Carbon Nanotubes: Controlled Growth of Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotube Networks by Catalyst Interfacial Diffusion (Adv. Mater. Interfaces 4/2014)

Abstract

By tuning the interfacial diffusion within a multilayer catalytic structure, the growth of carbon nanotubes can be effectively controlled. As Z. J. Han and co-workers report in article 1300151, the tri-layered Al2O3/Fe(Mo)/Al2O3 catalyst structure allows the tuning of the key parameters of single-walled carbon nanotube networks such as density, diameter, and conductivity.
