Aem and Hrem Evaluation of Carbon Nanostructures in Silica Aerogels
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 February 2011
Abstract
Nanostructured carbon has been deposited in silica aerogels by chemical vapor infiltration using acetylene or ferrocene at moderate temperatures. Using analytical electron microscopy and high-resolution electron microscopy, we have observed various carbon rings and nanotubes in the silica aerogel-based carbon composite. Both X-ray microanalysis and nano-probe diffraction techniques have been used to confirm the presence of those carbon nanostructures. The morphologies and structural properties of the carbon nanotubes and rings have also been examined in detail.
