TEM images and EDS spectrum of OH-functionalized MWCNTs deposited on a Cu grid coated with carbon film: micrographs acquired to measure (a) tube lengths (Bar 0.5 μm) and (b) the outside diameters (Bar 100 nm); (c) high-resolution TEM image to evidence a particle of the metallic catalyst used to synthesize the nanotubes (bar 10 nm) and (d) the corresponding EDS spectrum.
