Nanostructured Materials are materials with structural features on the scale (1-100 nm). These materials, characterized by their high surface area, tunable electronic properties, and enhanced charge transport, are dividing advancements in batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells. In energy storage, nanostructured materials enhance electrode surfaces, increasing the surface area and improving charge/discharge rates in batteries and supercapacitors. This results in higher energy density, faster charging times, and longer life cycles, making them ideal for applications in electric vehicles and portable electronics. For energy conversion, nanostructures are pivotal in improving the efficiency of solar cells by enhancing light absorption and charge transport. Similarly, in fuel cells, they facilitate better catalytic activity, leading to more efficient energy conversion processes. This book explores all the important applications of nanostructured materials in the present day scenario. It covers in detail some existent theories and innovative concepts revolving around energy storage and conversion. The topics covered in this book offer the readers new insights in this field.
