CVD synthesis and purification of single-walled carbon nanotubes using silica-supported metal catalyst
We report the growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) from silica aerogel by methane chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Bimetallic Fe/Mo supported by amorphous silica forms nanostructures that are catalytically active at the growth temperature. Despite the flexibility gained by using silica a...
