Perpendicular giant magnetoresistance of electrodeposited Co/Cu-multilayered nanowires in porous alumina templates
The giant magnetoresistance GMR of multilayered Co/Cu nanowires potentiostatically electrodeposited inside the pores of an anodized alumina template was studied in the current perpendicular to the plane CPP geometry. The maximum magnetoresistance change of 13.5% was observed for Co 8 nm /Cu 10 nm nanowires at room temperature. The interfacial roughness and/ or an intermixing between Co and Cu l...
متن کاملCatalytic size control of multiwalled carbon nanotube diameter in xylene chemical vapor deposition process
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT) of diameters of 10–40 nm are synthesized on Fe and Co coated nm-scale catalyst support in a xylene chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process without the need for ferrocene iron source. Silica ( 40 nm diameter) and nanocrystalline Au ( 10 nm) are coated with a monolayer of amine, sulfonate, or thiol termination to ensure monolayer Fe loading, reduce Fe surface mi...
متن کاملDensity control of electrodeposited Ni nanoparticles/nanowires inside porous anodic alumina templates by an exponential anodization voltage decrease.
Porous alumina templates have been fabricated by applying an exponential voltage decrease at the end of the anodization process. The time constant η of the exponential voltage function has been used to control the average thickness and the thickness distribution of the barrier layer at the bottom of the pores of the alumina structure. Depending on the η value, the thickness distribution of the ...
متن کاملInvestigating the outskirts of Fe and Co catalyst particles in alumina-supported catalytic CVD carbon nanotube growth.
Using thermal CVD, the synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes exhibiting roots anchored directly onto alpha-alumina supports, rather than the catalyst particle, is reported. At such roots, the alignment of the graphitic planes with the support lattice fringes depends on the support crystal structure and orientation. Surface defects may alter the reactivity of the surface or control the anch...
متن کاملAtomic Hydrogen-driven Size Control of Catalytic Nanoparticles for Single-walled Carbon Nanotube Growth
The effects of an atomic hydrogen (Hat ) pretreatment of the catalyst layer on the low tem‐ perature growth of single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have been investigated using a modified catalytic chemical vapor deposition system. Well‐defined and isolated individual Fe nanoparticles as a catalyst are successfully formed on the defects wit...
