One-Dimensional nanomaterials with large surface area, more surface active sites and better permeability can significantly increase the energy density, power density and cycling performance for the energy storage. Such hierarchical structure can also be used as targeted intracellular recording for its facile synthesis route. In our present work, a series of hierarchical nanomaterials have been obtained, including kinked hierarchical nanowires, hierarchical heterostructured nanowires and hierarchical scrolled nanowires which shows great electrochemical performance.

To improve the electrochemical performance, V3O7 nanowire templated semi-hollow bicontinous graphene scrolls architecture is designed and constructed through “oriented assembly” and “self-scroll” strategy. The V3O7 nanowire templated semi-hollow bicontinous graphene scrolls with interior cavities provide continuous electron and lithium ion transfer channel and space for free volume expansion of V3O7 nanowires during cycling, thus representing a unique architecture for excellent lithium ion storage capacity and cycling performance.1 In order to realize the fast and efficient transport of ions/electrons and the stable structure during the charge/discharge process, hierarchical porous Fe3O4/graphene nanowires supported by amorphous vanadium oxide matrixes have been rationally synthesized through a facile phase separation process. The porous structure is directly in situ constructed from the FeVO4·1.1H2O@graphene nanowires along with the crystallization of Fe3O4 and the amorphization of vanadium oxide without using any hard templates. The hierarchical porous Fe3O4/VOx/graphene nanowires exhibit a high Coulombic efficiency and outstanding reversible specific capacity (1146 mAh g-1). Even at the high current density of 5 A g-1, the porous nanowires maintain a reversible capacity of ∼500 mAh g-1. Our work presented here can inspire new thought in constructing novel one-dimensional structures and accelerate the development of energy storage appilications.
