Graphical Abstract
  • BNNTs are more toxic than CNTs [13]. The first BNNTs were synthesized by Chopra et al. with the arc-discharge method [14]. Later, the use of chemical vapor deposition (CVD), laser ablation, ball milling, a template-assisted process, and displacement reactions were reported for the synthesis [15][16][17

  • obtained by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) from a hydrogen/methane gas mixture activated by a direct current discharge. The details of the used home-made CVD system and the corresponding process are described in [13][14]. For the cathode production pieces of Ni wire with 1 mm diameter were placed in a CVD
  • stability of the FE process is stems from the weak interaction between these atomic layers, which lead to their splitting and detachment under the action of the strong electric field. This problem is essentially eliminated in mesoporous nano-graphite film (NGF) material obtained by chemical vapor deposition
  • (CVD) [13][14]. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) demonstrates that this type of film material consists of tiny graphite flakes (see Figure 3). Transparency of these flakes for secondary electrons in the SEM observations indicates that their thickness is just a few nanometers (see Figure 3B). High

Graphical Abstract
  • aligned CNTs from acetylene chemical vapor deposition (CVD) catalyzed by iron nanoparticles embedded in mesoporous silica. In that work, the growth direction of not very straight, entangled-CNTs was related to the direction of the pores in the silica substrate, being perpendicular to the substrate surface
  • synthesize non-aligned CNTs, such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD), electrical arc discharge, or laser ablation, CVD has been reported to be the best for the synthesis of VA-CNTs. Different versions of CVD for the synthesis of VA-CNTs have been used, which can be mainly divided in two types: those
  • . This can be performed by thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). The PECVD includes different plasma techniques, such as DC plasma [41], radio-frequency plasma [42], or microwave plasma [43]. The main difference is that the plasma in the PECVD
