Research Abstract |
We have developed a technique for controlled CVD synthesis of vertically-aligned single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) films, which is requisite for many SWNT-based thermal and optical applications. In addition to patterning the growth and controlling the film thickness and SWNT diameter, we have also obtained much information about the growth mechanism of vertically aligned SWNTs. Moreover, we succeeded in measuring the thermal conductivity of SWNT films using various measurement techniques.
