摘要：
This work studied a new method to prepare single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The key of this method is to add two kinds of platinum family metals as catalysts to a graphite rod to make a composite graphite anode. The arc discharge was carried out in helium gas, and the collected product was observed and analyzed using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The results showed that straight SWCNTs with uniform diameter could be obtained without the inclusion of any magnetic metal catalysts. This offers the possibility of studying the SWCNT-polymer magnetic functional material. The structure and the growth mechanism of the SWCNTs prepared by this new method were also analyzed.
