Abstract
Template-based synthesis of Pt-doped carbon nanotubes has been conducted with a corona discharge enhanced chemical vapor deposition. In this paper, nanoporous anodic alumina template was firstly decorated with Pt nanoparticles upon its interior walls. As the fabrication of carbon nanotubes within the nanopores, Pt nanoparticles were simultaneously embedded into the carbon nanotubes. HRTEM indicated that the grain size of these Pt nanoparticles is 5 nm and they are homogeneously exposed on the outer surface of carbon nanotubes.
