Erratum: Facile synthesis of ultrahigh-surface-area hollow carbon nanospheres for enhanced adsorption and energy storage Fei Xu, Zhiwei Tang, Siqi Huang, Luyi Chen, Yeru Liang, Weicong Mai, Hui Zhong, Ruowen Fu & Dingcai Wu Nature Communications 6:7221 doi: 10.1038/ncomms8221 (2015); Published 15 Jun 2015; Updated 16 Jul 2015 This Article contains errors in the legend of Fig. 2 and Fig. 5 that were inadvertently introduced during the production process. In the legend of Fig. 2 the scale bar for panel e is incorrectly defined. The legend should have defined the scale bar as 100 nm. In Fig. 5f the scale on the x axis of the inset is incorrectly labelled. The correct version of Fig. 5 appears below.
