Herein, the Zhang group reported a self-template strategy for rationally designed synthesis of double-layered ZnS@CdS porous nanotubes (PNTs) with an open-ended structure. The fabrication of a ...

This involves embedding a zincophilic Sn layer within a corrosion-resistant ZnS layer. The Sn layer, with its strong adsorption energy for Zn atoms, accelerates the nucleation of Zn atoms and ...
