An electrochemical method for determining the dihydroxybenzene derivatives on glassy carbon (GC) has been developed. In this method, the performance of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT)/graphite-based electrode, prepared by mixing SWCNTs and graphite powder, was described. The resulting electrode shows an excellent behavior for redox of 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DBA). SWCNT/graphite-based electrode presents a significant decrease in the overvoltage for DBA oxidation as well as a dramatic improvement in the reversibility of DBA redox behavior in comparison with graphite-based and glassy carbon (GC) electrodes. In addition, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) procedures performed for used SWCNTs. 相似文献

An original approach was developed and validated for the fabrication of a carbon nanotube (CNT) electrode synthesized directly onto a carbon buffer thin film deposited on a highly doped monocrystalline silicon surface. The buffer layer of amorphous carbon thin film was deposited by physical vapour deposition on the silicon substrate before CNT synthesis. For this purpose, nickel was deposited on the carbon buffer layer by an electrochemical procedure and used as a catalyst for the CNT growth. The CNT synthesis was achieved by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) in an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma chamber using a C(2)H(2)/NH(3) gas mixture. In order to evaluate the electrochemical behaviour of the CNT-based electrode, the carbon layer and the silicon/carbon interface were studied. The resulting buffer layer enhanced the electronic transport from the doped silicon to the CNTs. The electrode surface was studied by XPS and characterized by both SEM and TEM. The electrochemical response exhibited by the resulting electrodes modified with CNTs was also examined by cyclic voltammetry. The whole process was found to be compatible with silicon microtechnology and could be envisaged for the direct integration of microsensors on silicon chips. 相似文献

We report on the fabrication of silicon nanostructures with a high aspect ratio that were created using a combination of electrochemical etching and alkaline etching. With this technique, we were able to fabricate nano- and/or micro-wire structures that are perfectly periodic over large areas of 3.14 cm2. After porous silicon was created by electrochemical etching, the effect of post-alkaline etching was investigated to determine how changes in the etching time, solution concentration and temperature of the etchant influenced the silicon morphology. As a result, periodic silicon wire arrays with good vertical alignment were obtained, and these arrays had a width of less than 500 nm and/or a high aspect ratio of more than 20. 相似文献

Growth of manganese oxide nanoflowers on vertically-aligned carbon nanotube arrays for high-rate electrochemical capacitive energy storage 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Manganese oxide nanoflower/carbon nanotube array (CNTA) composite electrodes with hierarchical porous structure, large surface area, and superior conductivity was controllable prepared by combining electrodeposition technique and a vertically aligned CNTA framework. This binder-free manganese oxide/CNTA electrode presents excellent rate capability (50.8% capacity retention at 77 A/g), high capacitance (199 F/g and 305 F/cm (3)), and long cycle life (3% capacity loss after 20 000 charge/discharge cycles), with strong promise for high-rate electrochemical capacitive energy storage applications. 相似文献

By controlling the timing and duration of hydrogen exposure in a fixed thermal process, we tuned the diameters of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) within a vertically aligned film by a factor of 2, and tuned the areal densities by an order of magnitude. The CNT structure is correlated with the catalyst morphology, suggesting that while chemical reduction of the catalyst layer is required for growth, prolonged H2 exposure not only reduces the iron oxide and enables agglomeration of the Fe film, but also leads to catalyst coarsening. Control of this coarsening process allows tuning of CNT characteristics. 相似文献

Investigation of the electrochemical and electrocatalytic behavior of single-wall carbon nanotube film on a glassy carbon electrode 总被引:28,自引:0,他引:28
The electrochemical behavior of a film of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) functionalized with carboxylic acid groups was studied extensively on a glassy carbon (GC) electrode. One stable couple corresponding to the redox of the carboxylic acid group, which was supported by XPS and IR experiments, was observed. The electrode process involved four electrons, while the rate-determining step was a one-electron reduction. The SWNT film-modified electrode showed favorable electrocatalytic behavior toward the oxidation of biomolecules such as dopamine, epinephrine, and ascorbic acid. 相似文献

