Ordered alignment of CdS nanocrystals on MWCNTs without surface modification

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 21 - Publication in refereed journalpeer-review

Abstract

This paper describes a facile hydrothermal procedure capable of aligning CdS nanocrystals on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) without the use of organic bridging molecules such as cysteamine and carboxylates. The direct placement of CdS on MWCNTs allows good mixing and better interfacing between the two nanophases. The synthesis conditions can in principle be tuned to produce modulations in compositions, phases, and crystal orientations to the need of optoelectronic and photonic applications. © 2005 American Chemical Society.
