Advances in the synthesis and scalable manufacturing of single-walled carbon nanotubes
(SWCNTs) remain critical to realizing many important commercial applications. Here we …

Due to its higher degree of control and its scalability, catalytic chemical vapour deposition is
now the prevailing synthesis method of carbon nanotubes. Catalytic chemical vapour …

Tremendous progress has been achieved during the past 20 years on not only improving
the yields of carbon nanotubes and move progressively towards their mass production, but …

We have grown vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotube forests with an area
density of 1.5× 1013 cm–2, the highest yet achieved, by reducing the average diameter of …

Coatings comprising carbon nanotubes are very black, that is, characterized by uniformly
low reflectance over a broad range of wavelengths from the visible to far infrared. Arguably …

Understanding the population growth behavior of filamentary nanostructures, such as
carbon nanotubes (CNTs), is hampered by the lack of characterization techniques capable …

Abstract Record-long (21.7 mm) vertically aligned MWNT arrays were synthesized using
water-assisted thermal CVD process. The catalyst lifetime was maintained for 790 min at …

Here we show that essentially any Fe compounds spanning Fe salts, nanoparticles, and
buckyferrocene could serve as catalysts for single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) forest …

Carbon nanotube synthesis using flame has enormous potential for large scale carbon
nanotubes production. Carbon-rich and autothermal conditions within the flame environment …

Carbon nanomaterials play an essential role in resolving the increasingly urgent energy and
environmental crises. A unique type of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), vertically aligned CNTs …
