2013 journal article

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

ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES, 5(18), 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
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.
