Abstract
Selected-area deposition of fibrous carbon nanomaterials at reduced substrate temperatures via pyrolysis of ethanol vapor is studied. The results demonstrate that, in a reactor fitted with an internal high-temperature heater, deposition is possible at substrate temperatures down to 330–350°C, which is about 150°C lower in comparison with conventional, externally heated reactors.
