A novel sensor consisting of nitrogen-doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes was fabricated by means of chemical vapor deposition technique with decomposition of acetonitrile onto oxidized silicon wafer using ferrocene as catalyst. The electrochemical response of carbon nanotubes-based sensor towards oxidation of paracetamol to N-acetyl-p-quinone imine was investigated in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) by means of standard electrochemical techniques. A quasi-reversible response for oxidation of paracetamol was identified on carbon nanotubes-based sensor with detection limit and sensitivity of 0.485 μM and 0.8406 A M?1 cm?2, respectively. It was found that the nitrogen doping in carbon nanotubes enhances the sensor's detection ability. Namely, electrochemical studies performed on film consisting of pristine carbon nanotubes reveal as well quasi-reversible response towards oxidation of paracetamol but nevertheless poorer detection ability and sensitivity (0.950 μM; 0.601 A M?1 cm?2). The findings strongly suggest the application of nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes in biosensing.  相似文献

In this paper, we mainly studied the preparation of platinum-containing composite materials with carbon nanotubes wrapped by polypyrimidine-conjugated polymers and the performance of the composites. The polymer-based carbon nanotubes/Pt catalysts were prepared successfully and confirmed by infrared spectroscopy, XPS, XRD, and TEM images. The performance of polypyrimidine/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/Pt and polypyrimidine/double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs)/Pt was compared with the polypyrimidine/single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs)/Pt. The amount of the loaded Pt on the polypyrimidine/MWCNTs and polypyrimidine/DWCNTs was calculated to be 50.5 wt% and 52.7 wt% respectively. The effective specific surface area of the polypyrimidine/MWCNTs/Pt (45.7 m2/g) and polypyrimidine/DWCNTs/Pt (42.47 m2/g) was observed by electrochemical cyclic voltammetry. These studies strongly imply that the MWCNTs were better candidates than DWCNTs and SWCNTs in the application of polypyrimidine/CNT materials as catalyst for fuel cells.  相似文献

Nitrogen doping of vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs) using plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition has been investigated to improve the supercapacitance performance of CNTs. Incorporating electrochemical measurements on the open-ended nitrogen-doped CNTs, showed the achievement of 6 times improvement in the capacitance value. For nitrogen-doped CNTs on silicon substrate, specific capacitance of 60 F g?1 was obtained in 0.5 M KCl solution, with capacity retention ratio above 90 % after cycled at 0.1 A g?1 for 5000 cycles. Using this sample, a symmetric supercapacitance was fabricated which showed the power density of 37.5 kW kg?1. The facile fabrication approach and its excellent capacitance improvement, propose it as an efficient technique for enhancing the supercapacitance performance of the carbon-based electrodes.  相似文献

In the present research paper, phonons in graphene sheet have been calculated by constructing a dynamical matrix using the force constants derived from the second-generation reactive empirical bond order potential by Brenner and co-workers. Our results are comparable to inelastic X-ray scattering as well as first principle calculations. At Γ point, for graphene, the optical modes (degenerate) lie near 1685 cm???1. The frequency regimes are easily distinguishable. The low-frequency (ω→ 0) modes are derived from acoustic branches of the sheet. The radial modes can be identified with ω→ 584 cm???1. High-frequency regime is above 1200 cm???1 (i.e. ZO mode) and consists of TO and LO modes. The phonons in a nanotube can be derived from zone folding method using phonons of a single layer of the hexagonal sheet. The present work aims to explore the agreement between theory and experiment. A better knowledge of the phonon dispersion of graphene is highly desirable to model and understand the properties of carbon nanotubes. The development and production of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for possible applications need reliable and quick analytical characterization. Our results may serve as an accurate tool for the spectroscopic determination of the tube radii and chiralities.  相似文献

Physical processes in laser–matter interaction used to be determined by generation of fast electrons resulting from efficient conversion of the absorbed laser radiation. Composite materials offer the possibility to control the absorption by choice of the host material and dopants. Reported here strong absorption of ultrashort laser pulse in a composite carbon-based nanomaterial including single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) or multilayer graphene was measured in the intensity range between 1012 and 1016 W cm?2. A protein (lysozyme) was used as the host. The maximum absorption of femtosecond laser pulse has reached 92–96 %. The optical damage thresholds of the coatings were registered at an intensity of (1.1 ± 0.5) × 1013 W cm?2 for the embedded SWCNTs and at (3.4 ± 0.3) × 1013 W cm?2 for the embedded graphene. Encapsulated variant of the dispersed nanomaterial was investigated as well. It was found that supernatant protein in the coating material tends to dominate the absorption process, independently of the embedded nanomaterial. The opposite was observed for the encapsulated material.  相似文献

