An Updated Review of Synthesis Parameters and Growth Mechanisms for Carbon Nanotubes in Fluidized Beds

TL;DR: In this article, a complete account of experimental procedures, including upstream treatments (catalyst preparation, calcination, and reduction), synthesis conditions, and downstream processes (purification) is presented in an attempt to determine the effect of these variables on carbon nanotube morphology, diameter, yield, and quality.

Growth of ZnO nanostructures by vapor–liquid–solid method

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of ZnO nanostructures is strongly influenced by the growth conditions and used substrates, and it was found that oriented ZnOs are grown more easily on a substrate with a similar crystalline structure as Zn
Journal ArticleDOI

Combustion synthesis as a novel method for production of 1-D SiC nanostructures.

TL;DR: The present study has enlarged the family of nanofibers and nanotubes available and offers a possible, new general route to 1-D crystalline materials.

InAs quantum dot arrays decorating the facets of GaAs nanowires.

TL;DR: This new type of heterostructures opens a new avenue to the fabrication of highly efficient single-photon sources, novel quantum optics experiments, as well as the realization of intermediate-band nanowire solar cells for third-generation photovoltaics.

Rational solution growth of α-FeOOH nanowires driven by screw dislocations and their conversion to α-Fe2O3 nanowires.

TL;DR: The rational synthesis of α-FeOOH (goethite) nanowires following a dislocation-driven mechanism by utilizing a continuous-flow reactor and chemical equilibria to maintain constant low supersaturations is reported.

The influence of dislocations on crystal growth

TL;DR: In fact, the existence of a critical finite supersaturation for further growth has only been established for a few materials, and then for individual faces of individual crystals, being different from case to case as discussed by the authors.
