Preparation of Si-carbon nanotube composite by decomposition of tetramethylsilane (TMS) and its hydrogen storage property

Hydrogen storage property of Si-carbon nanotube composite was studied. It was found that the carbon nanotube coated Si particle was prepared by the decomposition of tetramethylsilane by using Ni catalyst. The obtained composite was consisted of the spherical Si particle with 300 nm diameter and the...
