Abstract
CNTs were synthesized using floating catalyst by dual‐furnace thermal chemical vapour deposition method at 800–1000° C. Cooking oil made of palm oil was used as the carbon precursor. Ferrocene in the presence of 0.05 M zinc nitrate and a p‐type silicon wafer was used as a catalyst precursor and a sample target, respectively. The deposition temperature was varied from 800–1000° C. Nitrogen gas was used as a gas carrier with a constant flow rate of 150 sccm/min. Field emission scanning electron micrographs show the formation of CNTs together with other carbons formed on the silicon substrate. Raman spectroscopy studies were also supported the formation of CNTs.
