The Inherent Thermal Effect of Substrates on the Growth of Ultralong Carbon Nanotubes

Abstract: Ultralong carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are believed to be ideal candidates for various high-end applications because of their macroscale lengths, perfect structures, and excellent mechanical and electrical properties. The key to the wide application of ultralong CNTs is their controlled synthesis and mass production. Ultralong CNTs usually follow a flying kite-like growth mechanism, during which process there exists a thermal buoyancy that keeps ultralong CNTs floating in the gas flow. However, it remains vague for… Show more

“…First, ultralong CNTs, following the flying kite-like growth mechanism, were grown in the first direction via SIDS and they formed suspended CNT noncrossed networks (SCNT-nCNs) over the hole (Figure S2). Then, the substrate was rotated 90° and used for the growth of ultralong CNTs in another direction, resulting in the formation of SCNT-CNs under the self-assembling effect of strong van der Waals forces between two layers of ultralong CNTs. We also performed the smoke-assisted optical visualization to realize the direct observation of SCNT-CNs under optical microscopes .…”
