Decorating carbon nanotubes with metal or semiconductor nanoparticles

Abstract

Due to their large chemically active surface and stability at high temperatures carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been used as a support material for the dispersion and stabilization of metal and semiconductor nanoparticles (NPs). These hybrid materials have found several applications in catalysis, nanoelectronics, optics, nanobiotechnology, etc. Several ways have been described in the literature to immobilize NPs on CNTs and they can be divided into two main pathways: (a) the formation (and stabilization) of metal NPs directly on the carbon nanotube surface, and (b) the connection of chemically modified NPs to carbon nanotubes or to modified CNTs. A plethora of methods for the synthesis of different NPs have been very recently developed. This know-how is now available for the generation of a large variety of new hybrid products in combination with CNTs. A selection of representative examples of the synthesis, properties and applications of NP–CNTs is here reported and discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
