Graphite wall

The process can work without additions of a hydrocarbon, in which case the carbon is supplied through a reaction between the hot silicon and the graphite walls. This is usually not the preferred growth mode and additions of hydrocarbons are needed to obtain a high growth rate. 

Here, Sff and off are the potential well depth between N2 molecules and the effective diameter, respectively. The used LJ parameters for an N2 molecule are /// ke = 104.2 K and Off = 0.3632 nm. The molecule-pore interaction was approximated by the smoothed graphitic wall function for the structure-less tube. [4,5] Even the molecule-pore interaction for the corn part was approximated by the spinning fishing rod model. [6] Here, the fee / ks = 30.14 K and Ooc - 0.3416 nm were used for a carbon... 

The intensity ratio between D and G band IdUg) is often used to evaluate the disorder in carbon materials or estimate the amount of defects in the graphitic walls... 

Finally, a third unanswered question, in our opinion, is the extent to which it is important to take into account the possible surface energetic heterogeneity contribution of the pore graphite walls...

The commonly used DFT-based methods for characterizing activated carbon assume that the pores are geometrically slits with smooth, unterminated graphitic walls of constant wall potential. The experimental data are then modeled as a system of homogeneous, confined slits of varying width. The energetic heterogeneity of the material is therefore completely expressed in terms of its distribution of pore widths.

Combining the results of the TEM+ED and XPS analysis we may conclude that at the low deposition temperatures, i.e. below 400°C the films consist mainly of Ni3C type crystalline phase. Films grown at or above 400°C have a cubic (fee) Ni or NiCx structure constituting the crystalline part of the structure [19, 23], The access carbon, which is not incorporated into the NixC carbide, constitutes the multi-layered graphitic walls separating the Ni-NixC crystalline grains.

Holt et al. [16] measured water and gas flow through the pores of double-walled carbon nanotubes. These tubes had inner diameters less than 2 nm with nearly defect-free graphitic walls. Five hydrocarbon and eight non-hydrocarbon gases were tested to determine flow rates and to demonstrate molecular weight selectivity compared with helium. Water flow was pressure driven at 0.82 atm and measured by following the level of the meniscus in a feed tube. The results for both gas and liquid show dramatic enhancements over flux rates predicted with continuum flow models. Gas flow rates were between 16 and 120 times than expected according to the Knudsen diffusion model in which fluid molecule-wall collisions dominate the flow. 

Two approaches have been utilized to achieve derivatization. The first has involved chemical modification of the nanotube surface, while the second has involved chemical interaction with various defects on the graphitic walls of the tubes and at the tube ends. The surface modifications reported in the literature for nanotubes have been somewhat similar to that achieved on the Ceo fullerene, although closer examination has revealed sizable differences in reaction type, location, and symmetry of the chemistry involved. Onthe other hand, defect site functionalization involves chemistry that is not applicable to the fullerenes because they are free from similar defects.
