model of the CNT as a cylinder with a hemispherical cap; the field enhancement factor increases from the root to the tip of the CNT for the two cases studied. The areal density and size distributions of nanocrystals observed along the CNTs in the vertical array can be rationalized by the variation of the electric field near the CNT surface; however, it is possible that shadowing effects also play a minor role on the variation in the nanocrystal areal density, but not on the nanocrystal size. NP production is not limited to the mini-arc reactor used in our earlier study. NPs produced by other aerosol reactors or by aerosolization of colloidal NPs can also be used for the assembly, although an additional charging device may be needed in some cases. Due to the material independence of electrostatic force, the capability of ESFDA has been greatly expanded. One can imagine that NPs of multiple materials, particularly interweaving metal and semiconductor/magnetic nanocrystals, can be assembled onto CNTs. These interesting multicomponent structures will open up new opportunities in several interdisciplinary fields. While the controlled production of the hybrid nanostructures is being perfected, a pressing area of research is to understand the synergistic interaction between the two nanocomponents, i.e., NPs and CNTs. Equally important is the understanding of the properties of hybrid nanostructures, which can be tailored for various innovative applications.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book offers a comprehensive overview of ZnO-nano carbon core shell hybrid issues. There is significant interest in metal oxide/nanocarbon hybrid functional materials in the field of energy conversion and storage as electrode materials for supercapacitors, Li ion secondary battery, electrocatalysts for water splitting, and optoelectronic devices such as light emitting diodes and solar photovoltaic cells. Despite efforts to manipulate more uniform metal oxide-nanocarbon nanocomposite structures, they have shown poor performance because they are randomly scattered and non-uniformly attached to the nanocarbon surface. For higher and more effective performance of the hybrid structure, 3D conformal coating on metal oxides are highly desirable. In the first part of the book, the physical and chemical properties of ZnO and nanocarbons and the state-of-the-art in related research are briefly summarized. In the next part, the 3D conformal coating synthetic processes of ZnO templated nanocarbon hybrid materials such as ZnO-graphene,-C60, single-walled (SWCNT) are introduced with the aid of schematic illustrations. Analysis of their chemical bonding and structure are also presented. In the final section, several applications are presented: UV photovoltaic cells and photoelectrochemical anodes for water splitting using ZnO-C60 and ZnO-graphene, white-light-emitting diodes based on ZnO-graphene quantum dots(GQDs), inverted solar cells using ligand-modified ZnO-graphene QDs, and P(VDF-TrFE) copolymer with mixed with nano-ring SWCNT. The book describes how strong anchoring bonds between a ZnO core and carbon nanomaterial shell will ultimately prevail over the main drawbacks of ZnO with high charge recombination and poor electrochemical stability in liquid solutions. Due to the moderate energy states and excellent electric properties of the nanocarbons, ultrafast charge carrier transport from the ZnO core to the nanocarbon shell is guaranteed with the use of the photoluminescence (PL) lifetime measurement. Given the growing interest and significance of future research in optoelectronic and electrochemical devices applications, the contents are very timely. This book is targeted towards researchers looking for highly efficient metal oxide-nanocarbon hybrid functional materials in the fields of nano-optoelectronics, photoelectrochemistry, energy storage and conversion.
