Abstract

The invention relates to the field of direct controllable preparation of metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes, and particularly discloses a method for preferentially growing a metallic single-walled carbon nanotube by using non-metallic silicon oxide as a catalyst. A silicon oxide film is deposited on a silicon substrate with nano silicon oxide thermal oxidization layer by an Ar ion beam deposition method, nucleation and precipitation of nano particles are realized by control on pretreatment conditions, and regulation on particle size and distribution is also realized, finally, the metallic single-walled carbon nanotube with the diameter about 1.2nm is obtained under proper growth conditions, and the content of the metallic single-walled carbon nanotube is more than 80% of the amount of the single-walled carbon nanotubes. In the method provided by the invention, starting from controlling the catalyst on which the single-walled carbon nanotube depends in the nucleation phase, based on the property of high melting point of the non-metallic catalyst, the direct growth of the single-walled carbon nanotube with narrower diameter distribution is realized, the bottleneck of metallic single-walled carbon nanotube control preparation in the present stage is broken, and new knowledge is provided for the nucleation mechanism of the single-walled carbon nanotube with special structure.
