Fabrication and electrochemical properties of carbon nanotube film electrodes (2006, background): “Recently, Emmenegger et al. reported that the directly grown CNT on aluminum substrate showed promising electrochemical characteristics for electrochemical double layer capacitor [18, 19 ].”
Prediction of carbon nanotube growth success by the analysis of carbon–catalyst binary phase diagrams (2006, result): “A comparison between the measured peaks and data from the literature [17,25–29] and the JCPDS database [30] allows the compounds in each sample to be identified; the presence of graphite, a-Fe, and Fe3C is observed in the ferrocene sample and graphite, Co, and both Co2C and Co3C are found in the cob”
Current understanding of the growth of carbon nanotubes in catalytic chemical vapour deposition (2013, result): “In line with the results of Esconjauregui et al, Emmeneger et al [371] reported in situ XRD data showing that, when exposed to C2H2, Fe2O3 was progressively converted into Fe3C which decomposed after 20-30 min into Fe and graphite, this process coinciding with the onset of”
