A simple thermal chemical vapor deposition (STCVD) growth technique of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is present. Carbon nanotube film was synthesized on the Pt plate substrates by pyrolysis of ethyl alcohol as carbon source at lower reaction temperature at atmospheric pressure by using simple apparatus. The as-synthesized MWCNTs were characterized by both scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The electrical property of an individual MWCNT was evaluated by I-V measurement. The electrical resistance of single MWCNT is about 450 k/ in linear region under bias voltage between 2 to 4 V. It can undergo a large current of 6 2A at 4 V

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were synthesized from camphor by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method in a range of 750-900. The catalyst was fed in three ways: (a) a sputtered Fe-film on a quartz substrate (b) vaporized ferrocene in an Ar flow; (c) both of (a) and (b). In the case (c), highly pure, dense and aligned MWCNT arrays formed on the quartz substrate at 850, whereas nonaligned MWCNTs formed in the cases (a) and (b).

ABSTRACTSingle-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were synthesized both in powder form and on substrates using alcohol catalytic chemical vapor deposition method (ACCVD). A detailed parametric study was conducted. As-grown SWNTs were analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and Raman spectroscopy. Nucleation and growth of SWNTs occurred within seconds after introduction of the alcohol vapor. The results show that high quality SWNTs with a narrow diameter distribution without amorphous carbon can be grown using Co acetate catalyst doped with Fe acetate above 750°C. Defective nanotubes were observed at low (450°C) and high (950°C) temperatures with the optimum temperature being 850°C. In brief, our work has taken a step towards optimizing SWNTs growth conditions using ACCVD.