A flexible Co3O4 hollow microsphere/graphene/carbon nanotube hybrid film is successfully prepared through a facile filtration strategy and a subsequent thermally treated process. The composition, morphology, and structure of the as-prepared film are characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Based on the morphology characterizations on the hybrid film, the Co3O4 hollow microspheres are uniformly and closely attached on three-dimensional (3D) graphene/carbon nanotubes (GR/CNTs) network, which decreases the agglomeration of Co3O4 microspheres effectively. In this hybrid film, the 3D GR/CNT network which enhances conductance as well as prevents aggregation is a benefit to help Co3O4 to exert its lithium storage capabilities sufficiently. When used as a binder-free anode material for lithium-ion batteries, the hybrid film delivers excellent electrochemical properties involving reversible capacity (863 mAh g?1 at a current density of 100 mA g?1) and rate performance (185 mAh g?1 at a current density of 1600 mA g?1).  相似文献

The field electron emission of carbon nanotubes has been heavily studied over the past two decades for various applications, such as in display technologies, microwave amplifiers, and spacecraft propulsion. However, a commercializable lightweight and internally gated electron source has yet to be realized. This work presents the fabrication and testing of a novel internally gated carbon nanotube field electron emitter. Several specific methods are used to prevent electrical shorting of the gate layer, a common failure for internally gated devices. A unique design is explored where the etch pits extend into the silicon substrate and isotropic etching is used to create a lateral buffer zone between the gate and carbon nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes are self-aligned to and within 10 microns from the gate, which creates large electric fields at low potential inputs. Initial tests confirm high field emission performance with an anode current density (based on total area of the device) of 293 μA?cm?2 and a gate current density of 1.68 mA?cm?2 at 250 V.  相似文献

In this work, first multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with outer diameter about 20–30 nm are synthesized by a CVD method; they have been purified and functionalized with a two-step process. The approach consists of thermal oxidation and subsequent chemical oxidation. Then, monosize FePt nanoparticles along carbon nanotubes surface are synthesized by a Polyol process. The synthesized FePt nanoparticles are about 2.5 nm in size and they have superparamagnetic behavior with fcc structure. The CNTs surfaces as a substrate prevent the coalescence of particles during thermal annealing. Annealing at the temperature higher than 600 °C for 2 h under a reducing atmosphere (90 % Ar + 10 % H2) leads to phase transition from fcc to fct-L10 structure. So, the magnetic behavior changes from the superparamagnetic to the ferromagnetic. Furthermore, after the phase transition, the FePt nanoparticles have finite size with an average of about 3.5 nm and the coercivity of particles reaches 5.1 kOe.  相似文献

Abstract

The electronic transport properties of Dirac fermions in chemical vapour-deposited single-layer epitaxial graphene on anSiO2/Si substrate have been investigated using the Shubnikov–de Haas (SdH) oscillations technique. The magnetoresistance measurements were performed in the temperature range between 1.8 and 43 K and at magnetic fields up to 11 T. The 2D carrier density and the Fermi energy have been determined from the period of the SdH oscillations. In addition, the in-plane effective mass as well as the quantum lifetime of 2D carriers have been calculated from the temperature and magnetic field dependences of the SdH oscillation amplitude. The sheet carrier density (1.42 × 1013 cm?2 at 1.8 K), obtained from the low-field Hall Effect measurements, is larger than that of 2D carrier density (8.13 × 1012 cm?2). On the other hand, the magnetoresistance includes strong magnetic field dependent positive, non-oscillatory background magnetoresistance. The strong magnetic field dependence of the magnetoresistance and the differences between sheet carrier and 2D carrier density can be attributed to the 3D carriers between the graphene sheet and the SiO2/Si substrate.  相似文献

