چکیده
Triple-walled carbon nanotubes (TWNTs) with three concentric cylindrical graphene layers have been selectively synthesized for the first time from decomposition of ferrocene encapsulated inside double-walled carbon nanotubes, and were identified by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Raman spectroscopy; HRTEM observations reveal that the formation of inner tubes of TWNTs follows a base-growth mechanism.

Transverse vibration and instability of fluid conveying triple-walled carbon nanotubes based on strain-inertia gradient theory
In this paper, the transverse vibration of a triple-walled carbon nanotube (TWCNT) conveying fluid flow is studied based on the strain/inertia gradient theory with van der Waals interaction taken into consideration. The nanotube is modelled using Euler-Bernoulli beam model and the Galerkin’s method is employed to obtain the CNT complex valued Eigen-frequencies. The effects of the fluid flow tho...
متن کاملDynamic Instability Analysis of Embedded Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes under Combined Static and Periodic Axial Loads using Floquet–Lyapunov Theory
The dynamic instability of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT), double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNT) and triple-walled carbon nanotubes (TWCNT) embedded in an elastic medium under combined static and periodic axial loads are investigated using Floquet–Lyapunov theory. An elastic multiple-beam model is utilized where the nested slender nanotubes are coupled with each other through the van d...
متن کاملEnhanced ductile behavior of tensile-elongated individual double-walled and triple-walled carbon nanotubes at high temperatures.
We report exceptional ductile behavior in individual double-walled and triple-walled carbon nanotubes at temperatures above 2000 degrees C, with tensile elongation of 190% and diameter reduction of 90%, during in situ tensile-loading experiments conducted inside a high-resolution transmission electron microscope. Concurrent atomic-scale microstructure observations reveal that the superelongatio...
متن کاملA PARAMETRIC STUDY ON THE GROWTH OF SINGLE-WALLED CARBON NANOTUBES OVER CO-MO/MGO NANOCATALYST IN A FLUIDIZED BED REACTOR BY CCVD METHOD
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with high yield and quality were synthesized using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) over Co-Mo/ MgO nanocatalyst in a fluidized bed reactor. Different parameters such as temperature, the ratio of hydrocarbon source to hydrogen, the flow rate of gas, growth time, the size of catalyst particles, heating rate, and the kind of hydrocarbon source were examined t...
متن کاملGrowth of millimeter-long and horizontally aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes on flat substrates.
Millimeter-long and well-aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have been produced on silica/silicon surfaces using the carbon monoxide chemical vapor deposition (CO-CVD) method. The orientation of the nanotube arrays can be well-controlled by the gas flow during the growth. The majority of the orientated SWNTs are straight and individual. The length of the nanotubes can be >2 mm for a ...
