Compositional Properties

Taking Fe/NaY zeolite as catalysts, a range of nitrogen doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNTs) were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) at 1073K using ethanediamine, dimithylethanediamine and tetramethyl ethanediamine as nitrogen source and carbon source, respectively. The structural and compositional properties of N-CNTs were characterized by XRD, SEM and TEM. The results illustrate the microstructure of N-CNTs is strongly dependent on the N/C ratio of precursors. With the increase of N content in precursors, N-CNTs became shorter, more disorder, coarser surface and the average bamboo segment distance increased from 40 nm to 60 nm. A mechanism for the formation of the N-CNTs grown from three precursors with different N/C ratio has been proposed based on experimental observations.

A simple and reliable welding method was developed to weld carbon nanotubes with the power supply here. The carbon nanotubes were synthesized chemical vapor deposition method and Multi-walled carbon nanotubes was uesd here. Firstly, apply less than 5 V voltages between carbon nanotubes when they were in close proximity under direct view of optical microscope. Then, let carbon nanotube contact with each other and increase the external voltage to 7–8V until carbon nanotube was attached to the end of the other, the two carbon nanotube join into a carbon nanotube. Furthermore, some experiments were implemented to analyze the reliability, the images of the weld joint and the weld strength all indicted this method were reliable.

Here we described the synthesis of highly pure double walled carbon nanotube (DWNT) through a right combination of a catalytic chemical vapor deposition method and the two-step purification and evaluated their stacking infidelity when compared to multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). Easy fabrication of thin and flexible, but mechanically tough DWNT-buckypaper was due to the long and large-sized bundled DWNT (up to 50 nm), where DWNTs with diameter below 2 nm were packed in hexagonal array. Through detailed transmission electron microscope, X-ray and Raman studies, we confirmed that the intershell spacing of our DWNT sample was ca. 0.36 nm, which was believed to strongly affect negative and small magnetoresistance absolute value of −0.09 at 77 K and 1 T.

Fermented tapioca which is a new starting material was used as a carbon precursor. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were deposited on silicon wafer (Si) by Thermal Chemical Vapor Deposition (TCVD). The gas flow of Argon (Ar) was constant at 70 bubbles per minute and 20 minutes of deposition time. Before the deposition process, silicon was coated with Nickel using spin coater. Various parameters such as amount of inoculums have been studied. Chemical functional groups of carbon nanotubes were characterized using FT-IR Spectroscopy. The FT-IR result shows peaks attributed to multi–walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) vibration modes.
