Dendrimer-assisted low-temperature growth of carbon nanotubes by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition

Abstract

Using a shielded growth approach and N2-annealed, nearly monodispersed Fe2O3 nanoparticles synthesized by interdendritic stabilization of Fe3+ species within fourth-generation poly(amidoamine) dendrimers, carbon nanotubes and nanofibers were successfully grown at low substrate temperatures (200−400 °C) by microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition.
