Self-assembled well-ordered whisker-like manganese dioxide (MnO2) arrays on carbon fiber paper (MOWAs) were synthesized via a simple in situ redox replacement reaction between potassium permanganate (KMnO4) and carbon fiber paper (CFP) without any other oxidant or reductant addition. The CFP serves...
