Reliable Diameter Control of Carbon Nanotube Nanobundles Using Withdrawal Velocity
Carbon nanotube (CNT) nanobundles are widely used in nanoscale imaging, fabrication, and electrochemical and biological sensing. The diameter of CNT nanobundles should be controlled precisely, because it is an important factor in determining electrode performance. Here, we fabricated CNT nanobundles on tungsten tips using dielectrophoresis (DEP) force and controlled their diameters by varying t...
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 کاملDiameter control of single-walled carbon nanotube forests from 1.3–3.0 nm by arc plasma deposition
We present a method to both precisely and continuously control the average diameter of single-walled carbon nanotubes in a forest ranging from 1.3 to 3.0 nm with ~1 Å resolution. The diameter control of the forest was achieved through tuning of the catalyst state (size, density, and composition) using arc plasma deposition of nanoparticles. This 1.7 nm control range and 1 Å precision exceed the...
متن کاملSmallest carbon nanotube is 3 a in diameter.
Previous energetic considerations have led to the belief that carbon nanotubes (CNTs) of 4 A in diameter are the smallest stable CNTs. Using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, we find that a stable 3 A CNT can be grown inside a multiwalled carbon nanotube. Density functional calculations indicate that the 3 A CNT is the armchair CNT(2,2) with a radial breathing mode at 787 cm(-1)...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effect of Carbon Nanotube Diameter and Wall Number in Carbon Nanotube/Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells
Suspensions of single-walled, double-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were generated in the same solvent at similar concentrations. Films were fabricated from these suspensions and used in carbon nanotube/silicon heterojunction solar cells and their properties were compared with reference to the number of walls in the nanotube samples. It was found that single-walled nanotubes ge...
