Abstract
Functional materials and methods for making the functional materials are provided. Also provided are methods for utilizing the functional materials in a variety of applications, including catalysis, adsorption, energy storage, and biomedical applications. The functional materials are made from metal alloys via an oxidative dealloying process that selectively removes one or more elements from the metal alloy and converts one or more of the remaining elements into a stable metal-oxygen matrix having a controlled porosity.
