Abstract
A method of synthesizing a doped carbon composite includes preparing a solution having a carbon source material and a heteroatom containing additive, evaporating the solution to yield a plurality of powders, and subjecting the plurality of powders to a heat treatment for a duration of time effective to produce the doped carbon composite.
Claims8
A method of synthesizing a doped carbon composite, comprising the steps of:
- (a) preparing a solution having a material containing tannin and a non-metallic additive containing a doping chemical element;
- (b) evaporating the solution to yield a plurality of powders;
- and
- (c) subjecting the plurality of powders to a heat treatment for a duration of time effective to produce the doped carbon composite,
- wherein no metal source material is used in the method, such that the doped carbon composite does not contain metal component.
