CVD Growth of Carbon Nanostructures from Zirconia: Mechanisms and a Method for Enhancing Yield

By excluding metals from synthesis, growth of carbon nanostructures via unreduced oxide nanoparticle catalysts offers wide technological potential. We report new observations of the mechanisms underlying chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of fibrous carbon nanostructures from zirconia nanopartic...
