Abstract

In this work the MPCVD (microwave plasma chemical vapour deposition) conditions for the growth of nanocarbon hybrids were studied. Using a single run MPCVD procedure, nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) hybrids were obtained using a continuous delivery of catalytic Fe particles. The grown films were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and μ-Raman spectroscopy, proving the coexistence of sp2 and sp3 bonded phases, either in a dense multi-layer arrangement or in a porous 3-D like morphology. Without the addition of a catalyst, NCD/carbon nanowalls (CNWs) hybrids were also synthesized. High quality and well intercalated hybrid carbon forms were successfully obtained in a simultaneous growth procedure.
