摘要
Tapered carbon nanotubes (TCNTs) are produced from activated carbon powders via simple thermal catalytic reactions in which the carbon nanotubes grow though a Sn-catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid growth process. The tapered nanotubes are well aligned and have a length of several tens of micrometers (see Figure).
