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. 相似文献

We demonstrate the validity of very simple methods for site-controlled carbon nanotube growth using a radio-frequency magnetron-type plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique. Enhanced plasma density and optimized ion-bombardment energy achieved by magnetic field introduction are found to be responsible for the uniform and well-aligned carbon nanotube growth. Based on these results, we attempted to perform experiments on site-controlled carbon nanotube growth using very convenient methods such as scratching or simply masking a substrate surface where carbonaceous materials deposit.

Spray pyrolysis chemical vapor deposition (CVD) in the absence of hydrogen at low carrier gas flow rates has been used for the growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). A parametric study of the carbon nanotube growth has been conducted by optimizing various parameters such as temperature, injection speed, precursor volume, and catalyst concentration. Experimental observations and characterizations reveal that the growth rate, size and quality of the carbon nanotubes are significantly dependent on the reaction parameters. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy techniques were employed to characterize the morphology, structure and crystallinity of the carbon nanotubes. The synthesis process can be applied to both semiconducting silicon wafer and conducting substrates such as carbon microfibers and stainless steel plates. This approach promises great potential in building various nanodevices with different electron conducting requirements. In addition, the absence of hydrogen as a carrier gas and the relatively low synthesis temperature (typically 750 °C) qualify the spray pyrolysis CVD method as a safe and easy way to scale up the CNT growth, which is applicable in industrial production. 相似文献

Synthesis of pyrolytic carbon as a matrix for carbon fiber reinforced carbon composites by chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) is studied experimentally and numerically using the oxygen-containing precursor ethanol. The effects of residence time on microstructure and deposition rate of pyrolytic carbon are investigated. A short residence time is found to favor the formation of high-textured pyrolytic carbon. The evolutions of microstructure and deposition rate of pyrolytic carbon are compared with those of carbon deposited from methane. Compared to methane, ethanol exhibits a much higher deposition rate of pyrolytic carbon with similar microstructures. Pyrolysis of ethanol is modeled using a two-dimensional flow model coupled with a detailed gas-phase reaction mechanism involving 261 species taking part in 1177 reversible reactions. Reaction rate analysis reveals that C3-hydrocarbons are the most important intermediate species contributing to the maturation of gas-phase composition. A comparison of the kinetic predictions with equilibrium calculations demonstrates that the CVD reactor applied is operated far away from equilibrium. 相似文献

Carbon nanotube (CNT) yarns are fabricated by drawing (combined with spinning) from CNT forests and grown on a substrate. Three types of phenomena occur in these CNT yarns with increasing amounts of current: yarn rotation, catalyst evaporation, and breakage of the yarn. These phenomena result from the resistive heating occurring during the current flow, and have been observed in situ under vacuum by transmission electron microscopy. If these CNT yarns are applied to electronic circuits, the rotation and breakage may lead to circuit failure. However, catalyst evaporation is a useful method for purifying CNT yarns without additional treatments prior to yarn fabrication. 相似文献

Dot array and line patterns of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were successfully grown by laser-induced chemical vapor deposition (LCVD) on a transparent substrate at room temperature. In the proposed technique, a Nd:YVO4 laser with a wavelength of 532 nm irradiates the backside of multiple catalyst layers (Ni/Al/Cr) through a transparent substrate to induce a local temperature rise, thereby allowing the direct writing of dense dot and line patterns of MWCNTs below 10 μm in size to be produced with uniform density on the controlled positions. In this LCVD method, a multiple-catalyst-layer with a Cr thermal layer is the central component for enabling the growth of dense MWCNTs with good spatial resolution. 相似文献

The effect of temperature on growth and structure of carbon nanotubes (NTs) using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) has been
investigated. Iron embedded silica was used to grow NTs in large quantity at various temperatures from 600 to 1050 °C with
gas pressure fixed at 0.6 and 760 Torr, respectively. The growth and structure of the NTs are strongly affected by the temperature.
At low gas pressure, the NTs are completely hollow at low temperature and bamboo-like structure at high temperature. While
at high gas pressure, all the NTs are bamboo-like structure regardless of temperature. The diameter of NTs increases significantly
with temperature. At low gas pressure the diameter gets bigger by mainly increasing the number of graphene layers of the wall
of NTs, whereas at high gas pressure the diameter gets bigger by increasing both the number of graphene layers of the wall
and the inner diameter of the NTs. This result indicates that the growth temperature is crucial in synthesizing NTs with different
structures. The findings here are important for realizing controlled growth of NTs for their applications in different fields.

Laser chemical vapor deposition (LCVD) utilizes a laser to localize a CVD reaction. The process involves complex physical
interactions within a very small spatial region. Experimental investigations into the dynamics of the LCVD process are limited
by spatial and resolution capabilities of instrumentation. Models are developed herein using the computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) code, FLUENT, that incorporate heat transfer, fluid flow, and species transport in a single integrated modeling environment.
The models are used to study the carbon deposition process. Insight is gained into the relationships among the process parameters
and the deposition rates and deposition rate profiles. Phenomena such as thermal diffusion and the relative importance of
mass convection and mass diffusion are explored. A designed set of model cases is executed and the results are used to develop
a simple polynomial expression for relating experiment conditions to deposit attributes.

