The present invention is directed to nanowire structures and interconnected nanowire networks comprising such structures, as well as methods for their production. The nanowire structures comprise a nanowire core, a carbon-based layer, and in additional embodiments, carbon-based structures such as nanographitic plates consisting of graphenes formed on the nanowire cores, interconnecting the nanowire structures in the networks. The networks are porous structures that can be formed into membranes or particles. The nanowire structures and the networks formed using them are useful in catalyst and electrode applications, including fuel cells, as well as field emission devices, support substrates and chromatographic applications.

L'invention porte sur des structures de nanofils et sur des réseaux interconnectés de nanofils, ainsi que sur leurs méthodes d'obtention. Les structures de nanofils comportent un noyaux de nanofils, et une couche à base de carbone. Dans certaines exécutions des structures à base de carbone telles que des plaques nanographitiques consistant en graphènes formés sur des noyaux de nanofils interconnectent les structures de nanofils des réseaux. Les réseaux sont des structures poreuses pouvant former des membranes ou des particules. Les structures de nanofils et les réseaux en étant faits peuvent s'utiliser dans des applications de catalyseurs et d'électrodes, dont les piles à combustible, les dispositifs à émission de champs, les substrats supports et la chromatographie.
