Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes Decorated with Cobalt Oxide Nanoparticles

Figure 2

Characterization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes after decoration: (a) STEM image of a representative coated tube with Co oxide nanoparticles prepared with 0.5 wt.% of cobalt nitrate in acetone and (b) size distribution of Co oxide nanostructured particles attached to the walls of MWCNTs. The average size is around 50 nm.
