Abstract

The sp 2 ‐hybridized nanocarbon (e.g., carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene) exhibits extraordinary mechanical strength and electrical conductivity but limited external accessible surface area and a small amount of pores, while nanostructured porous carbon affords a huge surface area and abundant pore structures but very poor electrical conductance. Herein the rational hybridization of the sp 2 nanocarbon and nanostructured porous carbon into hierarchical all‐carbon nanoarchitectures is demonstrated, with full inherited advantages of the component materials. The sp 2 graphene/CNT interlinked networks give the composites good electrical conductivity and a robust framework, while the meso‐/microporous carbon and…
