Heteroepitaxial Growth of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes from Boron Nitride
The growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with predefined structure is of great importance for both fundamental research and their practical applications. Traditionally, SWCNTs are grown from a metal catalyst with a vapor-liquid-solid mechanism, where the catalyst is in liquid state with fluctuating structures, and it is intrinsically unfavorable for the structure control of SWCNTs....
متن کاملRaman spectroscopy of single-wall boron nitride nanotubes.
Single-wall boron nitride nanotubes samples synthesized by laser vaporization of a hexagonal BN target under a nitrogen atmosphere are studied by UV and visible Raman spectroscopy. We show that resonant conditions are necessary for investigating phonon modes of BNNTs. Raman excitation in the UV (229 nm) provides preresonant conditions, allowing the identification of the A1 tangential mode at 13...
متن کاملSingle-molecule sensing using carbon nanotubes decorated with magnetic clusters.
First-principles and nonequilibrium Green's function techniques are used to investigate magnetism and spin-polarized quantum transport in metallic carbon nanotubes (CNT) decorated with transition metal (Ni(13), Pt(13)) magnetic nanoclusters (NC). For small cluster sizes, the strong CNT-NC interaction induces spin-polarization in the CNT. The adsorption of a benzene molecule is found to drastica...
متن کاملElectrostatic Sensing and Electrochemistry with Single Carbon Nanotubes
Iddo HELLER natuurkundig ingenieur geboren te Rotterdam. Preface This thesis describes the research I did together with a number of people during my time in the molecular biophysics (MB) group at the TU Delft. This work would not have been possible without the invaluable help and support of a large number of people. In this preface I would like to give a flavor of what the time I spent in MB me...
متن کاملGrowing Carbon Nanotubes within Boron Nitride Nanotubes
The controlled synthesis and growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has been a long standing challenge in the fabrication of carbon based materials for electronic applications. Due to the sensitivity to small changes in their structure, the successful integration of CNTs on electronic devices is conditioned to the preservation of the graphitic network of single and multiwalled nanotubes from externa...
