A block copolymer/metal-salt solution was used to deposit metal nanoparticles on substrates, from which carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) chamber. Mono and hybrid catalysts of Fe, Ni, and Co-nitrates were tested, and separately Co, Ni, and Cu-chlorides. In both cases cobalt/cobalt-hybrids produced the highest density of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Slight vertical growth, though sparse, was observed after growth at 800°C from a nickel catalyst on single-crystal aluminium oxide (~130nm diameter).
