SiC Nanowires Synthesized by Rapidly Heating a Mixture of SiO and Arc-Discharge Plasma Pretreated Carbon Black
نویسندگان
چکیده
SiC nanowires have been synthesized at 1,600 degrees C by using a simple and low-cost method in a high-frequency induction furnace. The commercial SiO powder and the arc-discharge plasma pretreated carbon black were mixed and used as the source materials. The heating-up and reaction time is less than half an hour. It was found that most of the nanowires have core-shell SiC/SiO(2) nanostructures. The nucleation, precipitation, and growth processes were discussed in terms of the oxide-assisted cluster-solid mechanism.

Transmission electron microscopy investigation of substitution reactions from carbon nanotube template to silicon carbide nanowires
Substitution reactions between multiwalled carbon nanotubes and silicon monoxide vapour have been investigated using transmission electron microscopy. Different reactions occurred inside the multiwalled nanotubes and on the nanotube external surfaces, resulting in the formation of silicon carbide nanowires with a core–shell structure. The substitution reaction process and end products are stron...

In this paper, new various morphologies of boron carbide were successfully synthesized using carbon black, activated carbon and boron oxide precursors as well as using cobalt nanoparticles as catalysts. Almost the whole morphology of synthesized boron carbide are consisted of smooth nanowires and nanobelts. With decreasing the carbon black particles size from 29 nm to 13 nm (29, 23, 17 and 13),...

متن کاملNANO EXPRESS SnO2 Nanowire Arrays and Electrical Properties Synthesized by Fast Heating a Mixture of SnO2 and CNTs Waste Soot
SnO2 nanowire arrays were synthesized by fast heating a mixture of SnO2 and the carbon nanotubes waste soot by high-frequency induction heating. The resultant SnO2 nanowires possess diameters from 50 to 100 nm and lengths up to tens of mircrometers. The field-effect transistors based on single SnO2 nanowire exhibit that as-synthesized nanowires have better transistor performance in terms of tra...
