Hollow Nanostructures


Hollow nanostructures are the new style of material showing the advanced application in many fields. We focus mainly on applying these materials for energy storage and sensing applications. Hollow structures are very hard to stabilise or the methods are costly and are less industrially viable. So, we devote ourselves to synthesising materials cost-efficient with very simple strategies like mini emulsion, self-assembly, etc. We also study the modelling of such hollow structures and the chemical reasoning behind the higher activity.
