Novel nitrogen-doped porous molybdenum carbide (α-MoC1−x and β-Mo2C) architectures were prepared using Mo-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as the precursor. The synthesized molybdenum carbides consist of numerous nanocrystals organized into micro-sized rods with interpenetrating mesoporous-chan...
