Chemical vapor deposition is used to prepare novel 3D graphene networks, with ethanol as the carbon source. These networks are used as templates for the construction of graphene/metal oxide composite-based supercapacitor electrodes. As a proof of concept, NiO is deposited on 3D graphene networks. Th...
