摘要：
Bundles of nanotubes were produced by vapor-phase condensation of carbon on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and analyzed by scanning tunneling microscopy. The bundles are found to have widths between 15 and 50 nm, and up to 200 nm long. They are composed of concentric tubules with 2-4 nm in diameter. Atomic resolution images reveal their graphitic surface structure.
