Electrochemical assessment of high active area of cobalt deposited in deep eutectic solvent

Preparation of nanostructured materials with highly efficient active area is crucial for advancement in fields of electrocatalytic conversion of energy, energy storage, or biomedicine. In this regard, there are two main challenges in the electrochemical preparation of high-extended surface area of t...
