ABSTRACTCarbon nanotubes on metallic wires may be act as electrode for the field emission (FE) luminescent devices. Growing nanotubes on metallic wires with controlled density, length and alignment are challenging issues for this kind of devices. We, in the present investigation grow carbon nanotubes directly on the metal wires by a powerful but simple technique. A novel approach has been proposed to align nanotubes during growth. Methane, acetylene and dimethylamine have been used as source gases. With the same growth conditions (viz. pressure, growth temperature and plasma) methane does not produce any nanotube but nanotubes grown with dimethylamine show shorter length and radius than acetylene. The effect of temperature to control the radius, time to control the density, plasma conditions to align the nanotubes has been focused. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Rutherford Back Scattering (RBS) are used to characterize the nanotubes.

We present a model to understand the effect of temperature on the electrical resistance of individual semiconducting single wall carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNTs) of various diameters under various electric fields. The temperature dependence of the resistance of s-SWCNTs and metallic SWCNTs (m-SWCNTs) are compared. These results help us to understand the temperature dependence of the resistance of SWCNTs network. We experimentally examine the temperature dependence of the resistance of random networks of SWCNTs, prepared by dispersing CNTs in ethanol and drop-casting the solution on prefabricated metallic electrodes. Examining various samples with different electrode materials and spacings, we find that the dominant resistance in determination of the temperature dependence of resistance of the network is the resistance of individual tubes, rather than the tube–tube resistance or tube–metal contact resistance. It is also found that the tube–tube resistance depends on the electrode spacing and it is more important for larger electrode spacings. By applying high electric field to burn the all-metallic paths of the SWCNTs network, the temperature dependence of the resistance of s-SWCNTs is also examined. We also investigate the effect of acid treatment of CNTs on the temperature dependence of the resistance of SWCNTs and also multi-wall CNTs (MWCNTs) networks.

The interaction between pyropheophorbide methyl ester (PPME) and Cu 2+ was investigated using UV-vis and fluorescence spectrscopy. Study of the binding interaction between PPME and Cu 2+ could contribute to understanding of its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Parameters of the static and dynamic fluorescence quenching of PPME- Cu 2+ association were calculated at different temperatures. For binding site of 1:1 at 299 K, the static binding constant (kS), the static isosbestic concentration ([Formula: see text]), the dynamic binding constant (kD), and the dynamic isosbestic concentration ([Formula: see text]) are, respectively, 61 M-1, 0.0164 M, 75 M-1, and 0.0133 M. The concentrations and efficiencies of the intermediates species were modeled. Satisfactory correspondence between the experimental and calculated results was found.
