title: Nickel Cobaltite Nanostructures for Photoelectric and Catalytic Applications.
abstract: Bimetallic oxide nickel cobaltite (NiCo2 O4 ) shows extensive potential for innovative photoelectronic and energetic materials owing to their distinctive physical and chemical properties. In this review, representative fabrications and applications of NiCo2 O4 nanostructures are outlined for photoelectronic conversion, catalysis, and energy storage, aiming to promote the development of NiCo2 O4 nanomaterials in these fields through an analysis and comparison of their diverse nanostructures. Firstly, a brief introduction of the spinel structures, properties, and morphologies of NiCo2 O4 nanomaterials are presented. Then, the advanced progress of NiCo2 O4 nanomaterials for both photoelectronic conversion and energy fields is summarized including such examples as solar cells, electrocatalysis, and lithium ion batteries. Finally, further prospects and promising developments of NiCo2 O4 nanomaterials in these significant fields are proposed.
