Near-field optical investigation of Ni clusters inside single-walled carbon nanotubes on the nanometer scale

Gergely Németh, Dániel Datz, Áron Pekker +7

We used scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM) to characterize nickel nanoclusters grown inside single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT). The nanotubes were…
