摘要
X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies on single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) samples prepared by the arc-dischage method were reported. The XRD profile was basically explained to be a result of triangular packing of SWNTS with a lattice constant of 17.1 Angstrom and an average nanotube radius of 7.1 Angstrom. We found an anomalous change in XRD profiles before and after heat-treatment of the SWNT samples in air at similar to 350 degrees C. Combined with gravimetric measurements and resistivity; measurements, a detailed simulation of the XRD profiles showed that air (oxygen, and/or nitrogen and/or water) can be condensed inside:the SWNTs.
