A PROCESS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF DOUBLE HELICAL CARBON MICROCOILED BY CATALYTIC CHEMICAL VAPOUR DEPOSITION (CCVD) METHOD

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for the synthesis of double helical carbon microcoils by catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CCVD). The method disclosed herein induces coiled configuration in the absence of magnetic field by using thiophene as promoter. In particular aspect the present invention provides double helical carbon microcoils (DHCMCs).
