Micro-structural, electron-spectroscopic and field-emission studies of carbon nitride nanotubes grown from cage-like and linear carbon sources Original Research Article

Using conventional chemical vapor deposition at 800 °C at atmospheric pressure, N-doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown from two precursors: (i) from a cage-like carbon source: camphor, using dimethylformamide (DMF) as a nitrogen source; and (ii) from
