Synthesis and Optical Enhancement of Amorphous Carbon NanotubesSilver Nanohybrids via Chemical Route at Low Temperature

الملخص EN

We report the synthesis of amorphous carbon nanotubes/silver (αCNTs/Ag) nanohybrids via simple chemical route without additional reactant and surfactant at low temperature.

Field emission scanning microscope (FESEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) confirmed formation of CNTs.

X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern confirmed the amorphous phase of carbon and the formation of Ag nanoparticles crystalline phase.

Raman spectra revealed the amorphous nature of αCNTs.

UV-visible spectroscopy showed enhancement of optical properties of αCNTs/Ag nanohybrids.
