"Synthesis of large arrays of
well-aligned carbon nanotubes on glass,"
by Z.F. Ren, Z.P. Huang, J.W. Xu, J.H. Wang, P. Bush, M.P. Siegal, P.N.
Provencio," Science, 282(5391):1105-7, 6 November 1998.
Abstract: "Free-standing aligned
carbon nanotubes have previously been grown above 700 degrees C on mesoporous
silica embedded with iron nanoparticles. Here, carbon nanotubes aligned over
areas up to several square centimeters were grown on nickel-coated glass below
666 degrees C by plasma-enhanced hot filament chemical vapor deposition.
Acetylene gas was used as the carbon source and ammonia gas was used as a
catalyst and dilution gas. Nanotubes with controllable diameters from 20 to
400 nanometers and lengths from 0.1 to 50 micrometers were obtained. Using
this method, large panels of aligned carbon nanotubes can be made under
conditions that are suitable for device fabrication."
This 1998 report from Science was
cited 16 times in current journal articles indexed in the ISI
database during July-August 2000. Only two other chemistry papers published in
the last two years (aside from reviews) collected more citations during that
two-month period. Prior to the most recent bimonthly count, citations to the
paper have accrued as follows:
May-June 2000: 12 citations
