Abstract

Catalytically active iron-containing silicon nanostructures prepared from a polyferrocenylsilane diblock copolymer have been used to produce single-walled carbon nanotubes with diameters of 1 nm or less. Spatially selective growth of carbon nanotubes on lithographically defined catalyst islands has been successfully demonstrated over a large surface area.
