Title: CARBON NANOWALL WITH CONTROLLED STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING STRUCTURE OF CARBON NANOWALL

Abstract:
A method of controlling the structure of carbon nanowall (CNW) in which the interwall spacing of carbon nanowall (CNW) is varied so as to control the surface area thereof or control the crystallinity thereof, thereby enhancing the corrosion resistance at high potential; and a highly crystalline carbon nanowall (CNW) and carbon nanowall (CNW) of large surface area with controlled structure. There are provided (1) carbon nanowall characterized by having a wall surface area of 50 cm2/cm2-substrate·&mgr;m or greater, (2) carbon nanowall characterized by having a crystallinity such that the D-band half value width of Raman spectrum measured with an irradiation laser wavelength of 514.5 nm is 85 cm-1 or less; and (3) carbon nanowall characterized by having not only a wall surface area of 50 cm2/cm2-substrate·&mgr;m or greater but also a crystallinity such that the D-band half value width of Raman spectrum measured with an irradiation laser wavelength of 514.5 nm is 85 cm-1 or less.
