Selective synthesis of diameter- and interlayer-controlled carbon nitride nanotubes with hydrogen ensnaring nanopores.
Diameter- and interlayer-controlled carbon nitride nanotubes (CNNTs) having nanopores with approximately 6 A diameters are synthesized by our new plasma-assisted growth method on catalysts located inside the organic silica mesoporous templates. Our experiments and first-principles calculations show that hydrogen stored inside nanopores of 6.2 A are attributed to the hydrogen released at 257.24 K.
