Abstract

Metal particle-catalysed generation of a series of novel nanostructures, via the well-known VLS step first described as a micrometer-scale fibre growth mechanism, is discussed. The resulting nanomaterials were characterised using HRTEM, SEM, EDX and XRD, and the results showed that these materials could be valuable components in constructing nano- and micro-machines.