p-Si type electrodes modified with different organic monolayers were investigated by reaction with radical anion and cation electrogenerated at a microelectrode operating in the configuration of a scanning electrochemical microscope. The method proves to be a convenient tool for investigating both the quality and the redox properties of the layer as previously demonstrated on metallic electrodes especially when the sample cannot be electrically connected. Approach curves recorded with the different mediators were used to investigate the electron-transfer rates across alkyl monolayers bound to p-type silicon substrates. Preliminary results indicate that the interfacial electron transfer occurs via electron tunneling through the organic layer as generally described for SAMs grafted on gold electrodes. 相似文献

Polypyrrole/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composite films were electrochemically deposited in the presence of an ionic
surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), acting as both supporting electrolyte and dispersant. The effects of the surfactant
and the MWNT concentrations on the structure of the resulting composite films were investigated. The electrochemical behavior
of the resulting polypyrrole/MWNT composite film was investigated as well by cyclic voltammogram. The effect of the additional
alternating electric field applied during the constant direct potential electrochemical deposition on the morphology and electrochemical
behavior of the resulting composite film was also investigated in this study. 相似文献

Carbon nanotube (CNT) networked films have been grown by radiofrequency plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (RF-PECVD) technology onto low-cost alumina substrates, coated by nanosized Fe-catalyst for growing CNTs, to perform chemical detection of hazardous gases, at an operating sensor temperature in the range 25-150 °C. The morphology and structure of the CNT networks have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Raman spectroscopy. The carbon nanotubes were “forest-like” with ropes vertically-aligned to the substrate surface. A dense network of bundles of multiple tubes consisting of multi-walled carbon nanostructures appears with a maximum length of 7-10 μm and single-tube diameter varying in the range of 5-35 nm. Surface functionalizations of the vertically-aligned CNT networks with nominally 5 nm thick Pt-, Ru- and Ag-nanoclusters, prepared by magnetron sputtering, provide higher sensitivity for significantly enhanced gas detection of NO2, H2, ethanol and toluene up to a low limit of sub-ppm level. The measured electrical conductance of the functionalized CNTs upon exposures of a given oxidizing and reducing gas is modulated by a charge transfer model with p-type semiconducting characteristics. Functionalized CNT gas sensors exhibited better performances compared to unmodified CNTs, making them highly promising candidates for environmental air monitoring applications, at ppb-level of toxic gas detection. 相似文献

Paste electrodes have been constructed using single-wall carbon nanotubes mixed with mineral oil. The electrochemical behavior of such electrodes prepared with different percentages of carbon nanotubes has been compared with that of graphite paste electrodes and evaluated with respect to the electrochemistry of ferricyanide with cyclic voltammetry. Carbon nanotubes were purified by a treatment with concentrated nitric acid, then oxidized in air. In addition, electrochemical pretreatments were carried out to increase the selectivity of carbon nanotube electrodes. Performances of carbon nanotube paste and carbon paste electrodes were evaluated by studying such parameters as current peak, deltaEp, anodic and cathodic current ratio, and charge density toward several different electroactive molecules. Data interpretation based on the carbon nanotubes and carbon surface area is presented. Carbon nanotube paste and carbon paste electrodes were tested as H2O2 and NADH probes, and several analytical parameters were evaluated. The oxidative behavior of dopamine was examined at these electrodes. The two-electron oxidation of dopamine to dopaminequinone showed an excellent reversibility in cyclic voltammetry that was significantly better than that observed at carbon paste electrodes. 相似文献

