Three-dimensional (3D) carbon-based micro/nanostructures have the advantage of excellent mechanical, electrical and electrochemical properties, superior biocompatibility, etc. Various methods will be presented to demonstrate the scale fabrication of carbon-based high-aspect-ratio MEMS/NEMS and hierarchical flexible structures for their application in chemical and biological sensing and electrochemical energy storage. The possible integrating strategies of a wide variety of target nanostructures such as carbon nanotubes, nanowires, nanofilms, and nanowrinkles onto these 3D structures will also be introduced. These include our recent efforts to find an effective and productive path to further improve their performance as sensors, supercapacitors, and Li+ batteries. Meanwhile, the existing issues and technological challenges are discussed for the advancement of these structures toward commercial applications.
