2010: Oxidation of Filled Carbon Nanotubes inside a Transmission Electron Microscope
Introduction Filled (hybrid) carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been studied intensively since 1993 [1], motivated by the prospect of using their inner chambers to synthesize novel crystals [2], to protect sensitive substances [3] or to tailor the properties of the host carbon shell or the guest material [4]. Recently, it was demonstrated that nanocable-like materials could be used as precursors for ...
متن کاملMultichannel ballistic transport in multiwall carbon nanotubes.
The electric transport properties of an individual vertical multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) were studied in situ at room temperature in a scanning electron microscope chamber. It was found that the single MWCNT has a large current-carrying capacity, and the maximum current can reach 7.27 mA. At the same time, a very low resistance of about 34.4 ohms and a high conductance of about (460-490)G0...
متن کاملMultiwall carbon nanotubes as quantum dots.
We have measured the differential conductance of individual multiwall carbon nanotubes. Coulomb blockade and energy level quantization are observed. The electron levels are nearly fourfold degenerate (including spin) and their evolution in magnetic field (Zeeman splitting) agrees with a g factor of 2. In zero magnetic field the sequential filling of states evolves with spin S according to S = 0...
متن کاملInverse Photoemission Spectroscopy of Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes
Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) were synthesized by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Two different procedures were used to grow MWCNT films roughly, aligned in the direction normal to the SiO2/Si(111) substrate. Inverse Photoemission Spectroscopy measurements, on these samples, show the existence of resonances which could be traced back to a flat graphene sheet. The unoccupied valence band ...
متن کامل1 6 O ct 2 00 1 Electron - electron interaction in multiwall carbon nanotubes ⋆
Magnetic susceptibility χ of pristine and brominated arc-produced sample of multi-wall carbon nanotubes was measured from 4.2 to 400 K. An additional contribution ∆χ(T) to diamagnetic susceptibility χ(T) of carbon nanotubes was found at T < 50 K for both samples. It is shown that ∆χ(T) are dominated by quantum correction to χ for interaction electrons (interaction effects-IE). The IE shows a cr...
