The results of experimental investigation of the effect of a nickel catalyst on the structural features of carbon films deposited by the arc sputtering of graphite are represented. It is shown that the interaction of the carbon film with the nickel film at a temperature of 1100°C results in the formation of graphitic nano structures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
