“…The carbon vapours are disintegrated in carbon ions due to thermal energy in plasma. The carbon gases move along the temperature gradient towards the relatively cool cathode, condense into liquid carbon and later crystallises, forming rod-shaped deposition on the cathode, composed of CNTs [76]. However, the process of CNT formation is still questionable.…”

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) possess both remarkable optical properties and high potential for integration in various photonic devices. We overview, here, recent progress in CNT applications in fibre optics putting particular emphasis on fibre lasers. We discuss fabrication and characterisation of different CNTs, development of CNTbased saturable absorbers (CNT-SA), their integration and operation in fibre laser cavities putting emphasis on stateof-the-art fibre lasers, mode locked using CNT-SA. We discuss new design concepts of high-performance ultrafast operation fibre lasers covering ytterbium (Yb), bismuth (Bi), erbium (Er), thulium (Tm) and holmium (Ho)-doped fibre lasers.

“…In addition, their one-dimensional structure makes them an ideal platform for biomedical applications. Due to their important applications a significant number of methods to produce CNTs were developed: arc discharge method [25], laser method [26], chemical vapor deposition (CVD) [27], ball milling [28], etc. Final properties of CNTs are dependent on the production and purification methods.…”

The goal of this chapter is to provide a general introduction about graphene nanocomposites studied by Raman spectroscopy. The chapter will therefore begin with a brief description of the major Raman bands of carbon allotropes. In the following chapter a concise comparison between single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), fullerenes and graphene is exposed. The characteristic features in Raman spectra of carbon allotropes, namely the intense signals D and G are investigated. In particular, the chapter will outline the Raman spectrum of graphene and different types of graphene oxide. The last part of the chapter is devoted to graphene nanocomposites.

“…Exceptional electrical, mechanical, thermal, and electrochemical properties are exhibited by CNTs; it is widely used in semiconductor, sensor, superconductive electrode, drug delivery, and other forms of electronics [12]. So far, various techniques for synthesis of CNTs had been reported: laser ablation [13], chemical vapor deposition [14], arc-discharge [15], flame synthesis [16], and high-pressure carbon monoxide (HiPCO) [17].…”

Microwave oven was utilized to fabricate carbon nanostructure, specifically CNTs, from waste RH powders. It has been shown that the use of carbon source, catalyst, and commercial microwave oven to induce plasma is necessary to carry on this synthesis. The plasma enhances and speeds up the catalytic decomposition of RH in presence of ferrocene. FESEM, TGA, and Raman spectroscopy were utilized to confirm the presence and quality of produced carbon nanomaterials. In addition, these results suggest the conversion of ferrocene to iron(II, III) oxide with notable conversion rate.
