Synthesis of Ultrasmall NiCo2O4 Nanoparticle-Decorated N-Doped Graphene Nanosheets as an Effective Catalyst for Zn–Air Batteries

In this work, NiCo2O4 nanoparticle-decorated N-doped graphene nanosheet has been fabricated using an effortless hydrothermal process, of which the N-doped graphene nanosheets fabricated by a novel non-thermal arc plasma method possess an extremely large specific surface area and small dimensions. The Zn-air battery with the catalyst exhibited excellent energy efficiency and cycling stability.
