title: Synthesis and surface activity of single-crystalline Co3O4 (111) holey nanosheets.
abstract: Single crystalline, thermally stable, Co(3)O(4) (111) holey nano-sheets were prepared by an efficient, template-free, wet chemical synthetic approach. The high energy (111) surfaces formed can be used as highly active heterogeneous catalysts for methanol decomposition.
