摘要:
Long, macroscopic nanotube strands or cables, up to several tens of centimeters in length, of aligned single-walled nanotubes are synthesized by the catalytic pyrolysis of n-hexane using an enhanced vertical floating catalyst CVD technique. The long strands of nanotubes assemble continuously from ropes or arrays of nanotubes, which are intrinsically long. These directly synthesized long nanotube strands or cables can be easily manipulated using macroscopic tools.
摘要:
A supercapacitor comprising a cathode, an anode, a first single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) film electrode adjacent the cathode, a second SWNT film electrode adjacent the anode, and separator disposed between the first and second electrodes. The SWNT film electrodes may be manufactured by a non-filtration process comprising depositing the SWNT film on a foil via CVD; separating the SWNT film from the foil; heating the SWNT film; treating the SWNT film with an acid solution; washing the SWNT film; and excising the electrodes from the SWNT film.

A method of making a carbon nanotube structure includes providing an array of substantially aligned carbon nanotubes, wetting the array with a liquid, and evaporating the liquid to form the carbon nanotube structure having a pattern in the carbon nanotube array. The structure is preferably a carbon nanotube foam.
摘要:
A method of controllably aligning carbon nanotubes to a template structure to fabricate a variety of carbon nanotube containing structures and devices having desired characteristics is provided. The method allows simultaneous, selective growth of both vertically and horizontally controllably aligned nanotubes on the template structure but not on a substrate in a single process step.

A flexible silicon anode includes a flexible substrate, a layer of silicon with a thickness of 1 μm or less adhered to the flexible substrate, and a current collector in contact with the layer of silicon. A lithium ion battery cell includes a flexible silicon anode, a current collector in contact with the layer of silicon; a lithium cathode; a separator between the silicon anode and the lithium cathode; an electrolyte in contact with the silicon anode and the lithium cathode; and an electrical connection between the silicon anode and the lithium cathode. Forming the flexible silicon anode can include etching a silicon-on-insulator structure to form a silicon layer on the silicon substrate, treating the silicon layer, contacting the treated silicon layer with a flexible substrate, and separating the flexible substrate and the silicon substrate, thereby transferring the treated silicon layer from the silicon substrate to the flexible substrate.
