Electrochemical etching of MXenes: mechanism, challenges and future outlooks

Transition metal carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides, commonly known as MXenes, are an astonishing class of two-dimensional materials, offering versatile surface chemistry, high electrical conductivity, tunable band gaps, and a unique layered morphology, which render them highly attractive for multiple applications ranging from energy storage and conversion to biomedical fields. However, recognising the true potential of …

Nanoarchitectonics of Laser Induced MAX 3D-Printed Electrode for Photo-Electrocatalysis and Energy Storage Application with Long Cyclic Durability of 100 000 Cycles

3D printing, a rapidly expanding domain of additive manufacturing, enables the fabrication of intricate 3D structures with adjustable fabrication parameters and scalability. Nonetheless, post-fabrication, 3D-printed materials often require an activation step to eliminate non-conductive polymers, a process traditionally achieved through chemical, thermal, or electrochemical methods. These conventional activation techniques, however, suffer from inefficiency and inconsistent …
