ABSTRACT:
Free-standing aligned carbon nanotubes have previously been grown above 700.degree.C on mesoporous silica embedded with iron nanoparticles. Here, carbon nanotubes aligned over areas up to several square centimeters were grown on nickel-coated glass below 666.degree.C by plasma-enhanced hot filament chem. vapor deposition. Acetylene gas was used as the carbon source and ammonia gas was used as a catalyst and diln. gas. Nanotubes with controllable diams. from 20 to 400 nm and lengths from 0.1 to 50 .mu.m were obtained. Using this method, large panels of aligned carbon nanotubes can be made under conditions that are suitable for device fabrication.
