ABSTRACT Nickel nanoparticles synthesized by a sol-gel process were spin-coated over silicon substrates as catalysts for the growth of a carbon nanotube (CNT) by atmospheric thermal chemical vapor deposition. The as-deposited Ni film exhibited relatively good activity for the growth of CNTs. On the basis of the results obtained, several characteristics of CNT growth were observed: I. Pretreatment stage: Parameters including the reduction temperature, composition and flow rate of ambient gases had a prominent effect on the diameter and morphology of the as-grown carbon nanotube. A pretreatment temperature of 800o C for 10~20 minutes seems adequate for CNT growth. II. CNT growth stage: The temperature range for CNT growth extends from
700 o to 900o C. For intensive growth and better quality control of the nanotube, it was beneficial to introduce a reduction ambient such as hydrogen flow. The optimal ratio of H2/C2H2 extends to within 0.1 under which CNT was grown at a considerable rate. Meanwhile, it took about 10~20 minutes for complete CNT growth under an ambient containing H2. For better control of the orientation of the as-grown CNTs (vertically aligned growth), information about the catalysts dispersion, growth rate control and how to prevent the deactivation of active sites during the growth stage would be necessary and vital. The Raman spectroscopy has strong bands at
1305 and
1560 cm-1 , respectively, thus providing definite evidence that the CNTs are multi-walled with a graphitic structure. Key Words: sol-gel method, chemical vapor deposition, carbon nanotubes
