  • Publication number: 20120068161
    Abstract: A method for forming graphene includes introducing a substrate and a carbon-containing reactant source into a chamber, and radiating a laser beam onto the substrate to decompose the carbon-containing reactant source and form graphene over the substrate using carbon atoms generated by decomposition of the carbon-containing reactant source. A carbon-containing gas (methane) decomposes upon radiation of a laser beam. The carbon-containing gas has a decomposition rate on the order of femtoseconds and the laser beam has a pulse on the order of nanoseconds or more. The graphene is grown in a single layer along the surface of the substrate. Then, the graphene is selectively patterned using a laser beam to form a desired pattern.

  • Publication number: 20120064246
    Abstract: Ultralong carbon nanotubes can be formed by placing a secondary chamber within a reactor chamber to restrict a flow to provide a laminar flow. Inner shells can be successively extracted from multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) such as by applying a lateral force to an elongated tubular sidewall at a location between its two ends. The extracted shells can have varying electrical and mechanical properties that can be used to create useful materials, electrical devices, and mechanical devices.
