Abstract

Turning a new leaf: Complex, hierarchical structures of magnetic and conductive iron carbide (Fe3C) have been synthesized from a biological template. By dispersing aqueous metal precursors over the surface of a leaf skeleton, the intricate vascular structure is replicated in the ceramic product (see picture: Fe3C leaf structures attached to a magnet).
