The structure of 1D CuI crystals inside SWNTs.

Journal article

Nanocomposites consisting of one-dimensional CuI crystals inside single-walled carbon nanotubes were obtained using the capillary technique. high-resolution transmission electron microscopy investigations of the atomic structure of the encapsulated 1D CuI crystals revealed two types of 1D CuI crystals with growth direction <001> and <110> relative to the bulk hexagonal CuI structure. Atomic structure models were proposed based on the high-resolution transmission electron microscop...
