Research Abstract |
Ultrahigh-speed and ultraprecise synthesis of carbon nanowalls (CNWs) and their application to fuel cell electrodes were studied. By independent control of ion and radical irradiations during the growth, effects of ion irradiation on nucleation and vertical growth of nanographene at the initial stage were clarified. Synthesis techniques of CNWs employing atmospheric pressure plasma were also established. In addition, supporting mechanisms of ultrahigh-density Pt nanoparticles on the CNW surfaces employing supercritical fluid were clarified based on comparisons with plasma irradiated graphite surfaces.
