摘要：

Straight carbon nanotubes, carbon nanotube 'knees', Y-branches of carbon nanotubes, and coiled carbon nanotubes were grown on a graphite substrate by the decomposition of fullerene under moderate heating (450 degreesC) in the presence of transition metal particles. The grown structures were investigated without any further manipulation by STM. The observed coiled carbon nanotubes are tentatively identified with the theoretically predicted haeckelite.
