Harnessing Natural Wood Architecture: A Self‐Supporting, Hierarchically Porous NiFe@Carbon Capacitive Anode Enhances Electricity Generation and Storage in Microbial Fuel Cells

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study reports a mild “Zn(NO3)2 interlayer‐expansion” strategy combined with electrodeposition to produce a self‐supporting capacitive anode (NiFe@PC) that preserves the wood's native low‐tortuosity channels. The retained native architecture expands niches for microbial colonization.

Electric field stimulates production of highly conductive microbial OmcZ nanowires

Nature Chemical Biology, 2020
Multifunctional living materials are attractive due to their powerful ability to self-repair and replicate. However, most natural materials lack electronic functionality. Here we show that an electric field, applied to electricity-producing Geobacter sulfurreducens biofilms, stimulates production of cytochrome OmcZ nanowires with 1,000-fold higher ...
