The CNT-inconel interface exhibhits good electrical contact as well as strong adhesion to be used directly as electrodes for super capacitors and field emitters without any post growth processing with respect to other metal substrate. Carbon nano tubes were synthesized on inconel substrate over the 10*10 mm² area by catalytic decomposition of ferrocene – Xylene mixture at 800°C. The growth process involved injecting a solution of particular concentration of ferrocene in xylene at a particular flow rate into a preheating zone of reactor. A mixture of argon and hydrogen was used to carry the xylene containing catalyst vapors upto substrate. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman Spectroscopy investigations reveal that the nanotubes are multi-wall CNTs having about 40–70 nm diameter. The possibility of growing CNTs on the metal substrates other than silicon has been confirmed from the above results.
