Airbrushed Nickel Nanoparticles for Large-Area Growth of Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanofibers on Metal (Al, Cu, Ti) Surfaces

Sarac, M. F., Anderson, B. D., Pearce, R. C., Railsback, J. G., Oni, A. A., White, R. M., … Tracy, J. B. (2013, September 9). ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, Vol. 5, pp. 8955–8960.

By: M. Sarac n, B. Anderson n, R. Pearce n, J. Railsback n, A. Oni n, R. White n, D. Hensley *, J. LeBeau n, A. Melechko n, J. Tracy n 

Contributors: M. Sarac n, B. Anderson n, R. Pearce n, J. Railsback n, A. Oni n, R. White n, D. Hensley *, J. LeBeau n, A. Melechko n, J. Tracy n 

author keywords: airbrushing; nickel; copper; nanoparticles; catalyst; carbon nanofibers; carbon nanotubes; metal foils
topics (OpenAlex): Graphene research and applications; Carbon Nanotubes in Composites; Diamond and Carbon-based Materials Research
TL;DR: Growth of carbon nanostructures on Cu is particularly noteworthy because the miscibility of Ni with Cu poses challenges for VACNF growth, and carbon nanstructures anchored to Cu substrates are desired as anode materials for Li-ion batteries and for thermal interface materials.

Railsback, J. G., Johnston-Peck, A. C., Wang, J., & Tracy, J. B. (2010, April 2). ACS Nano, Vol. 4, pp. 1913–1920.

By: J. Railsback n, A. Johnston-Peck n, J. Wang n & J. Tracy n 

Contributors: J. Railsback n, A. Johnston Peck n, J. Wang n & J. Tracy n 

author keywords: Kirkendall effect; nanoparticle; nickel; nickel oxide; hollow nanoparticles; diffusion
