| Description | Iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized in microwave plasma torch at atmospheric pressure from the mixture of Ar/H2 and Fe(CO)5 in gas feed. Such prepared nanoparticles were used for carbon nanotube growth. Nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes were analyzed by scanning and transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and x-ray powder diffraction. |