Cartilage serves as a low-friction and wear-resistant articulating surface in diarthrodial joints and is also important during early stages of bone remodeling. Recently, regenerative cartilage research has focused on combinations of cells paired with scaffolds. Superhydrophilic vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs) are of particular interest in regenerative medicine. The aim of this study is to evaluate cell expansion of human articular chondrocytes on superhydrophilic VACNTs, as well as their morphology and gene expression. VACNT films were produced using a microwave plasma chamber on Ti substrates and submitted to an O2 plasma treatment to make them superhydrophilic. Human chondrocytes were cultivated on superhydrophilic VACNTs up to five days. Quantitative RT-PCR was performed to measure type I and type II Collagen, Sox9, and Aggrecan mRNA expression levels. The morphology was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and confocal microscopy. SEM images demonstrated that superhydrophilic VACNTs permit cell growth and adhesion of human chondrocytes. The chondrocytes had an elongated morphology with some prolongations. Chondrocytes cultivated on superhydrophilic VACNTs maintain the level expression of Aggrecan, Sox9, and Collagen II determined by qPCR. This study was the first to indicate that superhydrophilic VACNTs may be used as an efficient scaffold for cartilage or bone repair. 相似文献

An integrated multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)–carbon fiber (CF) hybrid material has been fabricated by electrophoretic deposition of acid-functionalized MWCNTs on CF surface followed by soaking in a 10% solution of petroleum pitch in toluene, followed by pyrolysis in a nitrogen atmosphere. It has been revealed that MWCNTs entirely covered the CF surface. Mechanical properties of composites reinforced by MWCNT–CF hybrids were considerably enhanced (up to 120% in tensile strength and 100% in elastic modulus) compared to composites reinforce by as-received CFs. According to fractography observations, robust interlocking occurred between epoxy matrix and MWCNT–CF hybrids. 相似文献

A zirconia/multi-walled carbon nanotube (ZrO2/MWCNT) mesoporous composite was fabricated via a simple method using a hydrothermal process with the aid of the cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N2 adsorption–desorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques were used to characterize the as-made samples. The cubic ZrO2 nanocrystallites were observed to overlay the surface of MWCNTs, which resulted in the formation of a novel mesoporous–nanotube composite. On the basis of a TEM analysis of the products from controlled experiment, the role of the acid-treated MWCNTs and CTAB was proposed to explain the formation of the mesoporous–nanotube structure. The as-made composite possessed novel properties, such as a high surface area (312 m2 · g? 1) and a bimodal mesoporous structure (3.18 nm and 12.4 nm). It was concluded that this composite has important application value due to its one-dimensional hollow structure, excellent electric conductivity and large surface area. 相似文献

Carbon nanotube has good electrical properties and a high aspect ratio, which enable it to obtain a high current at a low voltage due to its high field. Due to the life and uniformity of their emission tips, carbon nanotube field emitters are hard to commercialize. A field emitter with a three-dimensional (3D) structure was fabricated in this study to overcome such problems. In the 3D-structured field emitter, the field emission tips are located only at the vertical plane, where an enlarged field emission area can be attained. To fabricate the tip of the 3D-structured field emitter, carbon nanotube/silver nanocomposite powders were fabricated via molecular-level mixing and were sprayed at a substrate with good attachment and homogeneous dispersion between the CNT tips and the silver. The field emission properties of the 3D-structured field emitter were then determined and compared with those of a flat field emitter. The field emission area of the 3D-structured field emitter was found to be 4.5 times larger than that of the flat field emitter, with six times higher current density. Moreover, the 3D-structured field emitter had better stability than the flat field emitter. At a high gate field, the emission images of the 3D-structured field emitter showed light spots expanded towards the gate direction. 相似文献

This paper describes the fabrication of large arrays (10(6) units in 1?cm(2)) of 100?μm tall, single-crystal silicon columns with submicron tip cross-sections. The columns are formed using thin film deposition and growth, reactive ion etching, and deep reactive ion etching. The columns can be either slightly tapered or have pencil-like morphology with nanoscaled tip diameter (41?nm). Conformal thin film coating was used to substantially and uniformly modify the porous structure and, thus, vary by orders of magnitude the fluid permeability of the structure. Gaps between the vertical pillars were varied between 9?μm and 50?nm. Isolated 45?nm diameter, 5?μm tall plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposited multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were grown on the top surface of the columns using a 7?nm thick evaporated Ni film as catalyst. Field emission characterization of the resulting structure was conducted and it is in agreement with scanning electron micrographs of the MWNTs. 相似文献
