  • Title: Growth of millimeter-long and horizontally aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes on flat substrates.
    Author: Huang S, Cai X, Liu J.
    Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2003 May 14; 125(19):5636-7. PubMed ID: 12733894.
    Abstract:
    Millimeter-long and well-aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have been produced on silica/silicon surfaces using the carbon monoxide chemical vapor deposition (CO-CVD) method. The orientation of the nanotube arrays can be well-controlled by the gas flow during the growth. The majority of the orientated SWNTs are straight and individual. The length of the nanotubes can be >2 mm for a 10 min growth. Furthermore, multidimensional crossed-networks of SWNT can be easily generated by multistep processes. These results present a great opportunity in the controllable production of organized SWNT arrays for large-scale carbon nanotube-based nanodevice fabrication.
