AB  - Here we explored a novel ZnO nanorod array template-assisted electrodeposition 
      route to synthesize large-scale single-walled polypyrrole (PPy) nanotube arrays 
      (NTAs) and multi-walled MnO(2)/PPy/MnO(2) NTAs. The structures of nanotubes, such 
      as external and inner diameters, wall thicknesses, and lengths, can be well 
      controlled by adjusting the diameters and lengths of ZnO nanorods and deposition 
      time. The synthesized hybrid MnO(2)/PPy/MnO(2) triple-walled nanotube arrays 
      (TNTAs) as electrodes showed high supercapacitive perporties, excellent long-term 
      cycling stability, and high energy and power densities. The PPy layers in 
      MnO(2)/PPy/MnO(2) TNTAs provide reliable electrical connections to MnO(2) shells 
      and uniquely serve as highly conductive cores to support the redox reactions in 
      the active two-double MnO(2) shells with highly electrolytic accessible surface 
      area. The fabricated multi-walled NTAs allow high efficient utilization of 
      electrode materials with facilitated transports of ions and electrons. The 
      outstanding performance makes MnO(2)/PPy/MnO(2) TNTAs promising candidates for 
      supercapacitor electrodes.
