Abstract

Whilst generating nanotubes with modified material properties, multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNs) were found to be capable of acting as templates for WS2 nanotube growth. The MWCNs, coated with WO, by heating a mixture of MWCNs and a tungsten oxide precursor, i.e., H2WO4 were then sulphidised at 900degreesC in order to convert the WO, into WS2 layers.
