Physisorption of molecular oxygen on single-wall carbon nanotube bundles and graphite
We present a study on the kinetics of oxygen adsorption and desorption from single-wall carbon nanotube ~SWNT! and highly oriented pyrolytic graphite ~HOPG! samples. Thermal-desorption spectra for SWNT samples show a broad desorption feature peaked at 62 K, which is shifted to a significantly higher temperature than the low-coverage desorption feature on HOPG. The low-coverage O2 binding energy...
متن کاملNovel polygonized single-wall carbon nanotube bundles.
We have synthesized novel crystalline ropes of "polygonized" single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The tubes exhibit rounded-hexagonal cross sections in contrast to the earlier observations of nearly circular tubes. To investigate the structural characteristics of the lattice of SWCNTs we have performed extensive molecular-dynamics simulations. We find several metastable structures of the latt...
متن کاملPressure Effects on Single Wall Carbon Nanotube Bundles
We report high pressure Raman studies on single wall carbon nanotube bundles under hydrostatic conditions using two different pressure transmitting media, alcohol mixture and pure water. The radial and tangential modes show a blue shift when SWNT bundle is immersed in the liquids at ambient pressures. The pressure dependence of the radial modes is the same in both liquids. However, the pressure...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulation of polyethylene on single wall carbon nanotube.
Molecular dynamics simulations are carried out on the isothermal crystallization process of single polyethylene chains with different chain lengths on the single wall carbon nanotube. This process is summarized as two steps, i.e., adsorption and orientation, and the bond-orientational order parameter is used to show the details of this process. The results show that the attractive van der Waals...
متن کاملFormation of Single-Wall Carbon Nanotube Superbundles
Since their discovery in 1993,1,2 carbon single-wall nanotubes (SWNTs) have been of great interest because of their expected novel electronic,3 mechanical,4 and gas adsorption properties.5 Difficulties arise in measuring these various properties because the SWNTs currently available for analyses have very small bundle sizes (1020 nm) and are typically in random orientations. A vital step for th...
