Making Nanostructured Porous Hollow Spheres with Tunable Structure

Professor Lu and colleagues have devised a rapid, aerosol-based production method for metal-carbon composite spherical particles with porous hollow interiors. Inorganic hollow nanostructures previously required complicated and cumbersome practices to prepare. In this technology, materials such as organic ligands are used as permanent or removable structural templates for to produce well-ordered, porous hollow metal-carbon spheres. This approach can be applied to each elemental metal synthesize composite particles with tunable morphologies. The technology has wide applications in catalysis, sensing, energy conversion and storage, and drug delivery.
