Method for generating atomistic supercells of layered networks from multi-walled chiral carbon nanotubes and their bundles [PDF]
To investigate the mechanical properties of quasi-2D layered networks composed of chiral multi-walled carbon nanotubes and their bundles, a methodology has been developed for constructing atomistic supercell models based on chiral nanotubes of the $(m,2m)

Evolution of TiO2 Nanotubular Morphology Obtained in Ethylene Glycol/Glycerol Mixture and its Photoelectrochemical Performance [PDF]
The evolution of TiO2 nanotubular morphology, synthesized in a mixture of fluorinated ethylene glycol and glycerol electrolyte, was studied as a function of the anodization time. The samples were characterized by FEG-SEM, XRD, XPS, UV-Vis and EIS.

Pressure dependence of Raman modes in double wall carbon nanotubes filled with α-Fe. [PDF]
The preparation of highly anisotropic one-dimensional (1D) structures confined into carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in general is a key objective in CNTs research. In this work, the capillary effect was used to fill double wall carbon nanotubes with iron.

Moiré-Induced Vibrational Coupling in Double-Walled Carbon Nanotubes [PDF]
Moiré patterns are additional, long-range periodicities in twisted crystalline bilayers. They are known to fundamentally change the electronic states of the layers, but similar effects on their mechanical and vibrational properties have not been discussed so far.

Preparation of double-walled carbon nanotubes
Double-walled carbon nanotubes were prepared using the floating chemical vapor deposition with methane as carbon source and adding small amount of sulfur into the ferrocene catalyst. The optimized technological parameters are: the reaction temperature is 1200°C; the catalyst vapor temperature is 80 °C; the flow rate of argon is 2000 SCCM; the flow rate
