Lattice fringe signatures of epitaxy on nanotubes
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider ways to determine the crystallographic direction of particles on carbon nanotubes, where possible from a single lattice fringe image. In our experiment, we use a Philip EM430 TEM with point resolution near 0.2nm to image Pt nanoparticles on carbon nanotubes provided by Chad Xing of UM-Rolla. We have known that Pt is a face-centered cubic (FCC) element. According to the Pt and nanotube fringes, we can understand the distribution of Pt fringes along carbon nanotubes.

Various methods to grow high quality and perfectly arranged ZnO nanorods have been reported over the recent years (see, e.g., [1, 2] and references therein). However, due to the material properties of ZnO and its related compounds, there are many restrictions in designing more complex heterostructures or even devices based on such nanorods. In particular p-type doping of ZnO is still a big, yet...

Torsional dynamic analysis of carbon nanotubes under the effect of longitudinal magnetic field is carried out in the present study. Torque effect of an axial magnetic field on a carbon nanotube has been defined using Maxwell’s relation. Nonlocal governing equation and boundary conditions for carbon nanotubes are obtained by using Hamilton’s minimum energy principle. Eringen’s nonlocal stress gr...
