چکیده
Noble metal nanoparticles can be electrodeposited on carbon nanotubes under potential control. The nanotube sidewalls serve both as the electrodeposition template and as the wire electrically connecting the deposited nanoparticles.

Template-free electrodeposition of multicomponent metal nanoparticles for region-specific growth of interposed carbon nanotube micropatterns.
We have demonstrated that multicomponent carbon nanotube micropatterns, in which different nanotubes are interposed in an intimate fashion, can be prepared by pyrolytic growth of carbon nanotubes on interposed micropatterns of different metal nanoparticles generated by template-free pulsed electrodeposition of metal-containing salts onto a photolithographically prepatterned conductive surface a...
متن کاملVisible fluorescence induced by the metal semiconductor transition in composites of carbon nanotubes with noble metal nanoparticles.
We show that single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) bundles emit visible fluorescence in the presence of noble metal nanoparticles and nanorods in the solid state. Conductivity measurements with metallic nanotubes, isolated from pristine SWNTs, show that they become semiconducting in the presence of the metal nanoparticles. Nanoparticle binding increases the defects in the nanotube structures whi...
متن کاملElectrodeposition of nanowires for the detection of hydrogen gas
Nanowires composed of noble metals are attractive candidates for chemical sensors because they are both ductile and chemically stable in air. The single application where electrodeposited metal nanowires have had the largest impact is that of hydrogen gas (H2) sensing. The development of sensitive, selective, power-effi cient, rapid-responding, and inexpensive H2 sensors, for the purpose of det...
متن کاملComposite yarns of multiwalled carbon nanotubes with metallic electrical conductivity.
Unique macrostructures known as spun carbon-nanotube fibers (CNT yarns) can be manufactured from vertically aligned forests of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). These yarns behave as semiconductors with room-temperature conductivities of about 5 x 10(2) S cm(-1). Their potential use as, for example, microelectrodes in medical implants, wires in microelectronics, or lightweight conductors i...
متن کاملLaser-induced decoration of carbon nanotubes with metal nanoparticles
Hybrid nanomaterials consisting of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) decorated with noble metal nanoparticles were produced by irradiating aqueous mixed solutions of the separate components with nanosecond lasers pulses at 248 nm. Specifically, the decoration with Au and Pd nanoparticles is discussed. No decoration of the MWCNT was observed by simple mixing with nanoparticle solutions. Hence, ...
