Decoration of carbon nanotubes with gold nanopeprintss by electroless deposition process using ethylenediamine as a cross linker

Herein, we present a method for decorating multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using ethylenediamine (en) as a linker between MWCNTs and AuNPs. The amine group in en is as growth points for synthesis of AuNPs through electrostatic attraction between the amine group...
