XPS). The presence of nitrogen also leads to the modified chemical behavior of the SCMs. Typically, nitrogen addition can also be achieved by using a N atom which is part of a ligand attached to the catalyst. The synthesis of bamboo-shaped tubular structures is usually performed using the CVD method. The synthesis can also be achieved by using a volatile C source that contains N (e.g., acetonitrile) [23], Other common N sources include pyridine, melamine, benzylamine, etc. [6, 23].

Motivated by the possible catalyst interference in the electrochemical response of the nanotubes, Jones et al. studied the response of HOPG electrodes modified by catalyst-free CNTs. At least relative to the ferri/ ferrocyanide system, the study revealed that the electrodes were reversible and the peak current obtained was proportional to the amount of tubes. According to the authors, this response demonstrates the noninterference of the catalyst in the response of the nanotube probe (Ai p 60 mV) and the contribution of the amount of CNTs to the peak current of the electrode. The authors also observed that the same electrode modified with Bamboo like nanotubes features 66 mV peak separation.
