Abstract
Syntheses of carbon nanotubes (CNT) are disclosed. The syntheses can take place on a thermally oxidized silicon surface placed inside a furnace prior to a reaction. The setup can have many variables that could affect the resulting CNT arrays, including flow rate and composition of carrier gas, flow rate and composition of precursor solution, and temperature. By varying such variables the density of the resulting CNT arrays can be controlled.
