Arrays of mesoporous manganese dioxide, mp-MnO2, nanowires were electrodeposited on glass and silicon surfaces using the lithographically patterned nanowire electrodeposition (LPNE) method. The electrodeposition procedure involved the application, in a Mn(ClO4)2-containing aqueous electrolyte, of a...
