Gas 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 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 کاملIntegrating vertically aligned carbon nanotubes on micromechanical structures
We present preliminary results on a microfabrication approach to enable the integration of high yield, uniform, and preferential growth of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes ~VACNTs! on low-stress micromechanical structures using a combination of ‘‘electron-beam crosslinked’’ poly~methylmethacrylate! surface nanomachining and direct current plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of electric...
متن کاملGlucose Biosensors Based on Vertically-Aligned Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes
Vertically-aligned multiwalled carbon nanotubes (VA-MWCNTs) were grown using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technique. These VA-MWCNTs were then dip coated by Poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) followed by annealing. Samples were then polished to expose the tips of CNTs. Biological molecules Glucose Oxidase (GOx) were then immobilized on the exposed tips of these nanoelectrode e...
