초록
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes were massively produced by the catalytic reaction of C$_2$H$_2$ - Fe(CO)$\sub$5/ mixture at 750 - 950$^{\circ}C$ in a quartz tube reactor and over quartz substrates. Well-aligned MWNT array grows perpendicular to the quartz tube reactor and the quartz substrates at an average of 60 nm in diameter and up to several thousands of micrometers in length. This method does not require any pretreatment of substrates and CNTs are grown at atmospheric pressure. It could be suitable for mass production of multiwalled nanotubes. Scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope images of the nanotubes deposited on the substrates allowed us to monitor the quality of MWNTs grown under different operating conditions.
