Synthesis of Boron Nitride Nanotubes Using Plasma-Assisted CVD Catalyzed by Cu Nanoparticles and Oxygen

We found that oxidized Cu nanoparticles can catalyze the growth of boron nitride nanotubes from borazine via plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition. The Raman spectra suggest that the formation of thin-walled nanotubes show a radial breathing mode vibration. The presence of oxygen in the plasma e...
