The present invention provides a powerful new method for producing, uniform sized and uniformly aligned nanotubes through catalytic pyrolysis of a hydrocarbon within the dense, uniform and parallel pores of alumina nano- templates. The catalyst, Co, Fe, Ni or another suitable substance is deposited electrochemically into the bottom of the channel of the alumina template. The nanotubes with any desired diameter in the range 5-500 nm and lengths up to 100 µm, are generated by the pyrolysis of a suitable hydrocarbon inside the pores of the alumina template with at least one end open at the alumina/air interface. The nanotubes may be filled by metals using for example electroless deposition.

L'invention concerne un nouveau procédé puissant de production de nanotubes uniformément alignés et uniformément dimensionnés utilisant une pyrolyse catalytique d'un hydrocarbure à l'intérieur des pores denses, uniformes et parallèles de nanogabarits d'alumine. Le catalyseur, tel que Co, Fe, Ni ou une autre substance convenable est déposé électrochimiquement dans la partie inférieure du canal du gabarit d'alumine. Les nanotubes, dont le diamètre souhaité est de l'ordre de 5 et 500 nm et dont les longueurs peuvent atteindre jusqu'à environ 100 µm, sont obtenus par pyrolyse d'un hydrocarbure convenable à l'intérieur des pores du gabarit d'alumine présentant au moins une ouverture d'extrémité au niveau de l'interface alumine/air. On peut remplir les nanotubes avec des métaux en utilisant, par exemple, un dépôt chimique.
