Aligned growth and alignment mechanism of carbon nanotubes by hot filament chemical vapor deposition

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) growth on Inconel sheets was carried out using hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD) in a gas mixture of methane and hydrogen. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and field electron emission (FEE) measurement were applied to study the structure and FEE properties of the deposited CNTs. The effect of bias voltage and substrate surface roughness on the growth of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes was investigated. Well-aligned CNTs were synthesized by bias enhanced HFCVD. The results show that a bias of −500 V generates the best alignment. It has been observed that at the early growth stage, aligned and non-aligned CNTs are growing simultaneously on the unscratched sheets, whereas only aligned CNTs are growing on the scratched sheets. The results indicate that tip growth is not necessary for the electric field to align the CNTs, and larger catalyst particles created by scratching before the heat treatment can induce alignment of CNTs at the early growth stage. In addition, tree-like CNTs bundles grown on the scratched substrates exhibit better FEE performances than dense carbon nanotube forest grown on the unscratched substrates due to the reduced screen effect.     

Effect of nickel,iron and cobalt on growth of aligned carbon nanotubes

The effect of pure nickel, iron and cobalt on growth of aligned carbon nanotubes was systematically studied by plasma-enhanced hot-filament chemical vapor deposition. It is found that the catalyst has a strong effect on the nanotube diameter, growth rate, wall thickness, morphology and microstructure. Ni yields the highest growth rate, largest diameter and thickest wall, whereas Co results in the lowest growth rate, smallest diameter and thinnest wall. The carbon nanotubes catalyzed by Ni have the best alignment and the smoothest and cleanest wall surface, whereas those from Co are covered with amorphous carbon and nanoparticles on the outer surface. The carbon nanotubes produced from Ni catalyst also exhibit a reasonably good graphitization. Therefore, Ni is considered as the most suitable catalyst for growth of aligned carbon nanotubes.

Integration and characterization of aligned carbon nanotubes on metal/silicon substrates and effects of water

We report here a facile way to grow aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on various metal (e.g. gold, tungsten, vanadium and copper)/silicon electrically conductive substrates by aerosol-assisted chemical vapor deposition (AACVD). Without using any buffer layers, integration of high quality MWCNTs to the conductive substrates has been achieved by introducing appropriate amount of water vapor into the growth system. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) determination indicate tidy morphology and narrow diameter distribution of the nanotubes as well as promising growth rate suitable for industrial applications. Raman spectra analysis illustrates that the structural order and purity of the nanotubes are significantly improved in the presence of water vapor. The growth mechanism of the nanotubes has been discussed. It is believed that water vapor plays a key role in the catalyst-substrate interaction and nucleation of the carbon nanotubes on the conductive substrates. This synthesis approach is expected to be extended to other catalyst-conductive substrate systems and provide some new insight in the direct integration of carbon nanotubes onto conductive substrates, which promises great potential for applications in electrical interconnects, contacts for field emitters, and other electronic nanodevices.

Enhancement of carbon nanotube growth yield on Inconel 600 substrates through the surface pretreatments combining thermal annealing and plasma ion bombardment

We report the drastic growth yield enhancement of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on Inconel 600 metal substrate which contains catalytic components through the surface pretreatments combining thermal annealing and plasma ion bombardment. We comparatively investigated the effect of different substrate pretreatments of air annealing, plasma treatment, and their combination affecting CNT growth yield. The roughness of the substrates was significantly enhanced by the air annealing at 725 °C but reduced after the following plasma treatment, which produce nano-sized particle structures. Finally, a significant enhancement in the CNT growth yield was observed when the Inconel 600 substrate was undergone the pretreatment, which consists of oxidative annealing and subsequent plasma treatment.     

Stimulation of the local growth of aligned carbon nanotubes by pulse laser exposure of the substrate

The local stimulation of carbon nanotubes (CNT) growth at the laser-modified sites that have been obtained by excimer laser irradiation at 248 nm causing a local surface modification has been investigated by two different processing methods. The influence of the laser processing parameters on the CNT growth is compared for the irradiation of thin spin-coated iron nitrate films on silicon substrates and the backside irradiation of a fused silica substrate being in contact with an iron nitrate solution. Both techniques cause the formation of catalytic surface sites either by decomposition of the film or by deposition from the solution. For both laser modification approaches the local growth of vertical aligned nanotubes has been observed. In the case of spin-coated film the laser irradiation conditions have only a small influence on the CNT growth whereas at backside modification by means of a solution a strong dependence on the laser processing parameters has been found.     

Silicon enhanced carbon nanotube growth on nickel films by chemical vapor deposition

Silicon enhances carbon nanotube growth on nickel films by chemical vapor deposition using methane and hydrogen. Nanotube growth characteristic is significantly improved on nickel films patterned by argon plasma etching on silicon oxide layers. Auger electron spectroscopy shows that a reduced silicon phase forms in the surface silicon oxide layer by Ar ion bombardment used for patterning. The enhanced growth of carbon nanotubes could be ascribed to an oxygen removal effect by silicon in the process of synthesis.

Effects of total CH4/Ar gas pressure on the structures and field electron emission properties of carbon nanomaterials grown by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition

The effects of total CH₄/Ar gas pressure on the growth of carbon nanomaterials on Si (1 0 0) substrate covered with CoO nanoparticles, using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), were investigated. The structures of obtained products were correlated with the total gas pressure and changed from pure carbon nanotubes (CNTs) through hybrid CNTs/graphene sheets (GSs), to pure GSs as the total gas pressure changed from 20 to 4 Torr. The total gas pressure influenced the density of hydrogen radicals and Ar ions in chamber, which in turn determined the degree of how CoO nanoparticles were deoxidized and ion bombardment energy that governed the final carbon nanomaterials. Moreover, the obtained hybrid CNTs/GSs exhibited a lower turn-on field (1.4 V/μm) emission, compared to either 2.7 V/μm for pure CNTs or 2.2 V/μm for pure GSs, at current density of 10 μA/cm².
