title: Synthesis of high purity single-walled carbon nanotubes in high yield.
abstract: A simple method for the synthesis of high purity single wall carbon nanotubes has been developed by using nickel formate as a precursor for the formation of nearly mono-dispersed nickel seed-nanoparticles as catalysts in the CVD growth process.
