Femtosecond laser modification of an array of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes intercalated with Fe phase nanoparticles
Femtosecond lasers (FSL) are playing an increasingly important role in materials research, characterization, and modification. Due to an extremely short pulse width, interactions of FSL irradiation with solid surfaces attract special interest, and a number of unusual phenomena resulted in the formation of new materials are expected. Here, we report on a new nanostructure observed after the inte...
متن کاملMembranes of vertically aligned superlong carbon nanotubes.
In the present work, we have developed a simple but effective method to prepare superlong vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (SLVA-CNT) and epoxy composite membranes, and we have demonstrated that various liquids, including water, hexane, and dodecane, can effectively pass through the SLVA-CNT membranes. These results were confirmed by molecular dynamics simulations. While the mechanical densi...
متن کاملFunctionalization of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes
This review focuses and summarizes recent studies on the functionalization of carbon nanotubes oriented perpendicularly to their substrate, so-called vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VA-CNTs). The intrinsic properties of individual nanotubes make the VA-CNTs ideal candidates for integration in a wide range of devices, and many potential applications have been envisaged. These applications c...
متن کاملGas sensing with gold-decorated vertically aligned carbon nanotubes
Vertically aligned carbon nanotubes of different lengths (150, 300, 500 µm) synthesized by thermal chemical vapor deposition and decorated with gold nanoparticles were investigated as gas sensitive materials for detecting nitrogen dioxide (NO2) at room temperature. Gold nanoparticles of about 6 nm in diameter were sputtered on the top surface of the carbon nanotube forests to enhance the sensit...
متن کاملTemplated Growth of Hexagonal Nickel Carbide Nanocrystals on Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotubes (preprint)
Nanocrystals of hexagonal nickel carbide have been synthesized via physical vapor deposition of elemental nickel onto the surface of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes. Combining highresolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) with three-dimensional atom probe tomography (3DAP) confirmed that these nanocrystals have a hexagonal structure, are enriched in carbon, and have a composition ...
