Low-Temperature Production of Genuinely Amorphous Carbon from Highly Reactive Nanoacetylide Precursors

Figure 1

Illustration of the method used to prepare amorphous carbon under 150°C. Copper acetylide precursor was prepared via the reaction of CuCl and C2H2 under NH3 water. Then the precursor was separated by suction filtration and annealed at 150°C. Finally, sulfuric acid treatment was carried out for eliminating copper.
