What Are Carbon Nanostructures (CNS)?
CNS are made up of Highly-Entangled Multi-Wall Carbon Nanotubes In a Matrix Exhibiting
Cross-Linking and Wall Sharing
TEM Of CNS
CNS are a Highly-Entangled Matrix of CNTs-No Individual MWCNTs

Raman Spectrum Of ANS CNS
12
• Three distinct bands to point out for Multi-Wall Carbon Tubular Structure as characterized in literature: – D-Band occurs around 1350 cm-1 associated with amorphous carbon (also defects)
– G-Band occurs around 1580 cm-1 associated with crystalline graphite (or CNT)
– G’ Band occurs around 2700 cm-1 should be about (2x) D-band frequency
