Abstract

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were synthesized by inductively coupled plasma CVD at $450^{\circ}C$. CNTs were grown on the 1-nm-thick Fe-Ni-Co with $C_2H_2$ and $H_2$ at different pressures and plasma powers. CNTs were grown longer in height as the $H_{\alpha}/CH$ ratios became lower by decreasing plasma powers and increasing growth pressures.
