Metal and alloy nanowires: Iron and invar inside carbon nanotubes
Pyrolysis of hydrocarbons over metal catalysts has proved to be a very efficient and versatile technique for generating metal-filled carbon nanotubes. At reduced pressures Fe-filled nanotubes are formed efficiently from ferrocene and C-60. Recently, alloys such as invar (Fe65Ni35) were successfully...
