Ultrafine metal-oxide-decorated hybrid carbon nanofibers (CNFs) were fabricated by a single-nozzle co-electrospinning process using a phase-separated mixed polymer composite solution and heat treatment. To decorate metal oxides on the CNF surface, core (PAN) and shell (PVP) structured nanofibers (NFs) were