We report on the controllable growth of individual, uniform carbon nanotubes using thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD). We performed a detailed study of the various factors influencing the growth of single nanotubes. In particular, we investigated the role played by catalyst layer thickness, catalyst dot size, deposition temperature, and gas source pressure on the growth process of straight, single nanotubes. Straight, individual nanotubes with uniform diameter can be obtained by decomposition of 0.1 mbar of acetylene at a temperature of 800 °C over a 5 nm thick nickel film that is patterned into square dots with dimensions below 500 nm. We compare the performance of thermal CVD and of plasma enhanced CVD for growing individual nanotubes. 相似文献

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. 相似文献

Carbon nanomaterial especially carbon nanotube (CNT) possesses remarkably significant achievements towards the development of sustainable energy storage applications. This article reviews aligned CNTs grown from chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique as electrode material in batteries and electrochemical capacitors. As compared to the entangled CNTs, aligned or well-organized CNTs have advantages in specific surface area and ion accessibility in which more electrolyte ions can access to CNT surfaces for better charge storage performance. CVD known as the most popular technique to produce CNTs enables the use of various substrates and CNT can grow in a variety of forms, such as powder, films, aligned or entangled. Also, CVD is a simple and economic technique, and has good controllability of direction and CNT dimension. High purity of as-grown CNTs is also another beauty of the CVD technique. The current trend and performance of devices utilizing CNTs as electrode material is also extensively discussed. 相似文献

Efficient conversion of waste plastics into advanced materials is of conspicuous environmental, social and economic benefits.
A coupled process of plastic pyrolysis and chemical vapor deposition for vertically aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) array growth
was proposed. Various kinds of plastics, such as polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyvinyl chloride, were used as carbon
sources for the controllable growth of CNT arrays. The relationship between the length of CNT arrays and the growth time was
investigated. It was found that the length of aligned CNTs increased with prolonged growth time. CNT arrays with a length
of 500 μm were obtained for a 40-min growth and the average growth rate was estimated to be 12 μm/min. The diameter of CNTs
in the arrays can be modulated by controlling the growth temperature and the feeding rate of ferrocene. In addition, substrates
with larger specific surface area such as ceramic spheres, quartz fibers, and quartz particles, were adopted to support the
growth of CNT arrays. Those results provide strong evidence for the feasibility of conversion from waste plastics into CNT
arrays via this reported sustainable materials processing. 相似文献

Assuming a reemission model, we have studied, in detail, the effect of sticking coefficient on the morphology evolution in low-pressure chemical vapor deposition processes. We have shown that the surface morphology changes from a self-affine fractal to a columnarlike morphology with increasing sticking coefficient, which agrees qualitatively with experimental observations. 相似文献

The initial stages of growth of films and coatings by chemical vapor deposition are investigated. A system of equations is
derived which describes the evolution of an island film at the stage of Ostwald ripening under conditions characteristic of
vapor deposition. Solving this system of equations yields the dependence of all of the main characteristics of island films
(the size distribution function of the islands, the dependence of the mean radius and density of the islands) as functions
of time and the spatial coordinate. Suggestions are given for the preparation of films with prescribed properties.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are classified among the most promising novel materials due to their exceptional physical properties. Still, optimal fabrication of carbon nanotubes involves a number of challenges. Whatever be the fabrication method, a process optimization can be evolved only on the basis of a good theoretical model to predict the parametric influences on the final product. The work reported here investigates the dependence of the deposition parameters on the controllable parameters for carbon nanotube growth during Chemical vapor deposition (CVD), through a chemical kinetic model. The theoretical model consisted of the design equations and the energy balance equations, based on the reaction kinetics, for the plug flow and the batch reactor, which simulate the CVD system. The numerical simulation code was developed in-house in a g++ environment. The results predicted the growth conditions for CNT: the deposition temperature, pressure and number of atoms, which were found to be influenced substantially by the initial controllable parameters namely the temperature, volumetric flow rate of the carbon precursor, and the reaction time. An experimental study was also conducted on a CVD system developed in the laboratory, to benchmark the computational results. The experimental results were found to agree well with the theoretical predictions obtained from the model. 相似文献

Thiophene was introduced as an additive in detonation-assisted chemical vapor deposition to investigate the effect of sulfur on the growth of carbon nanotubes. The results reveal that sulfur promoted the growth of hollow tubes, instead of bamboo-like carbon nanotubes without sulfur addition. Structural characterization of products indicates that the dynamic reshaping of the catalyst assisted bamboo-like carbon nanotube growth and the bamboo knots preferentially nucleated on the Ni-graphite step edges. It is suggested that sulfur suppressed the bamboo knot growth through blocking the step sites. The findings are important for understanding of nanotube growth mechanism and the role of sulfur often involved in catalytic reactions. 相似文献

Two and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) carbon nanoflowers have been prepared on silicon (1 1 1) substrates by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition, using CH4, H2 and Ar as reactive gases in the presence of Fe catalyst. The flower patterns are controlled by the flux ratio of the carrier gas, the reaction pressure and the growth temperature. Through observation by scanning electron microscopy, we find that the 2D carbon nanoflowers are formed by various nanoleaves while the 3D flowers are composed of hundreds of nanofibers. The former is related closely to the flux ratio of gas and the reaction pressure, while the latter depended mainly on the growth temperature. The nucleation and growth process of the nanoflowers seem to be a vapor/liquid/solid mechanism. 相似文献
