Novel Sodium-Catalyzed Method for Carbon Nanotube Synthesis
Researchers at the Institute of Advanced Study in Science and Technology (IASST) have developed a breakthrough method for synthesizing carbon nanotubes (CNTs) directly on glass substrates at lower temperatures. This could revolutionize energy research, biomedical fields, and optoelectronics.
- Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) exhibit exceptional properties and find applications in rechargeable batteries, flexible electronics, aerospace, transparent electrodes, and medicine.
- Conventional CNT synthesis methods require high temperatures and metal catalysts, posing challenges for biomedical applications and adding significant costs for catalyst removal.
- The researchers developed a novel method using Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition (PECVD) at 750°C on glass substrates.
- This method ....
