The Effects of Fe Film Thickness and the H₂ Annealing Time on the Spin-Capability of Carbon Nanotube Forest with Chemical Vapor Deposition Method.

The effects of as-deposited iron (Fe) film thickness and the hydrogen (H₂) annealing time on the spin-capability of carbon nanotube (CNT) forest have been studied. Both, the as-deposited Fe film thickness and the H₂ annealing time significantly changed the morphology of Fe nanoparticles (NPs) after annealing process during the synthesis step of spin-capable carbon nanotube (SCNT) forest. The spin capability of CNT forests depended heavily on the different thicknesses of Fe films and the H₂ annealing time.

A High Energy Density 2D Microsupercapacitor Based on an Interconnected Network of a Horizontally Aligned Carbon Nanotube Sheet.

Highly aligned carbon nanotubes (HACNT sheets) have recently attracted great attention in developing high-performing ultrathin supercapacitors, which take advantage of the long-range alignment to improve electrochemical performance. While there are investigations into sandwich electrode CNT sheet devices, there are no known reports on interdigitated electrode (IDE) HACNT sheet microsupercapacitors (MSCs). This paper reports a facile method for rapidly fabricating high energy density ultrathin HACNT sheet-based MSCs with IDE planar configuration.
