Low-temperature single-wall carbon nanotubes synthesis: feedstock decomposition limited growth.
We report on the lowest temperature of SWCNT growth using endothermic decomposition of CH4 gas on a specially activated alumina-supported Fe:Mo catalyst. However, the observed lowest growth temperature (560 degrees C) is higher than that reported previously for exothermic feedstock type. Our observation indicates that the decomposition threshold temperature of the feedstock limits the SWCNT gro...
متن کاملLow Temperature Specific Heat of Single-wall Carbon Nanotubes
Previous Cp experiment [1] gave first evidence for 1D quantum confinement of vibrational modes in SWNT, crossing over to 3-D behaviour at very low T where tubetube interactions become important. These measurements were limited to 2 K. The data did not follow a linear extrapolation to T = 0, which provided a strong motivation to extend the measurement to mK regime. Here we report the first data ...
متن کاملA Temperature Window for Chemical Vapor Decomposition Growth of Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes
Carbon single-wall nanotubes (SWNTs) grow efficiently from methane on alumina-supported metal catalysts within a fairly narrow temperature window from 680 to 850 °C. An abrupt onset in SWNT growth occurs at the low temperature side of the window, and SWNTs produced at these lower temperatures appear to be relatively free of amorphous or nanocrystalline carbon impurities. Raman spectroscopy show...
متن کاملDisorder limited exciton transport in colloidal single-wall carbon nanotubes.
We present measurements of S(1) exciton transport in (6,5) carbon nanotubes at room temperature in a colloidal environment. Exciton diffusion lengths associated with end quenching paired with photoluminescence lifetimes provide a direct basis for determining a median diffusion constant of approximately 7.5 cm(2)s(-1). Our experimental results are compared to model diffusion constants calculated...
متن کاملTemperature-dependent resistivity of single-wall carbon nanotubes
– Samples of single-wall carbon nanotubes containing tubes with an “armchair” wrapping have been produced and exhibit metallic behavior with an intrinsic resistivity which increases approximately linearly with temperature over a wide temperature range. Here we study the coupling of the conduction electrons to long-wavelength torsional shape fluctuations, or twistons. A one-dimensional theory of...
