Abstract
⺠Surface functionalization of CNT surfaces influences the growth of Pt by ALD inside aligned CNT arrays. ⺠Pt density and uniformity inside arrays depends strongly on the gasses used for functionalization. ⺠Ar plasma blocks nucleation, O2 plasma and trimethylaluminum treatments enhance uniformity. ⺠Generation/reduction of oxygen rich defect sites is the key to promote/block Pt ALD nucleation.