In this work, vertically aligned α-MnO2 nanosheets on carbon nanotubes are synthesized simply by a solution process and the electrochemical performance as host materials of magnesium ion is tested in aqueous solution. Cyclic voltammetry analysis confirms the enhanced electrochemical activity of carbon nanotube-supported samples. Moreover, carbon nanotubes skeleton could reduce the charge transfer resistant of the cathode materials, which is confirmed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Furthermore, when tested as magnesium ion batteries cathodic electrode, the α-MnO2/carbon nanotube sample registers a prominent discharge capacity of 144.6 mAh g?1 at current density of 0.5 A g?1, which is higher than the discharge capacity of α-MnO2 (87.5 mAh g?1) due to the synergistic effect of insertion/deinsertion reaction and physical adsorption/desorption process. After the 1000th cycle, a remarkable discharge capacity of 48.3 mAh g?1 is collected for α-MnO2/carbon nanotube at current density of 10 A g?1, which is 85% of the original. It is found that the carbon skeleton not only improved the capacity but also enhanced the cycling performance of the α-MnO2 electrode significantly. Therefore, α-MnO2/carbon nanotube is a very promising candidate for further application in environmentally benign magnesium ion batteries.  相似文献

Graphene oxide–carbon nanotubes hybrids were prepared by using methylene diphenyl diisocyanate as a bridging agent. The as-prepared hybrids were introduced in phenol formaldehyde resin to fabricate polymer-based composites. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electrical microscopy, and X-ray diffraction were performed to characterize the functional groups, morphologies, and crystal structure of the as-prepared hybrids, respectively. The experimental results showed that the carbon nanotubes were loaded on the surfaces of the graphene oxide and they were held together through chemical bonds. Moreover, the as-prepared hybrids could improve the mechanical properties of the matrix. When the as-prepared hybrids loading was 0.6 wt%, the tensile strength, Young's modulus, and elongation at break of the composites were 31.3%, 97.0%, and 75.0% more than the pure sample; in addition, the compression strength and modulus of the composites were 19.7% and 21.3% more than the pure sample, respectively.  相似文献

Under an aid of ultrasonic, tetraoxalyl ethylenediamine melamine resin-coated multiwalled carbon nanotubes were prepared for Ni(II) sensing in aqueous solution. The processes involved the fabrication of tetraoxalyl ethylenediamine melamine resin by one pot way, the coating of tetraoxalyl ethylenediamine melamine resin at multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), and the determination of Ni(II). The present materials were carefully examined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscope, and electrochemistry techniques. A great deal of amorphous microsphere could be observed for tetraoxalyl ethylenediamine melamine resin with an average diameter of 1.2 μm, and MTE could evenly adhere at the surface of MWCNTs by the ultrasonic. Tetraoxalyl ethylenediamine melamine resin-coated multiwalled carbon nanotube-modified paraffin-impregnated graphite electrode was successfully used for the determination of Ni(II) by differential pulse adsorptive anodic stripping voltammetry. The current responses (?0.3 V) were linearly increased depending on the concentration from 1?×?10?11 to 3?×?10?10 M (i (μA)?=?11.1?+?7.9 c (1?×?10?12 M); R?=?0.9901, 3σ?=?7?×?10?12 M).  相似文献

Artemisinin regarded as one of the most promising anticancer drugs can bind to DNA with a binding constant of 1.04 × 104 M−1. The electrochemical experiments indicated that for longer incubation time periods, the reduction peak current of artemisinin on carbon nanotube modified electrode increases. Therefore, the uptake of drug molecules from a solution into CNTs will be achieved automatically by adsorption of 88.7% of artemisinin onto carbon nanotubes surface without alteration in drug properties. Hence, capability of carbon nanotubes to have synergistic effect on the bioavailability of artemisinin was investigated. Experimental tests on K562 cancer cell lines growth by MTT assay proved that multi-walled carbon nanotubes can enhance the cytotoxity of artemisinin to the targeted cancer cells with unprecedented accuracy and efficiency. The IC50 values were 65 and 35 μM for artemisinin and artemisinin loaded on multi-walled carbon nanotubes, respectively; demonstrating that artemisinin loaded on multi-walled carbon nanotubes is more effective in inhibition of cancer cell lines growth.  相似文献

In this work, the commercial carbon paper was firstly peeled in K2CO3 solution and then was further treated in a KNO3 solution to form functional exfoliation graphene (FEG) on the commercial carbon paper. The FEG/carbon paper was characterized by Raman spectra and scanning electron microscopy, confirming that some typical layered fold graphenes were successfully peeled off and stood on the carbon paper matrix. Then, Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) were grown on the surface of FEG/carbon paper and the as-prepared Fe3O4 NPs/FEG/carbon paper was directly used as supercapacitor electrode. The specific capacitance of Fe3O4 NPs/FEG/carbon paper was about 316.07 F g?1 at a current density of 1 A g?1. Furthermore, the FEG/carbon papers were also functionalized by benzene carboxylic acid to form FFEG/carbon papers, and then the Fe3O4 NPs were grown on the surface of FFEG/carbon paper. The specific capacitance of Fe3O4 NPs/FFEG/carbon paper was 470 F g?1 at a current density of 1 A g?1, superior to some previous reported results. This work might provide a new strategy to prepare various nanostructures on FFEG/carbon papers for future applications.  相似文献

