Abstract
Decorating two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials with nanoparticles provides an effective method to integrate their physicochemical properties. In this work, we present the hydrothermal growth process of 2D zinc oxide nanoplates (ZnO NPls), then silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were uniformly distributed on the surface of ZnO NPls through the reduction procedure of silver nitrate with sodium borohydride to create a metal–semiconductor hybrid. The amount of AgNPs on the ZnO NPls' surface was carefully controlled by varying the volume of silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution. Moreover, the effect of AgNPs on the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) property of ZnO NPls was thoroughly investigated by using methylene blue (MB) as the target molecule. After calculation, the maximum enhancement factor value for 10−4 M of MB reached 6.2 × 106 for the peak at 1436 cm−1 and the limit of detection was 10−9 M. In addition, the hybrid nanosystem could distinguish MB with good reproducibility over a wide range of concentrations, from 10−9 to 10−4 M. The SERS mechanism is well elucidated based on the chemical and electromagnetic mechanisms related to the synergism of ZnO and Ag in the enhancement of Raman signal. Abundant hot spots located at the gap between adjacent separate Ag nanoparticles and ZnO nanoplates which formed a strong local electromagnetic field and electron transfer between ZnO and Ag are considered to be the key factors affecting the SERS performance of our prepared ZnO/Ag substrates. In this research, we found high sensitivity of ZnO nanoplates/Ag nanoparticles in detecting MB molecules. This unique metal–semiconductor hybrid nanosystem is advantageous for the formation of Raman signals and is thus suitable for the trace detection of methylene blue. Decorating two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials with nanoparticles provides an effective method to integrate their physicochemical properties.![]()

Abstract
Low electronic conductivity and large volume variation result in inferior lithium storage performance of ZnO. To overcome these shortcomings of ZnO, herein ZnO nanoparticles are encapsulated in resorcinol-formaldehyde resin-derived hard carbon and then further assembled into a 3-dimensional mesoporous framework structure using a polyvinyl pyrrolidone-derived soft carbon network. The synthesis methods include the polymerization of resorcinol-formaldehyde resin and a polyvinyl pyrrolidone-boiling method. ZnO@dual carbon has af large specific surface area (153.7 m2 g-1) and high porosity. It exhibits excellent cycling performance and high rate capability. After 350 cycles at 500 mA g-1, the ZnO@dual carbon still delivers a discharge capacity of 701 mAh g-1 while the actual discharge capacity of ZnO reaches 950.9 mAh g-1. At 2 A g-1, ZnO@dual carbon delivers the average discharge capacity of 469.6 mAh g-1. The electrochemical performance of ZnO@dual carbon is remarkably superior to those of ZnO@single carbon, pure carbon and pure ZnO nanoparticles, demonstrating the superiority of the dual carbon-assembly structure. This composite structure greatly improves the structural stability of ZnO, enhances its electron conductivity and overall electron transport capacity; which facilitates electrolyte penetration and Li ion diffusion, leading to improved cycling stability and good rate capability.

Abstract
Self-assembled supraparticles (SPs), a secondary structure of clustered nanoparticles, have attracted considerable interest owing to their highly tunable structure, composition, and morphology from their primary nanoparticle constituents. In this study, hierarchically assembled hollow Cu2O SPs were prepared using a cationic polyelectrolyte poly(diallyl dimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) during the formation of Cu2O nanoparticles. The concentration-dependent structural transformation of PDDA from linear chains to assembled droplets plays a crucial role in forming a hollow colloidal template, affording the self-assembly of Cu2O nanoparticles as a secondary surfactant. The use of the positively charged PDDA also affords negatively charged nanoscale graphene oxide (NGO), an electrical and mechanical supporter to uniformly coat the surface of the hollow Cu2O SPs. Subsequent thermal treatment to enhance the electrical conductivity of NGO within the NGO/Cu2O SPs allows for the concomitant phase transformation of Cu2O to CuO, affording reduced NGO/CuO (RNGO/CuO) SPs. The uniquely structured hollow RNGO/CuO SPs achieve improved electrochemical properties by providing enhanced electrical conductivity and electroactive surface area.

Abstract
ZnO has attracted increasing attention as an anode for lithium ion batteries. However, the application of such anode materials remains restricted by their poor conductivity and large volume changes during the charge/discharge process. Herein, we report a simple hydrothermal method to synthesize ZnO nanosheets with a large surface area standing on a Ni foam framework, which is applied as a binder-free anode for lithium ion batteries. ZnO nanosheets were grown in situ on Ni foam, resulting in enhanced conductivity and enough space to buffer the volume changes of the battery. The ZnO nanosheets@Ni foam anode showed a high specific capacity (1507 mA h g-1 at 0.2 A g-1), good capacity retention (1292 mA h g-1 after 45 cycles), and superior rate capacity, which are better than those of ZnO nanomaterial-based anodes reported previously. Moreover, other transition metal oxides, such as Fe2O3 and NiO were also formed in situ on Ni foam with perfect standing nanosheets structures by this hydrothermal method, confirming the universality and efficiency of this synthetic route.
