Y-junction carbon nanocoils: synthesis by chemical vapor deposition and formation mechanism
Y-junction carbon nanocoils (Y-CNCs) were synthesized by thermal chemical vapor deposition using Ni catalyst prepared by spray-coating method. According to the emerging morphologies of Y-CNCs, several growth models were advanced to elucidate their formation mechanisms. Regarding the Y-CNCs without metal catalyst in the Y-junctions, fusing of contiguous CNCs and a tip-growth mechanism are consid...
متن کاملGrowth of carbon nanostructures upon stainless steel and brass by thermal chemical vapor deposition method
The lack of complete understanding of the substrate effects on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) growth poses a lot oftechnical challenges. Here, we report the direct growth of nanostructures such as the CNTs on stainless steel 304and brass substrates using thermal chemical vapor deposition (TCVD) process with C2H2 gas as carbon sourceand hydrogen as supporting gas mixed in Ar gas flow. We used an especi...
متن کاملCarbon Nanotubes Synthesis by Chemical Vapor Deposition of Methane over Zn – Fe Mixed Catalysts Supported on Alumina
Carbon nanotubes were synthesized over a series of Zn-containing Fe/alumina catalysts by chemical vapor deposition method at two reaction temperatures of 850 and 950 °C using methane as a carbon source. Catalysts were synthesized by keeping Fe concentration constant and varying Zn concentration to study the effects of Zn. The catalysts were characterized using X – ray powder diffraction and N2 ...
متن کاملDetermination of Optical Properties in Germanium Carbon Coatings Deposited by Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition
In this research, Germanium-carbon coatings were deposited on ZnS substrates by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) using GeH4 and CH4 precursors. Optical parameters of the Ge1-xCx coating such as refractive index, Absorption coefficient, extinction coefficient and band gap were measured by the Swanepoel method based on the transmittance spectrum. The results showed that the refra...
متن کاملAlignment mechanism of carbon nanofibers produced by plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition
We report experimental evidence showing a direct correlation between the alignment of carbon nanofibers ~CNFs! prepared by plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition and the location of the catalyst particle during CNF growth. In particular, we find that CNFs that have a catalyst particle at the tip ~i.e., growth proceeds from the tip! align along the electric-field lines, whereas CNFs with the ...
