The synthesis of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) and Helical Carbon Nanofibers (HCNFs) using Floating Catalyst-Chemical Vapor Deposition method (FC-CVD) is reported. Acetone and ethanol are used as carbon sources, hydrogen as carrier gas, argon as purging gas and ferrocene as catalyst. The effect of carbon...
