Novel Inorganic Nanofibers for Energy Storage Devices: New Avenue for Utilizing Effective and Cheap Electro Cataysts for the Advanced Energy Devices Ayman Ahmed Yousef Hassan

Aiming to have new energy devices and systems, researchers have worked to create new nanosized functional materials. Nanomaterials have a very high surface area to volume ratios, which result in special properties in comparison to the bulk materials. Among the reported nanostructures, nanofibers have special interest due to the high axial ratio. Inorganic nanofibers are considered the best candidate in the advanced energy devices such as Fuel cells and Dye sensitized solar cells due to the high chemical stability. In this book novel metallic nanofibers are introduced to be exploited as catalysts for ammonia borane dehydrogenation and as electrodes in fule cells and dye sensitized solar cells. The results are promosing.
