Abstract:
In this work, ZnCo2O4@MnO2 core-shell structures are successfully prepared on nickel foam by a simple hydrothermal approach. The obtained core-shell structures exhibit excellent areal capacitance and cycling stability, which may be ascribed to the rational design of a hybrid-material based electrode structure that facilitates ion transport. The as-assembled supercapacitor device shows outstanding specific capacitance, demonstrating that ZnCo2O4@MnO2 core-shell structure is a candidate as a supercapacitor electrode material in flexible energy storage applications.

The paradox
Nucleosomes, paradoxically, perform two opposite functions simultaneously. On the one hand, their main responsibility is to protect the delicate DNA strands from physical damage and help achieve a higher compaction ratio. While on the other hand, they must allow polymerase enzymes to access DNA...
