In the traditional PECVD method for growing carbon nanotubes (CNTs), the electric field is an important parameter. Its role is to orient CNT growth and dissociate the H-C bond from hydrocarbon gases. Therefore, high energy ions, molecules, and radicals as plasma elements can affect the verticality of CNTs. In this paper, a new configuration for an electric field for the growth of field-oriented and long CNTs on a glass substrate at temperatures below 400°C is reported. Simulation and experimental data show that CNTs are grown at a considerably lower voltage than traditional methods. Using this method, growing vertical CNT on such low-cost substrate glass is more possible for CNT-based devices and bio-applications where price is important.
