Growth model for bamboolike structured carbon nanotubes synthesized using thermal chemical vapor deposition
Article Abstract:
Thermal chemical vapor deposition of acetylene (C2H2) is employed for growing the vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on iron (Fe) deposited silicon oxide (SiO2) substrate in a wide temperature range of 550 to 950 degree Celsius. Images obtained from transmission electron microscope reveal that all the CNTs had a bamboolike structure in which the curvature of compartment layers was directed to the tip, independently of growth temperature.

Electronic structure and field emission of multiwalled carbon nanotubes depending on growth temperature
Article Abstract:
The electronic structure of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was investigated, depending on the growth temperature, using synchrotron X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and field emission measurements. Field emission from the as-grown CNTs exhibits a large enhancement of current density with growth temperature, strongly correlated with the electronic structure revealed by XPS.

Selective chemical vapor deposition synthesis of double-wall carbon nanotubes on mesoporous silica
Article Abstract:
Double-wall carbon nanotubes (DWNTs) is selectively synthesized over Fe/Co loaded mesoporous silica by catalytic chemical vapor deposition of alcohol. Several silica materials with desired pore diameter and morphology is investigated for the DWNTs growth.
