Abstract
Straight carbon nanotubes, carbon nanotube “knees,” Y-branches of carbon nanotubes and coiled carbon nanotubes were grown on a graphite substrate held at room temperature by the decomposition of fullerene under moderate heating (450 °C) in the presence of 200-nm Ni particles. The grown structures were investigated without any further manipulation by STM. The growth and the chemical stability of the carbon nanostructures containing nonhexagonal rings are discussed.
