| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention discloses a supported metal catalyst useful in synthesizing carbon nanotubes by low-temperature (<600° C.) thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD), which contains particles of a noble metal having a diameter of 0.1-10 microns as a support and a metal catalyst deposited on the support. The metal catalyst is iron, cobalt, nickel or an alloy thereof. The weight ratio of the metal catalyst to the support ranges from 0.1:100 to 10:100. The present invention also discloses a method of synthesizing carbon nanotubes directly on a substrate by low-temperature thermal CVD, wherein the support is not needed to be removed from the substrate after growth of carbon nanotubes.</p> |
