Carbon Nanotubes: A Review on Structure and Their ...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are allotropes of carbon with a nanostructure that can have a length-to-diameter ratio greater than 1,000,000. Techniques have been developed to produce nanotubes in sizeable quantities, including arc discharge, laser ablation, and chemical vapor deposition. Developments in the past few years have illustrated the potentially revolutionizing impact of nanomaterials ...

Anodic growth of highly ordered TiO2 nanotube …

2006-8-24 · Our longest nanotube arrays yield a roughness factor of 4750 and length-to-width (outer diameter) aspect ratio of approximately 835. The as-prepared nanotubes are amorphous but crystallize with annealing at elevated temperatures. In initial measurements, 45 mum long nanotube-array samples, 550 degrees C annealed, under UV illumination show a ...

One-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures | …

Because the nanotube diameter increased from 2 to >3 nm after BNNT coating, the synthesis of an additional MoS 2 nanotube became much easier, and the yield of the SWCNT-BNNT-MoS 2 heterostructure reached ~10% after 20 min of MoS 2 CVD. A rough count of the yield of heterostructure versus CVD time is provided in fig. S11.

World Record: Four-Centimeter-Long Carbon …

colonist writes "University of California scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory and chemists from Duke University have recently grown a four-centimeter-long, single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT): a new world record. Previous SWNTs were a few millimeters long. Yuntian Zhu and his colleagues used a process called 'catalytic chemical vapor deposition' from ethanol (alcohol) vapor.
