Optical characterization of vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotube arrays
Here we discuss spectroscopic investigation and characterization of vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotube (VA-SWNT) arrays, which were synthesized using the alcohol catalytic CVD method [1]. Growth of the VA-SWNTs was monitored using an in situ absorbance measurement [2], which provides information about the growth process. Primary methods employed were Resonance Raman and UV-Vis-NIR...
متن کاملHigh density, vertically-aligned carbon nanotube membranes.
A method is presented to prepare high-density, vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VA-CNT) membranes. The CNT arrays were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and the arrays were collapsed into dense membranes by capillary-forces due to solvent evaporation. The average space between the CNTs after shrinkage was approximately 3 nm, which is comparable to the pore size of the CNTs. Thus, ...
متن کاملIntegration and Bio-Functionalization of Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotube Forests on High Frequency AlN Gravimetric Sensors
In this work, we grow different types of carbon nanotube (CNT) forests directly on AlNbased electroacoustic biosensors and study their functionalization efficiency. CNTs are used to increase the effective surface area of the sensor, pursuing a better sensitivity, without increasing the sensor capacitance. Here we use a general method for CNT bio-functionalization with specific receptors for tar...
متن کاملMesoscopic modeling of the uniaxial compression and recovery of vertically aligned carbon nanotube forests
Vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) arrays or “forests” represent a promising class of mechanically strong and resilient lightweight materials, capable of supporting large reversible deformation and absorbing mechanical energy. The mechanical response of VACNT forests to uniaxial compression is defined by various factors, including the material microstructure, its density, height, rate o...
متن کاملConfocal Microscopy for Process Monitoring and Wide-Area Height Determination of Vertically-Aligned Carbon Nanotube Forests
Confocal microscopy is introduced as a new and generally applicable method for the characterization of the vertically-aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNT) forest height. With this technique process control is significantly intensified. The topography of the substrate and VACNT can be mapped with a height resolution down to 15 nm. The advantages of confocal microscopy, compared to scanning electron ...
