Abstract
The paper reports the preparation and characterization of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). The nanotubes have been synthesized by an electric arc discharge performed in deionised water using graphite electrodes. The method involves the application of a magnetic field which enhances the yield of carbon nano tubes. The carbon nanotubes (CNT) have been produced under varying conditions of voltages and currents using different refluxing media. Transmission Electron microscopy (TEM) observations reveal the morphological details of the nanotubes while Raman Spectroscopy has been performed for their structural characterization. Keywords: A. Arc discharge; B Carbon nanotubes; C. Electron microscopy; D. Raman spectroscopy
