Low temperature growth of boron nitride nanotubes on substrates.
High growth temperatures (>1100 degrees C), low production yield, and impurities have prevented research progress and applications of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) in the past 10 years. Here, we show that BNNTs can be grown on substrates at 600 degrees C. These BNNTs are constructed of high-order tubular structures and can be used without purification. Tunneling spectroscopy indicates that th...
متن کاملMechanism for Low Temperature Growth of Boron Nitride Nanotubes
Selective growth of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) was demonstrated by plasma-enhanced pulsed laser deposition (PE-PLD). Although PLD is a physical vapor deposition technique for the growth of boron nitride (BN) thin films, ion sputtering induced by the plasma can eliminate the formation of BN thin films and lead to the so-called total resputtering region, in which, a pure phase of BNNTs can b...
متن کاملLongitudinal splitting of boron nitride nanotubes for the facile synthesis of high quality boron nitride nanoribbons.
Boron nitride nanoribbons (BNNRs), the boron nitride structural equivalent of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs), are predicted to possess unique electronic and magnetic properties. We report the synthesis of BNNRs through the potassium-intercalation-induced longitudinal splitting of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs). This facile, scalable synthesis results in narrow (down to 20 nm), few sheet (typicall...
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...
متن کاملBoron Nitride Nanotubes for Spintronics
With the end of Moore's law in sight, researchers are in search of an alternative approach to manipulate information. Spintronics or spin-based electronics, which uses the spin state of electrons to store, process and communicate information, offers exciting opportunities to sustain the current growth in the information industry. For example, the discovery of the giant magneto resistance (GMR) ...
