碳纳米管材料的储锂性能

碳纳米管较低的碳原子密度、管径和管间的空隙可以为锂离子提供大量的嵌入空间,从而拥有更高的储锂能力。本文结合实验与理论研究的最新成果,综述了这一领域的主要进展和前景。实验上,对单壁碳纳米管进行适当处理,可以将锂存储量提高到常规石墨材料的2~3倍。根据密度泛函理论计算,锂在不同碳纳米管束中的最高理论嵌入量可以达到Li0.5C。嵌入后锂和碳纳米管之间发生了完全的电荷转移,碳纳米管的Fermi能级上移到导带中,所有碳纳米管都转变为金属。纳米管自身的电子结构对锂的吸附是至关重要的,缺电子体系更有利于锂的吸附。锂在B掺杂的复合管如BC3纳米管中有很大的吸附能。锂穿透纳米管壁从管壁外进入纳米管内的能垒,随着纳米管壁拓扑缺陷结构的尺寸变大而显著降低,B在纳米管壁的存在会进一步降低锂穿越纳米管壁的能垒。同时B的掺杂会降低相同拓扑缺陷的生成能,导致在BC3纳米管中出现更多的拓扑缺陷,从而有利于锂离子的扩散。实验与理论计算的结合可望加深对锂离子在纳米管材料中嵌入过程的理解,指导设计具有更高储锂性能的新材料。

碳纳米管和碳化硅纳米管热导率的分子动力学研究

采用Tersoff势测试和研究了反向非平衡分子动力学中的Müller-Plathe法和Jund法在一维纳米管热传导中的应用.在相同的模拟步数中,Müller-Plathe法可以得到很好的结果,热导率在交换频率大于50时对参数的选择并不敏感.然而,Jund法并不能得到良好的线性温度梯度,其热导率在一定程度上依赖于选择的热流大小.在此基础上,运用Müller-Plathe法进一步研究了碳纳米管和碳化硅纳米管的长度、直径和温度对热导率的影响.结果表明,无论是碳纳米管还是碳化硅纳米管,其长度、直径和温度对热导率的影响是一致的.只要长度增加,纳米管的热导率相应增大,但增长速率不断降低.直径对热导率的影响很大程度上还取决于温度,在高温时,直径对热导率几乎没有影响.除此之外,纳米管的热导率随着温度的增加总体上也是不断降低的,但峰值现象的出现还受纳米管长度的影响.     

Structural transformation of graphite by arc-discharge

The formation of novel structures by the passage of an electric current through graphite is described. These structures apparently consist of hollow three-dimensional graphitic shells bounded by curved and faceted planes, typically made up of two graphene layers. The curved structures were frequently decorated with nano-scale carbon particles, or short nanotubes. In some cases, nanotubes were found to be seamlessly connected to the thin shells, indicating that the formation of the shells and the nanotubes is intimately connected. Small nanotubes or nanoparticles were also sometimes found encapsulated inside the hollow structures, while fullerene-like particles were often seen attached to the outside surfaces. With their high surface areas and structural perfection, the new carbon structures may have applications as anodes of lithium ion batteries or as components of composite materials.     

Characterization of the radiation from single-walled zig-zag carbon nanotubes at terahertz range

This paper investigates the radiation characteristics of metal single-walled zig-zag carbon nanotubes as a dipole antenna at terahertz wave range. The current distribution, input impedance and mutual impedance are calculated for various geometrical parameters of vertically-aligned carbon nanotubes. The numerical results demonstrate the properties of the antenna depending strongly on the geometrical parameters such as the radius, the lengths of carbon nantobues, and the spacing between nanotubes. It is found that the zig-zag carbon nanotubes exhibit very high input impedance and the mutual impedances for antenna array applications. These unique high impedance properties are different from the conventional metal thin wire antenna. The far-field patterns and gain of antenna array are also calculated. The maximum gain of array of 100-element array is up to 20.0~dB, which is larger than the gain of 0.598~dB of single dipole antenna at distance d = 0.5\lambda .

Morphologies and microstructures of carbon nanotubes prepared by self—sustained arc discharging

We have investigated the morphology and microstructure of carbon nanotubes and nanoparticles in cathode deposits prepared by self-sustained arc discharge. Scanning electron microscopy images indicate that there are two regions exhibiting different morphologies on the top surface of the cathode deposits. In the central region, there is a triangular pattern of spots with a diameter up to 100μm, which consists of carbon nanotubes and nanoparticles. In the fringe region, carbon nanotubes and nanoparticles are distributed randomly. In addition, carbon nanotubes in the central region have a larger inner diameter, compared with those in the fringe region. The outer diameter distribution of tubes in the central region is narrower than that of tubes in the fringe region, while the former has a smaller peak value than the latter. For the nanoparticles, they exhibit a different behaviour from the tubes existing in the same region. The difference between the microstructure of tubes or particles in the two regions is attributed to the different temperatures and temperature gradients during their formation.

Growth of aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes under ac electric fields through floating catalyst chemical vapour deposition

Through floating catalyst chemical vapour deposition(CVD) method,well-aligned isolated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and their bundles were deposited on the metal electrodes patterned on the SiO₂/Si surface under ac electric fields at relatively low temperature(280℃). It was indicated that SWCNTs were effectively aligned under ac electric fields after they had just grown in the furnace.The time for a SWCNT to be aligned in the electric field and the effect of gas flow were estimated. Polarized Raman scattering was performed to characterize the aligned structure of SWCNTs. This method would be very useful for the controlled fabrication and preparation of SWCNTs in practical applications.