This work deals about the development of paper-based fuel cells with high open-circuit voltages for application in powering the micro-nanosystems such as bio-sensors. The developed fuel cell employs Whatman paper as the ion conductor placed between the anode and the cathode to replace expensive ion-conducting membranes such as Nafion. A maximum open-circuit voltage of ~2.1 V per single cell and a power output of ~4.5 mW cm?2 at ~6 mA cm?2 are obtained when employing 1 M NaBH4 in 20 wt% NaOH solution and 1 M VO2 + in 2.5 M H2SO4 solution. Chronoamperometric measurement performed at 1 V indicates that the output power density varies from 6 to 1 mW cm?2 in about 100 min. The power delivered at the end of even 100 min is comparable to that of the peak power delivered by many of the micro-fuel cell systems reported in the literature.  相似文献

A modified glassy carbon electrode has been constructed using a 1-benzyl-4-ferrocenyl-1H-[1,2,3]-triazole along with multiwalled carbon nanotubes. The electrochemical behaviour of modified electrode has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry. Electrocatalytic activity of the modified electrode was investigated for the oxidation of hydroxylamine in 0.1 M phosphate-buffered solution of pH 8. The modified electrode showed electrocatalytic response to the oxidation of hydroxylamine at the potential of 330 mV. The linear range and detection limit for the detection of hydroxylamine in the optimum condition were found to be 4.0?×?10?7 to 6.75?×?10?4 M and 28.0?±?1.0 nM, respectively. Finally, the method was employed for the determination of hydroxylamine in water samples.  相似文献

Vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs) were synthesized over copper substrate. The diameter and length of the CNTs were 100 nm and 2–3 μm, respectively. Synthesis of CNTs was confirmed by Raman spectrum and verified by TEM as multi walled CNTs. SEM images showed the vertically aligned CNTs over Cu substrate. Strengthening of CNTs was performed by filling with Cu and SU-8 epoxy sealant in gap between the CNTs. The observed density was high for epoxy sealed CNTs. The bending ability of CNTs was checked and observed as low for epoxy sealed CNTs. The thermal resistance of the samples was measured by JESD51-2 standard for various loads. The observed resistance was low (0.277 cm2?K/W) for epoxy sealed CNTs at 1100 kPa. The calculated resistance of CNTs alone was 0.097 cm2?K/W for epoxy sealed at 900 kPa.  相似文献

A voltammetric sensor for the determination of carbendazim was developed at a glassy carbon electrode modified with a hybrid nanomaterial (graphene oxide–multi-walled nanotubes/glassy carbon (GO–MWNTs/GC)). Its surface electrochemical property was studied with UV–Vis spectroscopy, TEM analysis, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The electrochemical behavior of carbendazim was investigated on the modified electrode with cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The influence of modifier dosage, buffer solution, pH, accumulation time, and scan rates on the determination was discussed. The results indicated that the reaction of carbendazim on the electrode was controlled by diffusion and was an irreversible process with two electrons. The effective area of GO–MWNTs/GC, anodic transfer coefficient, and apparent diffusion coefficient were calculated. The anodic peak current of carbendazim was linear with the concentration of carbendazim from 10 nM to 4 μM with a detection limit of 5 nM (S/N?=?3). The proposed sensor was successfully applied to the determination of carbendazim in soil and tap water.  相似文献

A polyarylate (PAR) substrate was first prepared by hot pressing and then carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were coated on its surface by a low-temperature spraying method. In order to eliminate the residual stress and enhance the adhesive ability between the substrate and the coated CNT layer, an optimal thermo-permeating process is proposed. The relationship between the thickness of the permeating layer and the residual stress of coating layers was investigated. Triple-layer structure models were provided to evaluate the residual stress of coating layers. The experimental results show that if the sample was treated by the optimal thermo-permeating process, its residual stress was dramatically reduced from 1.7×103 MPa to 0.45 Pa; meanwhile, its adhesive ability was intensively enhanced from 1B to 5B according to ASTM D3359 adhesion classifications.  相似文献
