Growth and field emission properties of vertically aligned carbon nanofibers
Vertically aligned carbon nanofibers sVACNFsd were synthesized on Ni-coated Si substrates using a dc plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition system. The size of the Ni islands used as catalyst to grow the VACNFs was formed by both thermal annealing and laser processing on thin metal layers. It was observed that the diameter of the carbon nanofibers is strongly dependent on the initial Ni isla...
متن کاملReversible electrowetting of vertically aligned superhydrophobic carbon nanofibers.
Reversible electrostatically induced wetting (electrowetting) of vertically aligned superhydrophobic carbon nanofibers has been investigated. Carbon nanofibers on a 5 x 5 microm pitch were grown on Si substrates, electrically insulated with a conformal dielectric, and hydrophobized with fluoropolymer. This nanostructured scaffold exhibited superhydrophobic behavior for saline (theta approximate...
متن کاملVertically aligned carbon nanotubes for microelectrode arrays applications.
In this work a methodology to fabricate carbon nanotube based electrodes using plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition has been explored and defined. The final integrated microelectrode based devices should present specific properties that make them suitable for microelectrode arrays applications. The methodology studied has been focused on the preparation of highly regular and dense vertica...
متن کاملControl Mechanisms for the Growth of Isolated Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanofibers
Isolated vertically aligned carbon nanofibers (VACNFs) have been grown using dc plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition, and the effects of the growth conditions on VACNF morphology and composition have been determined in substantial detail. The dependence of the growth rate, tip and base diameters, and chemical composition of isolated VACNFs on the growth parameters is described, including t...
متن کاملOptimized Conditions for Catalytic Chemical Vapor Deposition of Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotubes
Here, we have synthesized vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VA-CNTs), using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. Cobalt and ethanol are used as the catalyst and the carbon source, respectively. The effects of ethanol flow rate, thickness of Co catalyst film, and growth time on the properties of the carbon nanotube growth are investigated. The results show that the flow rate of ethanol and...
