Abstract :
A novel nanocarbon structure, carbon nanohorns (CNHs) particle which includes one Ni-contained carbon nanocapsule (CNC) in its center, is produced by submerged arc in liquid nitrogen using Ni-contained (0.7 mol%) graphite anode. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that each CNHs particle in nearly spherical shape of diameter around 50–100 nm has one Ni nanoparticle of diameter 5–20 nm encapsulated by graphitic shells as CNC.
