Synthesis of Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotubes on Silicalite-1 Monolayer-Supported Substrate

Monodisperse magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) with the size of ca. 3.5 nm were prepared and used as the catalysts for the synthesis of vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VACNT) arrays. A silicalite-1 microcrystal monolayer was used as the support layer between catalyst NPs and the silicon substra...
