A thermally induced templated synthesis for SiC nanotubes and nanofibers using ammonia or nitrogen as a carrier gas, single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) as templates as well as gaseous Si is presented. The bundles of SWCNT act as both the…
In this study, the synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was carried out by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using propane as the carbon source and Si as the catalyst support. The effect of CVD process variables such as…
As the next step in extraterrestrial exploration, many engineers and scientists around the country revealed their intense interest to enable multiplanetary human life, including colonizing Mars. This study proposes that architecture on Mars…
Immotile microbes inhabit nearly every environment on Earth, from soils and sediments to food matrices -- yet how they disperse through these physically confining environments is poorly understood. Here, we show that immotile microbial…
The excellent properties of transistors, wires, and sensors made from single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) make them promising candidates for use in advanced nanoelectronic systems. Gas-phase growth procedures such as the high pressure…
Transformation of carbon dioxide into carbon nanotubes, CNTs, by electrolysis in molten carbonates provides a low cost route to extract and store this greenhouse gas. CNTs are more stable, compact and valuable than fuels or other CO2…
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have been recently proposed as stabilizers against grain growth that can happen even at low temperature inputs in nano-crystalline and ultrafine-grained materials obtained by severe plastic deformation. In this study,…
Carbon nanotube (CNT) fiber is formed by assembling millions of individual tubes. The assembly feature provides the fiber with rich interface structures and thus various ways of energy dissipation, as reflected by the non-zero loss tangent…
Large-scale fully interconnected ring carbon nanotube (CNT) networks were first prepared using thermo chemical vapor deposition in nano-channel network templates of porous anodic alumina. This conductive CNT network film consists of…
Graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) share the same atomic structure of hexagonal carbon lattice. Yet, their synthesis differs in many aspects, including the shape and size of the catalyst. Here, we demonstrate a floating-catalyst chemical…
