چکیده
Using a shielded growth approach and N2-annealed, nearly monodispersed Fe2O3 nanoparticles synthesized by interdendritic stabilization of Fe3+ species within fourth-generation poly(amidoamine) dendrimers, carbon nanotubes and nanofibers were successfully grown at low substrate temperatures (200-400 degrees C) by microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition.

We evaluated the effect of Fe/Alumina Catalyst contained different Cadmium contents and two synthesis temperatures on producing carbon nanotubes by chemical vapor deposition of methane as a feedstock. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy and Thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) were u...
متن کاملFabrication of Carbon Nanotube Networks on Three-Dimensional Building Blocks and Their Applications
Three-dimensional (3D) networks of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were fabricated on a pillarpatterned substrate by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). To fabricate 3D networks of CNTs, highly crystalline single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs) should be synthesize on the substrate. PECVD has advantages for low temperature growth and alignment of CNTs on the substrate, but it is difficult to synthe...
متن کاملLow-temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition of carbon nanotubes
Vertically aligned carbon nanotubes were selectively grown at temperatures as low as 120 8C by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition. We investigated the effects of acetylene, ethylene and methane as carbon source gases together with ammonia as an etchant and nickel as catalyst material. The diluted acetylene plasma gave the highest nanotube growth rate and showed the most intense C Swan b...
متن کاملCarbon nanotube formation directly on the surface of stainless steel materials by plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition
We have developed a method for forming carbon nanotubes (CNTs) directly on the surfaces of stainless steel materials that are important industrially. Using plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (PCVD), CNTs are formed at comparatively low temperatures, thus avoiding excessive annealing and degradation of the stainless steel. Because the catalytic metals needed for CNT formation are containe...
